I really wish I had a better memory. I went from APS to Gossip Rocks, and I was also on Saving Face. I was even a moderator on SF and got a lot of the background dirt about everyone. I just have swiss cheese brain. I only remember bits and pieces of things. I do remember SVZ reaching out to me to leave SF for good because he wanted me to exclusively post celebrity pictures on GR. I was a major picture poster back in the mid 2000's.

I too have been a moderator on 2 different forums. I must state that while I enjoyed it, having to remain neutral and disciplined used to raise my blood pressure. lol

Were you a mod on gossip forums or a different topic? I only did gossip, which I'm sure has to be easier than something like politics board. But most gossip forums are a lot of women. Which can be wonderful, because women can be more sensitive and caring about other people's feelings, or they can be stupidly bitchy like high school cliques.

I was a mod for on a geopolitical site and also on a technical site. None of those were Proboards. What I enjoyed were all the PM's, what I didn't enjoy was having to track down spammers and scammers.
I was *VERY* lenient but I had what I called a BULLSHIT line. I would try to warn the member in a non insulting and respectful way. But if that failed and the member continued, then it became too much trouble..i.e. bullshit. On one site we had time limitations on bans which I prefer over the nuclear option of a permanent ban.

yes, permanent bans are too....well, permanent. And back when I was a mod I swear there wasn't as many bots as there are nowadays.

i joined GR in 2011 after lurking for years. i figured i'd actually post on the regular if i registered, but alas and alack that was not the case. i post on the highly irregular, instead. thanks to greysfang and all who made this new site possible. I joined the same year and had the same posting style. 👍🏼

PB was a fucking nightmare control freak without even a hint of a sense of humour.

I imagine PB is arguing several people to the death while putting her persecution complex on full display on some other message board as we speak.

Jeggings. Cautiously embraced. Yes, she's the one.

Who had the deal-breakig fat fingers? That was FemmeFetal. I was reading some Duggar bs on Reddit the other day & I think I came across GatorLady’s blog. The multiple allergy comments were a bit of a giveaway.
