Cruzbay... I'm willing to make the argument that the quality of moderation is extremely important in setting the overall tone of the board. I think Rink has been doing a great job. I find Ephud's posts at least as intelligent as many other poster's on the board. This is not to say that he is always correct, and, for that matter I'm not sure that I've read a poster who has never been incorrect... I wish that some of the more technically savvy posters would jump in a little more often in support of Elmer when he is arguing technical points and is correct in doing so... And I'm not so sure I'm in favor of people using symbols as a fill in the blank kind of thing when referring to another poster as these can always be misinterpreted (or worse, interpreted correctly) and become inflammatory... More importantly, I feel as though Ephud is conducting himself properly on the board (at least for now) and others should attempt to show the same type of restraint. In short, I would not be opposed to moderation which tended to favor those in the minority view so as to "insulate" them from the "enthusiasm" of the masses in order to create a more balanced board...
