I'm not going to lie I have in the past seen some inconsistent enforcing of TOS that makes me question the legitimacy of the system at times...I've seen some members get away with things that others do not, I've seen some posts disappear completely because they break the TOS...and others remain for some time until they are addressed...ATS member by nature are inclined to see this as censorship first...its a fair possibility that moderating cannot be 100% equal...but its a less apparent possibility to those who question authority...

I will always say what I have to say, and I will never suck up to a mod just because they are a mod, or any member for that matter, just because they are part of the "popular" crowd.
Mods, as members, need to realize that not everyone will agree with them concerning certain issues, and that is all part of being on a forum like this.

There is a reason you haven't noticed me until recently! I wasn't here!
I was a very active member from '08 to '10 (that's when I agreed to become a mod) shortly after that, however some health problems put me in a financial hole. Just keeping Ramen noodles in the pantry and the electricity turned on ( most of the time ) was just about impossible. In a situation like that one tightens ones belt. Part of that tightening was to go without Internet for about 18 months.
During that time I would log on occasionally from my sisters house, or from the library - but not often.
About two months ago things changed and I, again, had full time 'net access.
So I wasn't here to be noticed~

"Even"? See you proved my point. I'm ATS' Rodney Dangerfield.
I will say though that there are times that a staffer wants to say something that will actually be inside the T&C but might be too provocative. One has to ask oneself, "Is it worth it?" This is a conspiracy site and many(most?) have it in for "the man". Here that's us. Why antagonize? I call it "the handcuffs".
