Perryay -- I do think I know some of what you speak, but I would soften that stance some myself because I think that being a Mod changes a person's relationship to this Board. I do realize that you can go back a couple years and find posts from GP that may be diametrically opposed to his current posts. However, we all present our views based on our current situation and current knowledge base. It is possible , in my mind, to see how a person could have one set of opinions as a member, but then change that set of opinions when more information became available to him as a Mod. He may see things that he didn't see before or may see the same things in a different light.
It is obvious that being a Mod changes a person or at least changes that person's relationship to the Board based on the half life of the Mods and the seemingly changed views of some of those who stay.

woah! that was deep, I never really put that much thought into it. Believe it or not, the same shit still bugs the hell outta me, but now I have a job to do first and can't be as outspoken as I used to be. Plus I have learned that I try not to sweat the small stuff and other stuff is completely beyond my control. Sometimes a little bit slips out now and then, but the voices in my head keep yelling at me to keep quiet.

Taskmaster - I can appreciate that sentiment, at the same time, the new Mod should have an appreciation of what it's like without that new found knowledge base. The new Mod also should not go on a vendetta against members who's views differ from his. BTW Taskmaster - why could I believe that your past moniker may have also been mentioned earlier in this thread. Happy New Year.

GP - I'd love to believe that's true. But all I see is you sweating the small stuff and carrying on against members who don't like your style of moderating.

What specific views have differed that caused me to go on this so called vendetta?

Our battles notwithstanding Perryay, i'm sure you're a good guy. Nevertheless, i really do think you need to do a better job of accepting the fact that the person whose views you disagree with isn't necessarily always the one "starting shit".
Perhaps i'm speaking out of turn since i don't know what's gone on behind the scenes, but from my perspective, since becoming a mod GP has been more than tolerant and reserved in his dealings with those who have been pounding on him on an almost daily basis.
At least his public dealings. And believe me, it pains me to say anything nice about the guy. But in this case, i think i need to.
