A genuine mistake was made by the new moderator, who I don't know personally, and he has apologised to the poster concerned.
We do not want to drive people away from the board and as such decisions have to be made at times fairly quickly on whether a topic is starting to go beyond the boundaries that we try and adhere too.
We do not want the board to degenerate the way the UR board did and thus some decisions may not be to the liking of some posters. Please feel free to contact us by PM if you think we have made a wrong decision and we will further discuss it in a sensible manner without everyone having to dig through possible personal differences.
To answer this question which was dragged up previously and is posed again by a poster, the answer is no we don't, it is not even possible to read our own PM's without logging in as ourselves. The only thing we can do or see different to any of the rest of you is, we can delete threads, edit them, move them and lock them, what we see is exactly the same as any other poster.To a degree this brings into question other issues such as whether pm's between posters are also read by the mods.
