Hi!!!
Long time, is right ...
re: "... I don't hold out much hope for a rather broad cross section of humanity gathered together under the umbrella of anonymity."
That's a good assessment. It's interesting so many folks, some of whom have posted on iHub for a number of years, lack the wit to grasp that simple truth. Instead of thinking, they blame it on Matt ... a reaction I find offensive.
I've suggested before that those who are unhappy with the actions of board moderators try to write a rule that would correct the circumstances that annoy them and post it here where it can be reviewed, amended, honed, and otherwise made presentable. So far, no-one has attempted it.
As far a I can see, all the complainers are saying is that the boards should be moderated the way they want them moderated. For my part, I like Matt's way better.
