How could I resist?

There's one moderator at Tom's Hardware....
He steals my posts, puts his name on my posts, collects all my "likes" for himself.
He buries my name and my original posts in the "archives"...

Tom's Hardware has a "ranking system," whoever posts the most popular solutions for computer problems rises in rank...
all the way up to "admiral" of Tom's Hardware.

So...I posted several solutions, and rose up to become "admiral"
and this moderator took all the credit for my posts, put his name on my posts...and made himself "admiral." Blocked me from becoming "admiral."
No kidding this really happened.
The guy plagiarized my posts ---put himself right into the top position.

And when I complained about this, I was told I would be thrown out of "Tom's Hardware," for complaining.
True story.

And look at you now! You've gone from being a hi-jacked Admiral to a full fledged Ambasador! Take that Tom and your Hardware!!!

Those are the rules everywhere.
Fallible humans enforce the rules.
Sometimes things go sideways.
Generally, eventually what we see is moderators wind up enforcing those rules against posts that they either don't like or personally disagree with, while others seem to get a pass if the statement is something they like or agree with. Goes for both issues and both sides. At almost all forums.

Here at TTR, you won't find a whole lot of the bickering and poor attitudes and stuff that are easily found at the others.

We have good mods here BUT we also have good members, and that makes a difference.

The other thing is mods are involved as you would expect but not in bad way.
I do think most of the members have similar behaviors musically.
There is alot of sharing musically and help from everyone.
I have had so many people here genuinely help me out.

My "roadies" will give you a pass on that one.

Well, we got a guitar and beer thread. Might as well start a guitar and pets thread. :dood:
 
Cactus Blossom is thriving !! Still seams from time to time she is looking for her kittens that were lost in the fire. A cry from within that you cant manufacture without deep pain. but she is growing & stays very close to me but scatters soon as someone comes in the door. Man look at the 2nd pic, the first time i saw her at the shelter. little did i know she came from the house fire i saw on the news a week earlier.
