I get the message but your choice of words leaves a lot to be desired, very infantile.
Thankyou for your quick response as for contacting moderators in the past I have found this to rather slow and as the admin was on line I directed my question to him. I aplogise for not following the chain of comand I was unaware ythere was one.[/quote]
sigh! It was done, as I said, as a result of users ignoring our warnings not to break the rules - in this case, promoting another similar site here on APS. Ok, maybe the wording could have been more diplomatic, but it was done in a light-hearted/joking way, and also reflects the childishness of what some people have said about our site in the Topsites ratings. I'll discuss changing it it with the other moderators.
As for PMing Slatey - he is not a moderator, by his choice, and has advised everyone of this on several occasions. PMing a moderator
can result in a slow response at times, as we are
not online 24/7 as we have jobs and lives!
However, you can be assured that we will respond as soon as we get the message. I log on every night and every morning and sometimes at work (shhhh! Don't tell them!
) and I always respond asap. I'm sure the other mods do the same.
Any queries/criticisms/questions that are site-related should be PM'd first - and wait for an answer - before bringing it up in the forums.
Hope that clears the air...
