Who defines "useless crap?" With all due respect, that is clearly a subjective determination, and you seem to have made up your mind already.
***A thread about burlesque is useless to some, but beneficial or of interest to others.
*** A review of a male member (DED or SKF, for example) is "useless" to any hobbyist on this board - unless they're planning to schedule an appointment with him, which is doubtful.
*** A member's posts about the number of p411 okays he has is useless to any other hobbyist.
BUT ALL provide entertainment to some, and promote board interest and presence. These seemingly useless threads are not only allowed, but encouraged by the very Rules governing this board.
The same may be said about the overused
"+1" (Great, we now know someone agrees) or
"Check your PMs" (we all NEED to know that someone PMd another). They are equally "
useless," if the definition is, as you state:
"[if it doesn't] add up to me figuring out how I should give it to Carnelqtee, Jemma, Holly and the long list of to do or re-do's I have."
Are all of those posts to be deleted and discouraged too?
As to shit stirring, I am in agreement with you. No place for those whose sole purpose is doing so.
I welcome you as a moderator and appreciate your service. I am confident you will put your stated personal dislike for some posters aside, and "moderate" fairly and impartially.

See, that's what I'm talking about - moderation without letting personal feelings and unsubstantiated opinions interfere with the job with which you were entrusted.
Sorry, mojo - but that's just wrong, IMHO! You obviously are unaware about what is shared backchannel between members who know and trust one another and who (for reasons which should be respected, and NOT criticized) do NOT review. There are other methods of sharing but it's people who make statements such as the preceding one who usually are not the recipients of such shared intel..
Not picking a fight. Just stating fact.

Now, THAT's moderating, at it's best. Thanks.

I dare say if chest pounding
"is the shit needs to keep out of the Co-Ed," should not the remainder of your quoted sentence be deleted
?
How does "Check your PMs" fit within that definition? not sayin' - just askin'

Lest I be chastised for only finding fault (albeit intended solely as constructive criticism), this is another fine example of EXCELLENT and effective moderation. Well said.
