Moderation of TLF - Can I Just Say

Thank you.

I'm not sure I've said it often enough or if I've said it at all.

And I need to get this next part off my chest please.

"Our" moderators are volunteers. They don't get paid. They are also human too. They are capable of everything that I/we am/are. I sense, and stand to be corrected, that some Fools default to a negative view of TLF moderation and the moderators who so kindly, and for nothing, keep order. This is their choice. It's not mine though.

I recall at least two occassions when I have taken, what I will refer to as an aggressive position with some of our moderators. I'm sorry. This was not acceptable. Three months ago I was diagnosed with ADHD. I now know the underlying source of my inability to control my aggression. That doesn't prevent me from apologising though. I hope those looking on understand and accept the essence of my words.

Thank you for everything you do to maintian order on TLF. It's greatly appreciated :)

Can we please add a clapping emoji as I feel it would come in very helpful ;)

It's a tough job, but without them this site will collapse into chaos.
Try to imagine anyone saying what you like, no reprimand?
It will decent into name calling and irrelevance.

We may not agree with decisions but it's always for the right reasons and for the benefit of civil discussion. Helpful advice and a supportive community.

We welcome feedback or disagreement with decisions, no one is an island, and we work together for an agreed direction.
