How Have Things Been Recently?

[ABSpareEditor]

How has the user experience been on The AnswerBank during the past month, with reduced adverts and a more gentle hand on the moderation?

[Prudie]

I thought we all gave an email address? It's the one we get told about subscribed answers on (dear prudie, you have received a response on the answerbank...etc). Plus I used to get the newsletter, wonder what happened to that.

[THECORBYLOON]

How would someone else know the e-mail contact had been made by a known Mod?

[lankeela]

How about a league table of removed answers and if you hit three then you are removed?

[Zacs-Master]

Pasta ‘Gee Zacs...do you keep a record of these things? pastafreak Gee Zacs...do you keep a record of these things?’

If you call having a good memory a record then, yes.

[naomi24]

Prudie, only the Eds see our email addresses. If they're not around they can't help.

[naomi24]

Corby, that was a one off. It's not regular occurrence.

[gness]

Zacs. I don't see how those comments are veiled?
Veiled is when you word it in such a way that enables you to deny it was to the intended poster or, as so often happens, say that is not what I said.

[MissTerious2]

Thankfully Gness the user that did that often is now user inactive, or perhaps lurking around in disguise.

[gness]

Still here, MissT. :-)

[MissTerious2]

A bit obvious!

[Zacs-Master]

No Gness, but they do belittle which is what you also said.

chrissakes, I wd hit three and be removed before MIDDAY ! Does muhdarm realise that one of my devoirs/dictees was removed because I said he was DEAD ? - er he was by the way. Mimziness rules

[andy-hughes]

I am delighted there us no 'Mod Common Room' - there us one Mod that I refuse to interact with directly on the site - that would go double in private off -site exchanges

[Peter Pedant]

it might move some of the unedifying squabbling behind closed doors

[andy-hughes]

Peter - That presumes that the Mods 'squabble' among themselves.

They don't.

[vulcan42]

Are all Mods known to each other?

[jno]

I believe they all go together by charabanc to the annual summer outing to Southend, Vulcan.

[barry1010]

Volcan, I am only aware of the mods that have either made themselves known such as Andy-Hughes and Buen and the newer mods that are known to everyone, such as Naomi and Emmie. I am the newest mod.

There is no secret club

[naomi24]

Barry, I wouldn't do it differently. I asked to be publicly named.

[barry1010]

I don't mind being known, naomi, but I do understand the mods that want to stay under the radar. Tin hats and bunkers
