    Default Taking a break....

    So, I dont think Ill be around for a while.

    Im not happy with what I find to be a conservative bias in the moderating here.

    For the first time in the many years Ive been around two of my threads were moved and not for the reasons that I was given.

    One was called a Gun thread but it was not... the other was called a flame thread and I explained the intent which was not to flame, it was a clear point I was making about the advent of the ability to bar people from specific threads.

    I will likely come back after the bad taste has dissolved.

    he's not leaving cause of trolls, he's leaving because I moved one of his threads 3 weeks ago, into a subforum that was still getting just as much foot traffic as anywhere else.

    And I guess another mod moved another one of them.

    I like jarod though and he's a chill dude, so hopefully this break will be good for him
