This is the job of a moderator.

I think the moderators here have things well in hand.

They do a good job of allowing freedom of expression and for
a certain of wiggle-room when it comes to off-topic posts.

At the same time, personal attacks and overtly disruptive behaviour are
not tolerated.

I submit that the struggle with our own shadow is the real issue here, not some imagined invasion of NWO dark agents who are out to destroy us. We are doing a pretty good job of that ourselves.

I also think that one of the reasons we are seeing so many off-topic posts
is that there are only so many new developments on a day to day basis.

You can only discuss the same tired topics for so long before they are pretty beat to death. Being human, when our members get bored, what do people do? They create threads and post pictures about cats, Walmart, and Keanu Reeves.

I believe alot of the skirmishes that occur here are due to the fact that some of our members are lonely(standing alone in their knowledge if not physically alone), and are hungry for attention-any attention, they can get from other members-even negative attention.

Yes, we have differences. And everyone has their own reasons for being here.
The Ground Crew are supposed to represent the Forces of Light, correct?

If someone really believes they represent the forces of love and light, they will endeavor to treat someone as they wish to be treated.

I can see your point here..I feel the same way about the way things are run around here...the mods have a big job and such.
However there is a line that has been getting crossed here. See what you feel, to have a picture like that posted on your profile page, with no explanation....no good reason..then tell me how you feel at that point.
That picture, I gave it no power...however it was intended to have such...just the same. It is not what we came here for....at least not why I am here...and I'm sure there are many here that would agree with that.
I don't believe anyone is asking for removal as such...just consideration is all we ask. And to be allowed to express ourselves without blatant disruption...or side tracking.
It is not what this forum was built for.
