Ok - firstly, I just want to say that, after reading through those other posts, its quite embarrassing to think that each and every single one has turned so childish and pathetic - a tit for tat argument that will go around in circles until the gap between the Mods and the Members grows so far apart that we can no longer see eye to eye on anything. |

I whole heartedly agree, and i'll try to conduct myself in a manner befitting |

I agree as well. I'd suggest that the members choose the members involved and the Mods nominate two of their number, and that 18 is perhaps too many members if only two Mods are going to be present. We don't want the Mods feeling outnumbered...you'd be lucky to find that many who care enough and are suitable for the debate. Also we can't nominate ourselves obviously. |

Kevin I'd have to agree with Bob on this - we cant have only one club represented. I'd suggest it should be 6 or 8 members and 2 mods. Otherwise getting together will create havoc (with time differences and too many people to organise a convenient time). |

Well then i lost, i do actually have a problem about all that |

No. It will be a nomination of who members think would represent them the best. Will that person fight for your rights, have they been a committed P&Q member, are they fair but firm... |

Maybe we should have one repressentative from each club and a few who aren't even in one |

If the whole site modified it together... how do you think thousands of people could agree on one thing - you saw the threads before! No one can agree on a few little things let alone an entire document. |

Okay but in my opinion no one reprssents me more than myself |

That club idea you just stated mo is a good idea. |

Maybe if we put the mods into one or two groups and each group gave it's repressentative direct instructions |

Crackin on, Well Bob I didn't suggest those people just becuase they are in my club, but because if you look at the list, they are all really smart and more importantly, unlike Donald and the other people you suggested, they actually got involved with the last debate and offered really well thought out ideas and responses...which shows how much they care. I wasn't trying to be unfair, quite the opposite. We need strong individually minded people who are already well aware of the issues at hand and won't be intimidated by other strong people. |

Kevin.. You find the insistant need to pick apart everything the mods do. Bob called someone a pimple poet in a joking manner and you resorted to twisting it into an offending manner. This is getting ridiculous. |

Personally, I think this whole darn thing is a bad idea. |

This is tough. As much as I love Kevin and Bob, they are both so annoyingly stubborn...I can't see having them both, or either of them, as part of this, contributing much of anything rational, reasonable, and fair...More like a game of who is the bigger guy--Oh, they like my idea more than yours. I don't like your idea because it is YOUR idea. Maybe not. They both seem to love and care for this site and its members as much, or more, than anyone. |

In my opinion.. the only people really calm enough and partcipating enough in the forums to really be proper for the nominations would be Britt, Sherry, The above poster, and Bob. They're all active in most threads. That's the shame in all of this. |

I don't understand how anyone can be emotionally affected by the discussions that take place in a poetry website with members and friends whom most of us have never met outside the constraints of technology. Maybe I should care more, I don't know. |

Haha, nothing to be sorry about, but Atticus...It is in your nature and spirit to fight, to bicker, to argue, to defend, to attack...You have the mind of a warrior, but not of a calm debater and spokesman. Perhaps if we were looking for a general or a fiery head figure of a huge civil rights movement...but to help come up with some basic, acceptable rules on a poetry website? Ehh...I can see another mod vs. member battle in the making. |

You see? Reckless and emotional. You are going to quit the site because I said something about YOU that you obviously disagree with? Case closed. |
