Well, we didn't have a lot of people nominated or volunteer, so I am just going to appoint all the ones that did.


Congratulations to The J and WWBG. I'm putting diverdown in here too, as he has graciously offered his experience to me.

EDIT: I forgot to say, this is the YM board.

The good, the bad and the ugly of it all....a short voting window and the Christmas weekend. I didn't get a vote myself since I was busy from late Thursday until today. I didn't even get a chance to turn the home 'puter on this weekend.

Overall, I think they will all do ok. As long as they keep their moderating to controlling personal attacks/insults. I hope it doesn't get as stringent as the old board was such as deleting a post because it had a cuss word. That was a bit too much IMHO. They wanted you to act like an adult but delete posts with a cuss, both obvious and "thinly veiled". Well, news flash.....adults sometimes cuss.

Ok...stepping off my soap box now.

I understand the Women in Red board is starting out as "self moderating".
I do realize, that would not work here.

I have no problem with "Cuss words", in the right places ,to make a point but there are some that I can do with out and I think most of us , in fact who am I kidding, we all know which ones to leave out..and even useing a lot of cuss words , well..not really necessary is it?
"Damn right " I said

Don't they start off every morning with a good cry and a group hug?
I don't think they ever heard of tough love over there.

No, not necessary, but not deserving of a delete either...unles it's nothing but verbal diarrhea and makes absolutely no point.....IMHO of course.
