Who is the administrator and why is it impossible to get in touch with them?!

mashcov you may be confusing the Administrator with a Moderator.


Whilst the Administrator has final say on content (as he created, maintains and pays for the site), the majority of the work nourishing this happy community resource is done by Moderators.


These are a group of generous, tireless and dedicated volunteers who set themselves the not unreasonable target of doing what's best for the community.


That means that certain types of behaviour are considered unacceptable, and it may be that your previously liberal use of ALL CAPITALS and aggressive use of the 'C' word means you haven't worked out where those boundaries lie.


That may account for your deleted thread, any 'investigations' you choose to indulge in will teach you nothing more than that ;-)

I'm sure he's quaking in his boots.


As others have said (but you apparently chose to ignore), he's just a guy doing this for free, he owes you zilch.

In general the moderators do so with a very light touch - posts are removed which are offensive or may be deemed libellous or sub-judice, threads are removed when they are seen as being off-topic (i.e. not really to do with ED), threads are blocked/ removed (mainly blocked) when a similar thread is already alive, threads are shifted to other boards when they are not appropriate for the board they have been posted on (typically this covers ads and announcements of events etc. on this board). Spam advertising is also removed.


Sometimes the moderators do think a thread is off topic when others (particularly the OP) don't - and they have been known to revise their decisions, but in general, as I said, they offer a very light touch.


Often, I guess, their actions are triggered by reports by other readers, but they won't remove posts/ threads (if they meet other criteria) simply because they, or someone else, disagrees with them, at least in my experience.

I'm very keen to know how you plan to investigate further though.


Are you going to use a laser beam to turn yourself in to particles, then travel the world wide web seeking answers?


Cool.

      Should facial recognition be mandatory for retail outlets?

      By beansprout · Posted

      Most of the groceries shops in Lordship Lane have a security presence…curious thing is I and another woman recently saw a shop lifter lift and not pay for a couple of packet of steaks, veg and bottle of wine..  Literally walked Pat the tills, one member of staff and security guard despite someone else going in front by a few people and mentioning person in question! I have to say, speechless and admired their bravado - I would not have the guts and knowing my luck, if I accidentally didn’t put something tru the till despite receipt would prob get stopped! Yes, worked with families, homeless and other people who were struggling for food so I do understand why they do it.. sad when you think about it, that in this day and age, all sorts of c people need assistance and help from community in general, food banks, olio etc….

      Major Incident?

      By Penguin68 · Posted

      And another one, number 6, has just gone passed as well!  I presume that the LTNs are blocking them from a more useful route. Or the surrounding road works.
