That's the solution: steal it instead.

Is that how you get all your media?

Kirk

You consider a "slur" the fact that I suggested that stealing content is bad? Geez...

Kirk

Please can we not let important threads turn into sidetracked flamewars. People who haven't been following rgg won't understand the context or full story on this, and regurgitating personal attacks is unlikely to be productive.

There was a clear suggestion that I "stole" to get all my media. That was the slur.

For a moderator one needs someone who will act to calm things down - rather than fan the flames !

It is for this very reason that I would rule myself out also

At the present time, I would turn down this offer. I might reconsider if you ask me again half a year later.

I certainly think for each moderator option, there should be the ability to vote positively or negatively (or not at all) for each candidate. Negative votes can offer more insights than positive ones for potential moderators in my experience.

Yes, I have a negative vote or two that I didn't want to express in public.

Qualifications for mediators should be considered too. These are biggies...

Yes, let's not go there. Nevertheless, I think Kirk has a right to respond publicly to richardamullens public objection to him as a moderator for whatever reasons. Let's also remember that disputes are never unilateral.
