Mangoo,
Disagreeing more would be difficult.
The posters make up the board. That's why they're called moderators instead of facillitators. A lot of Mods can't get this simple fucking idea through their heads and then start ego-tripping. I like Rip plenty but a regular V poster should have been made Mod. I said the exact same thing when DP was modded and feel he was more of a Y board guy all along.
A mod should make sure people don't abuse the forum or create circumstances that prevent the largest number of posters possible fron enjoying it. Ron doesn't care about the alphabet boards beyond the x because they'll cry and moan until he gives in. If he did care about the alphabet boards there would have been changes made when 240 went ballistic, BSB wanted to merge it with the Y, "bluto" went merge crazy and moving threads. He didn't even give a fuck when Kiwi refused to mod and all the V posters asked for Rude to be reinstated. Just figured everyone would move to the Y so why bother?
Considering the past disregard of the V & Y boards, Ron making Rip a mod makes perfect sense. he probably figures she's modding elsewhere without any real complaints so what's the harm since unhappy posters have 40 other forums anyways.
This isn't personal. I'm just saying you guys shouldn't care because Ron doesn't.
