OK all, just to wrap things up
We sort of have an unwritten rule to answer all posts at TWF but it does get hard (not to mention boring) when we see the same posts over and over again/week in week out.

Anyway, I don't want to start this thread up again as it seems to have been resolved already.
Regards,
JP

Yikes! I thought this one had ended.

Hmm.. I know of two moderators that don't post much, but I know and understand why they aren't able to do so.

If the need be, JP will usually add an extra moderator to a busy forum to help out. If you see an issue, let JP or an admin know about it and I'm sure they will give it a look.

Guess I'm a little late. Here is my .02 worth...

Moderators are meant to watch over their forum(s), and they don't HAVE to reply to each and every post. I could show a few examples of people who are mod's and hardly post at all (not to be mean or anything). But I rarely see any posts going unanswered, actually I've only seen one or two MAYBE.

Randall: I agree with your post, but it could have been said a little more nicer(ly).

Anyway- with all this in mind, I'll try my best to answer an unanswered questions

Nobody did anything to me...

I just wanted to show my opinion, and I did so... It may have been a little harsh, but I am against 'watering down' things so that nobody is offended.

DoubleOK,

I don't think you did anything wrong to Randall... He was just making his own point

I agree, posts are left unanswered. I have tried to beef up my post replying so that I don't leave an unanswered one in my forums

i understand that the moderators have other jobs, and i thank them for running this forum because it does help me!! what i meant to say is, try not to leave messages totally unanswered, i understand some might me, but at the moment quite a few are being left that way, maybe they arent so interesting but try!!

just for all your information, i have no idea what i have done wrong to randall, but i am not going to try strike back at him, all i want to know is why he is angry!! thank you all that replied (yes even you randall)

I disagree with that sentence. Moderators are supposed to moderate the forums . That is, to keep spam out, delete inappropriate posts, keep members from fighting, and keep the forum clean overall. Moderators ARE NOT supposed to answer all questions. Appart from their special moderator functions/rights on the forums, they are regular members who might or might not answer a question whether they know the answer or not.

Randall I'm just curios, what kind of bad things did DoubleOK.com do to you? It's obvious you do not really like him, do you?
No matter why you dislike him, there is really no reason to talk to somebody like this, sure not at TWF. You remember the flame-wars we had some time ago, and none of us want them to come back. Is that ok for you?

Back to topic: Moderators ARE supposed to answer every post, that is their job.
But we are as Chad said just humans with jobs, families and so on. So please forgive us some laziness sometimes...
