1. APO
2. My style of moderation would be like this: In a nutshell, discussions and debates are welcomed, flames are not.
I will not hesitate to delete a post that is a personal attack or lock a thread that degenerates into a meaningless flame war. The problem I have with discussion boards in general is that people oftentimes don't know how to debate facts without trying to sidetrack folk into baiting them to engage in an all-out flame war. I have learned that this is their way of saying they lost the debate or that their argument is indeed weak. It is also the reason why I choose not to engage in discussion with certain GCers. That is why I am not too wild about posting in the Greek Life forum, but ironically the ones who start the flame wars with me aren't the NIC/NPC folk, but the NPHC members. Actually, ever since I been on GC (6 years), I have never had so much as one beef with any non-NPHC member. Go figure...
Anyhow, flagrant and repeated trolls and flamers I would turn over to the administrator to be banned for being a nuisance. I'm too old for a lot of silly mess.
In a nutshell, my "platform" would be: "You will discuss and debate constructively by debating the facts or opinions derived thereof or you will not discuss here at all".
