Are we not emos? Fuck. Should I stop cutting myself?
The reason why I am discussing this is because I believe it is beneficial to the advancement of the forum to get any issues out in the open, where they can be dealt with.While I agree with you Miaou, I don't see anything constructive happening by bringing that up again.
Shit, you mean nobody bothered telling you?

If you do agree with me, then I take it you do see there are some existing issues but you don't think there is a way to improve them. My point is that, unless we talk about them, then for sure they are not going to be solved.
I agree that the merger between S&P and conditioning was handled poorly. I don't however see the benefit in revisiting that particular issue. I also don't any issues this forum may have as being the fault of the mods.
The best way to improve this forum is for people to either contribute postively, either by sharing information or humor, asking intelligent questions, creating good threads and so on.
Everyone here should be generally happy with how this place is moderated even if there is always room for improvement. There is very little mod involvement, and the members can direct the discussion how they want. Most veteran and regulars posters are given a lot of latitude. And even if the mods disagree with each other about how to mod, there is still a presumptive rule to give the regulars here a lot of leeway with the general forum rules.
T-nation and crossfit, for example, are highly censored forums.
At Sherdog, we have a "mod sucks" thread every two or three months. The fact that you can do this is a sign of a relatively healthy forum.
I am kind of worried because I don't see the traditional "sarcasm against stupid threads by people who are obviously too bored to do a search of their own before posting (or at the very least read the stickies and do some limited lurking before starting a thread of their own)" in that list of yours.
So what you're not going to start banning people for especially bad gammer or spelling?
So I should ban you for spelling grammar as "gammer?" Come on, dude. You have been around long enough to know that moderators have historically given S&P regulars a lot of leeway.

It wasn't meant as a criticism, it was an attempt at humor. And I'm ashamed of having not caught "gammer". Although I did say especially bad, and I wasn't being entirely serious.
