OPEN DISCUSSION BOARD

[JLS]

Pokersam has shown no credibility.

And he has shown no leadership or skills as a board Moderator.

On Saturday, August 17, 2013 1:32:31 PM, Pokersam posted the following contest regulation:

All entries must be posted no later than midnight on Sunday Aug. 25, 2013.

Then, after northam43 insisted that Pokersam post his prediction first, Pokersam responded (my bold for emphasis):

I posted mine in the Trading Pit already so I can't change it. I will post it here before the deadline. You are not going to post one are you? I really didn't expect you to. Your stupid system is no help to you … In the final analysis you and your system are losers … Come on, dummy, no guts no glory.

Then Pokersam went on to ridicule northam43 further in later messages.

Finally, Pokersam wrote of himself in the message board Intro (my bold for emphasis):

It is not flattering to a man's character to yield to his baser instincts and take pleasure in humiliating those of lesser abilities.

Could there possibly be a man of great abilities who makes such an arrogant statement in his confessions? No. It makes his confession hollow.

Further on in the message board Intro, Pokersam wrote:

I have placed many of these individuals on ignore and I will endeavor to be free enough to leave them there.

That statement begs the question: why is a Moderator of an Open Board putting anybody on that board on ignore? That certainly would not be a Moderator of any great abilities. A good Moderator is supposed to be able to listen to anybody, and actively and effectively moderate them when moderation is required. Failing to do that, a good Moderator would realize his limitations and remove himself as Moderator.

Furthermore, the post outlining the contest was made a yellow sticky note by none other than Pokersam.

So, Poker, where is your prediction? It's way past August.

Or, if there is no contest, don't you think you should take the sticky note down? A person like yourself, a person of great abilities, should know to do those things without being told. I'm pretty sure that a good board Moderator would know to take that sticky note down.
