ORIGINAL: AquaticSub Given that you don't understand how freedom of speech works and are comparing chat room mods to a group of people who slaughtered 6+ million men, women, and children I really don't think you have room to talk in terms of intelligence and/or education. That's a very measured response. I was going to run with "oh put a sock in it you whiny little dumbass" but your response is better [;)] As a side note though, and on the understanding that I've never visited the chat rooms on CM, it's been my experience that a) the forum mods here are, as you've said, generally excellent, and b) chat room mods do often seem, sooner or later, to get a little drunk on their own power - I've seen it happen in many different "types" of chat rooms (i.e. non BDSM "hobby" ones included). One of the most spectacular "eruptions" I've ever witnessed online happened in a chat room, where a mod went 5-ways apeshit at all and sundry. "Power corrupts ..." ... but then again, if that were true, the forum mods would be worse, and they aren't. Quite the reverse in fact. A very measured and responsible lot, from what I've observed thus far at least. "Fair" is the word that springs to mind.
