    Mr BS. The name also seems rather appropriate.

    Ban's for doxing (or similar)

    If you get a sniff that Mr B might have signed up on this site under a different guise, let me know. He is now showing his true colours.

    The_Doc_Man has become upgraded to Super Moderator

    As we have discussed before on the forum, moderating is a bit like herding cats. There are lots of different personalities at play with opposing opinions. A mod often has to make a subjective judgements on whether or not to intervene, knowing that can irritate people or cause friction. It can...

    The_Doc_Man has made great efforts to moderate these forums, helping to keep them going and protect them from outside forces. And sometimes that includes making difficult and unpopular choices. For this reason, I am thinking he should go from Moderator to Super Moderator. Your thoughts on a...
