Been reading a bunch of stuff I wouldn't let by. I need somebody in here as soon as possible that will help be "moderate". This is serious and I don't want joke submissions. I feel that we have a duty to good members to allow a few jabs but also take care of things that are "over the top". For instance http://www.arboristsite.com/forestry-logging-forum/159211-13.htm#post2756403

We don't need it here. I think we all should be able to voice our opinions but we don't need to talk about violence to others. There is a fine line of crossing the line. It's not an easy job but it's a job that if you care about this place, you take it seriously and don't let friends get in the way. It's about right and wrong. I left the post there so we could see what I am talking about. We have on mod here for this forum but unfortunately I think we need more eyes. I will read applicants posts and will be able to see from there how "moderate" you are. For now PLEASE report the posts. I think many think it's "unmanly" or something to report a post. Why? Nobody knows who reports them except the mods. If a mod discloses who reports it, he won't be a mod for very long.
Let's clean this part of the site up!!
Thanks!!!

It is a tough pick, there are many regular posters with integrity. Maybe a tag team would work, we are a busy bunch. Tarzantrees, Gologit, slowp, Metals, madhatte, 2dogs,......... I could go on for a page. An astounding amount of people worth their weight in Plutonium.

The hard part is getting somebody to say yes. :haha:

Thanks for the info.

I'd be willing to give it a go. . . This website has given me a lot, and I wouldn't mind giving in return.

Unfortunately, I can't see your example post Darin, as I haven't asked for a password for the Political Forum.

I like what Randy said. . . Maybe have a few 'regulars' that are deputized, instead of just one?

I really am a professional! No matter what everyone behind their computer screen thinks. I have spent thirteen years as a very PROFESSIONAL Timber Faller...Not Axmen...not what is on this site...A professional! I am tired of getting on here and trying to share some professionalism and reading WAY too much bull####! I am done. There are plenty of other places to read some tree climbing wisdom, and the only reason I have ever got on here is to share some Timber Falling wisdom. I do not want to be any part of any socialism :)

Please to count me out. I am too moody. Right now I'm freaked out because I found a tick and it was actually crawling across the computer screen!

I HATE TICKS!! :msp_scared:

I apologize for making the sent to politics thread political. I did not realize it would offend so many at the time.

And now I must go as I feel them crawling everywhere....you know the feeling.

Greenwedge...aka Pat...who has been clearly brought onto this site as such, is my brother, and nobody has to say anything! I will defend him to doomdom, because I know him well and trust him over anyone on here, especially a bunch of sissies who want to try to make a big deal over his post! Those of you who I respect, can get ahold of me:) So long...
