chaosmagnet Sheriff Carpal Tunnel Registered: 12/03/09 Posts: 3842 Loc: USA	Originally Posted By: MDinana (though I didn't get a warning, I feel like I probably should have!) I removed the anatomy term and honestly was too tight for time to send you a "gentle reminder" immediately, and it slipped my mind. So, here it is: Don't do that. chaosmagnet

Surely the most thankless of jobs, but at times utterly essential for our little community. There are plenty of other fungus pits for political punch-ups; let's stick to the high road. I don't know what happened but I think I'm glad I missed it. TOTALLY agree about our awesome mods. Thanks guys! _________________________ Mom & Adventurer You can find me on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCT9fpZEy5XSWkYy7sgz-mSA

It is good to see that there is a willingness to correct and be corrected. Good stuff!! _________________________ "Its not a matter of being ready as it is being prepared" -- B. E. J. Taylor

I hang out on another forum also where the language would make a sailor blush and I had a momentary lapse and forgot which forum I was on at the time. Another thanks to the mods for a tireless, thankless job. I ran my own forum for a while a couple of years ago and know exactly what goes into keeping one civil.

chaosmagnet Sheriff Carpal Tunnel Registered: 12/03/09 Posts: 3842 Loc: USA	For the first time since I came on board as a moderator at ETS I am becoming angry. I've never banned a poster for anything other than spam but I came close today. (If you have not received a PM from me, you are not the cause of my displeasure.) POLITICAL NEWS, DISCUSSION AND COMMENTARY ARE NOT APPROPRIATE ON ETS. chaosmagnet
