[QUOTE="MrOrange1970, post: 2559839, member: 80547"]I will agree that being a moderator has to be a thankless job and I have no desire to have anyone review my original post or whatnot. I appreciate the work moderators do to keep the boards from being rife with arguments. That said; as a professional and educated person, getting a message with the text "Read the Rules!" tends to raise my ire. I will reiterate that nothing I posted espoused any political affiliation. I was raised to not argue politics or religion as these are topics that never end well unless everyone agrees (good luck with that). It was the tone of desertgems personal message to me that I found insulting. Maybe I need a thicker skin but I feel that if one is given the power of moderator, they could at least be polite if they feel something posted not within the rules. I treat others on this board with utmost respect and only expect the same in return, even if one is in disagreement. Anyway, that's it. Nothing more to say.[/QUOTE]
