Default So new!

Thanks to the mods things are so new now, I love it, yesterday is gone and I can set my furniture anywhere I want. All my sins have been forgiven and paint talk can go on without a blemish. I feel so free and paint talk can stand proud now. Sorry but this is what I don't like about the new mods, they love you and behind your back they take over to make themselves looks so nice. you have to let people work problems out and not wash everything under the carpet. Are you really our friends?

Here you go John, have fun.

Well, that was fun!


By the way, that is what I titled the new thread I made in the trash bin for the 158 posts I deleted from Daniels thread.

I don't understand why you don't let people work things out.

This is not right at all, and it will only lead to a boring forum.

John,
I don't quite get what you mean by working things out?
Often we let a thread go while everyone is having a good time, but the next day, no one else wants to wade through 8 pages of banter. So one of us goes thru and tries to clean it up so the thread can stay on topic.
If this bothers some, let us know, I am sure we could just move them all to off topic instead of the trash bin.
Seriously, the mods have plenty of other things we'd rather do!

Reread this in the morning and let me know if you'd like all the posts to stay.
I'm going to bed, Good night.

PS. I love you too!

Well it's my bad, I thought you deleted some of a post, but now I know I was wrong, please forgive me, but you guy's have deleted more than you should sometimes. You are human, don't worry we all make mistakes sometimes, for the most part you are doing a good job.In your place I would be worse than you. lol

I guess what I should ask is, just how long do the mods stay up at night? You know they are getting older and sometimes go to sleep a little earlier with age.

Maybe there needs to be a support group for everyone who suffers angst due to the mods?

Like a 12 post program.

And lots of good coffee.

I think you might have the wrong impression John, I am not all nice to your face and then posting gag reels of people on youtube. We make calls around here and we try to keep things flowing. like Chris said once a thread reaches 5 pages of banter it is usually derailed pretty badly and either we call it a lost cause or we clean it up, many of my own posts have fallen to the magic eraser as well. Nothing personal.
