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.

I don't know what happened but I think I'm glad I missed it.

TOTALLY agree about our awesome mods. Thanks guys!

I do not know either. I think the vast majority don't either. It is good to see that there is a willingness to correct and be corrected. Good stuff!!

I've had to be reprimanded once due to language and it was well deserved. 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.

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.
