Given BD's and Miles' arguments, I will adopt kumquats, and drop the TOWEL, so to speak. ;) However, given that a number of us have been victimized by moderator meltdowns/flames, Crazy Towel Mod will remain in the lexicon. :ymdevil:

Sorry Miles, I respectfully disagree with your statement about the nature of that other board yonder. On what basis do you believe that the pendulum might swing another direction?

If I'm a genius, then WHY did I come up with TOWEL? ;)

Of course, given the pirate motif of at least one CrazieTalk'er (and the pirate smilie), why not go with:

I actually don't believe that it's going to swing back, but I recognize that nothing is permanent in life so perhaps I'm holding out hope. Maybe J&B will realize that the blind support of their moderators, and lack of transparency isn't good for the board. Or maybe they've created their own utopia and they're glad that the "riff raff" left. Maybe monkies will fly out of Jumbo's ass? Who knows? Regardless, I still didn't leave enthusiastically; that's it.

Trouble is, it's been like that for a long while.

I hear that. Moreover, there seem to be a bunch of EK newbies (<100 or so posts) who have lots to say (albeit of little substance) and just don't really know what the fuck's going on. Fuck that.

Also, I just posted "fuck" twice. Well, make that three times.
Y'all really need to make up your minds. You've got two completely contradictory narratives here

(1) The moderation at DBR is too laissez-faire, because the signal-to-noise ratio is heavily in favor of noise.
(2) The moderators are a bunch of controlling, heartless monsters who freebase Bangladeshi children's bones in their free time.
