Completely understand, but surely if a moderator's posts showed that they didn't portray the virtues you've stated in the first paragraph (common sense & fairness in particular), that their position should be reviewed?

Despite your sig, I've pm'd you.

There we go again. What does this post even mean?

Just today, I have started threads on Barla/Winter Rugby & RL in Spain. Is this the work of a wind-up account? Maybe I should take crap pictures of building sites in order to be accepted?

Glad to hear it.

To be a moderator you need merely to enforce an interpretation of the AUP that bears passing resemblance to common sense, be moderately moderate, fairly fair and check the site regularly. Or have done these things in the past, and not yet been removed during the infrequent but brutal mod culls.
We're participants as well as refs, which is kind of difficult, but a moderator's posts shouldn't be held to different standard, IMO. We don't think we're better than you - well, not all of you at least.

Why don`t you have a bitching thread? That way everybody can slag each other off with abandon.You could invite us black and whites over,we could have a field day.

The best comment I have heard do far has to be this morning on BBC breakfast.
The sports reporter with so sends of humour said that England were UNLUCKY to go out on penalties.
I pretty much called her a stupid female dog and said that if that was the height of her knowledge then perhaps she should go back to the office and just make the coffees and let the men have a go (I am not actually sexist BTW but is was such a stupid comment that I couldn't let it pass).
My wifes reaction was that she agreed and that some women really don't help their gender.

That's a shocking, ill-thought sexist statement that could only have been uttered by someone with underlying sexist tendencies.

Your immediate blurt if it had been a man uttering such a fairly BBC-esque placidity would not be "stupid man-bitch who should get back into the garage to oil his crankshaft", would it?

It is my firm belief that a persons's true character emerges in the words they spout impulsively.

Dont see what is so wrong with it.

England so never deserved to go thru absolute rubbish, Italy were unlucky not to win by 4 goals, worst thing hodgson did was bring Rooney back totally over rated imo

Absolutely, now get the tea on, and if you get your ironing done in time, us hunter gatherers will try and explain the offside rule to you.
