I like the mods moderations most of the time. Helps keep me in line. It can be hard reading on a iPhone with reading dyslexia! Sometimes, I have to re read things several times. Or I jumble up what I read and respond to the wrong part of the OP topic.
It also makes it hard to read long posts with no paragraph breaks. If u notice my posts are usually short or have lots of breaks. I do it for me, but I am sure there are other folks who have the same or worse problems.

In the past, I posted in the wrong section or didn't read something correctly and it got fixed automatically or deleted with no warning or explanation. It can sometimes hurt your feelings but that is life. I did send a message to one of the mods in the past. I asked what I did wrong. They were surprisingly helpful and explained things well. I was a low post member at the time and it probably looked like I was doing thigs on purpose.

I also get it, they don't have time to play games with people.
I have also learned here that there are so many different languages that humor doesn't always translate well. Not to mention, regional jokes or puns arent always funny to everyone.

The best part of this forum is that there is little petty, out of hand, childish bickering that goes on for pages. Now, I love to cuss. I just prefer to do it at work and home. Lol
But I have probably digressed a little.

:banned::banned:

What a great read! :)

Thinking back to when I first became a member, I remember reading people's posts being discounted and their low post count being mentioned as why they didn't know what they were writing about. That was really offensive to me. I'm thankful I haven't read any of that type of snobbery for many years.

Lol, I had a double take. I thought you said that your favorite flashlight was Fark.com for a second there. Heh.

In that case you would probably want to endorse Uranusfire!

saponification fiasco.

"saponification" is the only thing I remember from CHEM 115.

Leech water through white wood ash, mix with a fat. Now you have soap!

If this is your first Soap Club, then you HAVE to soap! :) It's like the first monkeys shot off into space! :)

His name was Robert Paulsen. :)

Saponine occurs naturally in water chestnuts. Extract it by thinly slicing them and leeching water through a stack of them. You can use a soap bubble blower wand to blow bubbles with the liquid. :) You can use it fresh like soap, bacteria want to invade if you let the solution sit at all.

The first rule of Soap Club is to talk about it. The second rule of Soap Club....

:) :) :)

Shut UP.

There is no such thing as soap club.

:twak:

And we're kicking you out if you mention it again.

Keep it up and someone may take your bulbs!

In clubs that would not include non-existant soap clubs, if you take my bulbs, I'm actually just taking my own bulbs...because you'd be me.

Maybe he thinks this is BladeForums? :whistle:

... or someone just being a bit trollish. If they're going to make an accusation, they need to stand by it and provide proof to back it up. Otherwise it's nothing but trolling... and that *IS* a ban-able offense.

Still waiting for those names... :popcorn::candle::whistle: ... not holding my breath... :ironic:

Nope!

Examples please?

+

Endless posts deleted for not much more than him not liking the post, or it rubbed him the wrong way.
.. not only mine, but other members in which I was thoroughly pissed off to see their posts disappear

I really don't care if Empath doesn't like me, a post or whatever is bugging him in general,, he wildly over-steppes his authority (maybe it's control thing/power or lack of??

Trust me when I say there are other people here who think the same
