Default Should traders be able to be mods?

OK, so I'm not sure where I stand on this, probably because I've never seen it first hand, but I do believe that something that is attracting this much attention should get a vote.

So go ahead

you see the problem is people who dont like traders or a certain one will vote jusy to be vindictive,but remember your voting for the site not the person,so vote away chaps as it makes not a blind bit of difference

perhaps mods shouldnt take their powers to extremes.

It was onlytoday I was saying that I hope this site doesnt go under, but now I couldnt care less because i've seen the actions some mods take

I have voted not on my current experience, but what I have believed for a long time. I hope others do the same

i think YES they SHOULD be allowed to be moderators in EVERY room APART from the for sale room

just like should teachers be allowed to take drugs and not get sacked and should fat ugly bouncers who lie about there name be taken seriously

oh and should police be delt with harder when they break the law

pete is a VERY fair mod though i do question hes modding inn the forsale rooms but i fear i might be picking holes as its easy to do this,,,, just like when you meet a foreign person you treat them with less respect than a fellow person of your race untill you get to know them

I think this is a fair comment and I would back it. No one should mod in a room which is close to their trade

I voted no. (traders shouldnt be mods)

If for no other reason than it gives everyone defined boundaries
so there is no suggestion of abuse/conflict of interest etc...

OR

At least keep them out of the for sale rooms as moderators .....

Unfortunatly I have voted No, but I think that traders should be able to Mod G/D etc etc, just not rooms where trading on any level takes place.

no mate,,,, its TRUE FACT, we all judge peope before we actually get to know them and the BEST way to point it out is when you explain it like that

im far from racist mate, i always give the africans in the toilets money when i go clubbing

oh and my main group of mates im the only english person in the group,, we even had proper muslims in our click who,,,,,, carry bags when they go gym and aint blown us up yet ,,,, though at first we made them carry clear bags as ,,,, well you never know

and ive just fell out with one of my closest mates for calling another on of my mates a nigger when he was "angry" as i HATE racism,,,, even though EVERYONE has some sort of racism in them,,,,, even me and im ashamed to admit i can think like that

No, they sell parts of cars for a living. They don't dictate what I have to say on this forum.

I didn't say you were racist bloke!

Far from it, was an inspired bit of journalism! As most of that last post was!

No room for racism in this country, its religionism that will be next!

And that will be far worse!!

Why is there so much pointless politics on this forum now?
Have people forgotten how to post about interesting things, or are they just interested in moaning and having a dig at how the place is run these days?

Change the fucking record PLEASE people!
