I go out on one date night and miss a bunch stuff! I'm sorry to see flexie de-mod, but if this is anything like that other place hopefully she will be back.
Because of the quick pace of ML and our propensity to attract trolls, I do think we need at least two mods. I will be more than happy to put a sticky nominating post at the top followed by a voting post.
I would like to remain a mod. I'm not a super poster, but I am a regular and I haven't done a bad job yet. What says you, ML?

i think you're good. around long enough to recognize real shit that needs to be taken care of but still able to be impartial and let flamings happen when necessary.

Wait for Monday. But I don't think we need them. No mod will be perfect 100% of the time. I like the mods we have.
And I can tell Flexy was just feeling motherly/defensive over Anther, who has fallen so very quickly from grace. Modding isn't the most awesome job and no one will do it better - especially with all the unappreciation we show - than Flexie.
Well, I think flex leaving is a bit "cut ones nose off to spite their face". Flex, don't leave. We all like you, just thought you were out of line on one thing. No biggie and no reason to leave!!!

Someone implied I was fat in a post and that wasn't edited. Was it because I am or that no one cared enough to do anything about it? I'm ok with either BTW.

i honestly don't see that as something that needs to be moderated. repeated harassment, yes, but not one comment. what if immm ever finds her way here? she would need her own personal mod to follow her around.

Well, I do think we should continue to pile on Anther but I agree with Gracie that a nicer person -Flexy - would feel bad. ML mod is an awful and thankless job though so I see why FB doesn't want the continued abuse. Still. I wish she would come back.

I think you should be a mod. I'd find that hilarious.

There's a part of me that thinks I would be a good mod, but at the same time I really don't want to volunteer because I kind of like the fact that I've never been one of the super high-profile regulars.

See, this is so true. That's why I loved the idea of nominated people, voting and seeing if they would accept. I also thought flexi was a great mod on The Nest, not sure if she's up for it anymore after what happened. But either way, like others stated, we need more mods.

No fucking way would I moderate. I will give BumppKathleen to someone else to use to moderate but I want to feel free to attack people without having any sort of ethical obligation to hold back or rise above the fray.

I'm with you on this. I want to be free to be a cranky and mean bitch whenever I want.
