Where are the moderators lately?

[Ross L. Lamoreaux]

I know that Mrs. Lawson is taking care of some issues and is on the road alot lately, but are there any other moderators looking over anything on this site? There are some serious wacked out posts, with personal insults, professional insults, and other just plain insults, seemingly without any moderation, since they continue to be a problem over the last several weeks. Just curious....

Ross,
I think the economy has finally effected the forum here. No, I agree wholeheartedly. It is getting a wee bit nasty. And with some of the lastest posts, both members of this forum and the AC should be embarrassed.

No, I'm here. However, I only have control (for lack of a better term) over the Medical & Relief Societies conference. Like yourself, I can only notify the moderators responsible for other conferences. Have you, or anyone else for that matter, hit the alert button?

[Spinster]

Amazingly enough --nobody has hit the alert button, as I do get the notices from such.

No, yall fellers are determining the quality of your playground by tolerating such conversation around your dinner table.

Folks get tired. Even ones who are Daddy sitting with an iPhone for entertainment.

I only have control over the Musicians Forum. I am not sure where Tom has been as he has control over most of the board. I too have received no alerts by email as to anyone's conduct or nasty posts.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe that the upper section of the board discussing the events and recruiting really is not moderated as such???

Just referring from a previous past experience.

You are right Micah, that section is moderated by the Provost only. I think that is going to change but as of right now it's still only the Provost's call.

I have repeatedly hit the alert notice. 5 times in the last week with no reply on any of them. In the past I've received some communication within a day but nothing on these. It just seems that regardless of alerts, things are getting well out of hand on several threads.

Hitting the alert notice should send the alert to all Moderators. I feel we may have a software problem as the alerts are not going through. Thanks Ross for the information. I will inform the Provost and see what we can do to help this situation.

Interesting??? The last "alert" I received was on August 25th (still have the notification). No, not about this thread, another.

Maybe you're right 5strings, its possibly a software issue.
