and furthermore:

Gretchen: Regina, you're wearing sweatpants. It's Monday.
Regina: So...?
Karen: So that's against the rules, and you can't sit with us.
Regina: Whatever. Those rules aren't real.
Karen: They were real that day I wore a vest!
Regina: Because that vest was disgusting!
Gretchen: You can't sit with us!

I think the reply is also sufficiently appropriate in this situation:

"You're being a cheer-tator Torrence, and a pain in my ass!"

for what it's worth, the thread asking "why" was moved because of the vulgar language being used.

It is possible to make a point without throwing around the F-bomb all the time.

However, a bunch of us are still wondering why the thread that started all of this was moved, and she has yet to explain why.

If they want to clean up F-bombs, that's what the edit button's for.

Moving them's just plain lazy and cowardly.

DARN TERRIFIC.

^^^ I agree. You can take that up with DA and the other mods who apparently don't believe in "cleaning up" and reopening threads.

Personally I feel if the original thread was cleaned up after the hollywin comments the LL thread would have been perfectly fine.

i edited the above in order that i could agree with it. i have seen moderators just about defend and protect posters who any general poster would identify as a troll or sockpuppet. and permit them to hang around. but others seem to take charge and take care of matters like that. why?

Agreed. And on a positive note, a moderator took the initiative (don't know which one) in the Recruitment stories thread, deleted a handful of posts that were pretty heated, and made the thread workable and readable again. I honestly think that's what a majority of us would like to see. Not moving it to a mods only corner, not deleting the thread outright. Heck, I think a bunch of us wouldn't mind (and we've said this on the other thread) that we're not averse to having a thread locked on occasion. But not what has been happening lately.

That should be unacceptable. Is one mod's arrogance and abuse of power worth all of this unrest? I think the Mod Squad needs some reformulating.

I agree. And a LOT of people agree (both mods and non-mods).

Sorry, but you're wrong. I asked John to be de-modded. You can ask John or any other mod who was there at the time and they can cite the post in MC where I gladly asked to be de-modded.

I'm not sure why you're still obsessed with attacking me when I've said nothing to you in years, but have a nice day anyway, Rudey.
