No argument here, and I concur.
It's just difficult to maintain compliance when you don't know where the current line is at any given time ...

I reckon that's where the disconnect lies. Differ'nt strokes fer differ'nt folks, I reckon.

What some of you don't seem to get or understand is that even as a moderator, we might handle things differently were it our own site, but it isn't and we try the best we know how to follow our guidelines and keep things on an even keel. There are other sites out there where pretty well anything goes and this site wants to set itself apart from that. If someone feels too restricted, they should check out those other sites and see if one suites them better. We have many members that are here just because this site is "friendlier and cleaner". We also have members here that are pretty high up at Ford and we have received recognition for what the site accomplishes.
Since we are a site operated for profit, and exist for advertising purposes, I guarantee that IB would make an overhaul, should we not be doing things as they wish. I have made this same or a similar speech in the past, but I hope it helps some, especially with the newer members.

That's what I've struggled with. The line seems blurry sometimes. There have been times that things I've posted got whacked when I kinda, sorta figgered something else I said that I perceived to be 'worse' would've gotten the mod edit but was allowed to stay.

Ever watch Andy Griffith? Remember Otis? Well, this reminds me of an episode where Barney arrested Otis (along with everybody else in town). So, Andy questions Otis, and it goes thusly:
Barney Fife: Andy, I've this one dead to rights! Otis was drunk. I even gave him a test. I drew a line on the sidewalk and told him to walk it. You know what he said?
Andy Taylor: What?
Barney Fife: He asked me what line. I've got this one right, Andy. Otis was drunk!
Andy Taylor: That right, Otis? Did you ask Deputy Fife what line?
Otis Campbell: Yeah; but I didn't have my specs on and drunk or sober, I can't see much without my specs.
Andy Taylor: Otis, three hours ago when Deputy Fife arrested you were you drunk?
Otis Campbell: I don't know; I wasn't wearin' my glasses.
Best show to ever grace television!
