I wouldn’t want to see moderators. Too much temptation for the little kings in their little kingdom syndrome.
The last place I was on had terrible moderators. Too inconsistent. You can’t have mods that post as well. That’s a terrible idea.
Self policing should work. If something gets out of hand then people contact you and you handle it.
No one forces anyone to participate in a thread. If you can’t control your emotions then don’t participate.
Veiled threats should never be tolerated. The Water Hazard was a great idea. No one forces you to post there. If you can’t debate civilly then don’t ask to go in there.
Golfbuzz is much better than when I first joined FGI in the early 2000's. It was very cliquey back then and if you had a different opinion etc.. you were on the outside looking in.
Forums like this are dying. Hope to see this place survive.
