For the others who implied what it takes to be a Moderator ( ), there are many times I have done things....by leaning backwards and helping out in order to bring about peace and accord, etc., and many times, it is can indeed be a 'thankless' duty. However, I don't hold that to anyone, afterall, life's precious, making the best of it is about what I do and strive for--I much rather see a majority getting along than seeing bitterness and discord with one another which surely can drag others into it. I think the majority would like to see that more often, of course, every once awhile, some of us may have stepped out of line, but if they're willing to admit the errors of their ways...all's good and move forward without having to drag it on and on....

As for 'resigning'....nah...that's not the case nor will it be.

As for the moderators, we cannot moderate AllDeaf 24/7, with over 10,000 threads currently active or inactive.

I work full-time, often with overtime. I am also in the process of getting ready for an out-of-state wedding, a regional softball tournament, and finalizing plans for an upcoming cruise. In between times, I am trying to get the 2008 AllDeaf Caucus up and running.

RoadRunner has a wedding to plan, three rowdy boys to oversee, and a house to get ready.

Vampyrox is probably stuck in Finals week in college.

Jolie_77 works full time, and cannot go on the computer during the day.

Alex works, also, and has other forums to oversee.

We may not always be able to get back immediately, and there will be times when we will not be able to answer - or not even answer a question here or there.

You are all capable of moderating yourselves - there is no excuse for complaining that there are no moderators available whenever you need them. It's just like police - they're never around when you need them. The police depends on us to stick to the law, and that enables them to go after the serious faction that are the true lawbreakers.

Do you want to be considered a true forum troublemaker? I don't think you want to be - you are all intelligent members, and capable of following the forum rules without complaining.

Think about it.
