I don't know about you guys, but I'm attracted to goats. Only the female ones, mind you.

I accept and respect your identity as long as it's not dumb shit like "identifying as a vaccinated attack helicopter".

How about driving that Goat? ;) The GTO was once nicknamed the Goat.

We've already discussed this ad nauseam and there's no point in going through the motions again.

I frequent the Unexplained Mysteries forum, and a few others I occassionally go to, and each one is moderated in a different level of checks and balances. I do take interest in forum politics (cautiously), but when a moderator asks me to do something, I adhere to what they request or suggest. I don't think the forum is overmodded, IMO it's managed in the right pace.

I believe forums should allow members to ask questions to the site staff when an issue arises. I used to run my own based on a cartoon series "Totally Spies" 5 years ago and usually the banned are spambots, and had been fair with members in rule violations. I witnessed a fair share of "e-drama" on them, yet I hadn't seen anything on AAroads of a dramatic immature fashion.

I am aware that this is an old thread, but I don't think so. Personally, I think that the mods let a whole lot more slide than I would if I were a mod.

You mean like restarting 8-year-old threads?

Um kind of. I think that bumping threads is allowed on the forum as long as you add something to the conversation. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong. I bumped the 6-year-old thread on pathetic state clinches and it started some new discussion which was good.

You're getting a little impatient with new posts, aren't you?

Definition of "necro": Bringing back an old post WITHOUT ADDING SUBSTANTIVE CONTENT.

Seriously. Dude. It's not hard. Even for you.

I don't think this is an appropriate topic for revival, for reasons not least of which include the fact that when it was created we had an entirely different set of moderators. (Notice how many people on the first couple of pages are now sporting some form of mod banner in their user info block.) And we've had the "is this forum too moderated" discussion in dozens of other iterations, so there's really no reason to revive this one in particular.
