Dear Riv,

I don't believe a word about what you say. Neither does many other people here, they are just too polite to say that.

: I try so effing hard to keep these boards clean, to remove things that are offensive and hurtful, and to treat everyone on the same level. I've removed probably as many of K.B.'s posts as I have of Cory's, and you can guess who I like more there.

: Interesting contradiction and I say this in sad tone and not in anger. You try to treat everyone on the same level? Then you admit to favoritism. I don't know what K.B. did but as a moderator you should not like one more than another. If you do, then you cannot try very hard to treat everyone on the same level. Maybe you should look into yourself and see what you are doing wrong?

: : Imagine you are some volunteer who cleans up the neighborhood everyday after work to keep it nice and livable. Why do you do it? Not because you're getting paid, but because it's something that makes you feel better, and it makes other people feel better even if they never know who is keeping things nice. It's something you care about, and you want to keep it beautiful. Practically every night when you come home from doing this, you find a hate note stuck in your front door saying horrible, untrue things about yourself and your volunteering. Everyday this happens. Everyday you clean up the neighborhood, and everyday it's a thankless job...a job that gets you hated and punished for doing good.

: It sounds like you want the same thing I wanted which is empathy. I empathize with you. I know how you feel. I tried to help people and got ignored when the chips were down and got treated nasty by you.

: _Riv

: : That's what it feels like. I don't know...it is my decision to moderate, and my decision to spend my time doing this. But it's disheartening sometimes. A lot of the time. Most of the time.

: : I like these boards a lot. I really do. I love the people here...the kind people, the ones that I can relate to and learn from. Unfortunately, those types of people are quickly fading away, and are being replaced by nameless hate-note writers.

: Look to the uncaring ones and 'thank' them for that.
