Since this site consists mainly in its contributors, and not in its moderating team, I ask:

Should it be possible to vote out a moderator?

Why would you want to vote out a moderator? They have been doing a good job so far, I think.

Personally, I think not, only because if it were my team doing something they love and for no money I would have one hell of a respect for them. To me this is a site that shares “there opinions”. If we take it all with a grain of salt and take the good stuff and run with it we will all be better and live longer, a moderator is a person who presides over an assembly, meeting, or discussion: as the presiding officer of a Presbyterian governing body, or the chairman of a discussion group, are they not doing this? Is the love lost? Most of these moderators could be my kids and yours, they have a devotion to this site that's admiral and I would be pleased to have them on my team.

I don't have any complaints about the moderators here; I just have a question. How come my light bulb post was deleted?
My name doesn't mean I ski a lot. It means that I'm big, and I'm a skier.

Dang...I thought it was hilarious! In alot of forums that I've seen/posted in, it's true! I don't see how it could be offending. :huh:

I agree. If you don't like it, don't scroll all the way to the bottom of the page.
I'm not going :offtopic: , am I?
