What part of the world? Mods come from all over the world. Can you cite a specific instance where that has been the case (i.e. tolerating hate speech and trolling)? I believe we have shown plenty of tolerance to Skadists, Stormfronters, Stirpists, Egyptsearchers, RASties, PANFers etc. As a mod, I only ban people when they´re very rude or are obvious trolls. I don´t believe in censorship. Here´s the mission statement: dodona.proboards35.com/index.cgi?board=rules&action=display&thread=1069235252BTW, "hate speech" (whatever that is) is protected under rule 1, freedom of speech, as long as opinions are couched in a civil manner. I meant that members (not mods) from some regions say really inappropriate things, curse, troll, etc. and are still here, whereas the other types of trolls or haters seem to be short-lived. I don't personally support hateful or trolling comments from any part of the world. But that trend has lead me to believe there is a leniency for certain people. If I said the same thing directed towards other groups I have no doubt it would not be tolerated. But back to Mike, he is certainly not one of the instances I am referring to, so I don't want to pull this thread too far off-topic as I do support his nomination. Can´t you be more specific? Please give an actual example, an instance where that occured.

Nordicism exists. Afrocentrism exists. Medicism does not exist. It is such a non entity that there's not even a criteria to identify who should be part of this medicism. Countries on the Med sea? Countries populated by people belogning to the so called Med "subrace"? People with a small jaw and dark hair wherever they live? People who like pasta? People who very erroneously think there is some sense of bondage between the populations of the countries around the Mediterranean sea, as e.g. Albania France Croatia Spain Greece, Turkey and Egypt? eufrenio: I like very much your in doubt pro reo attitude. Too bad this golden rule of every criminal law system wasn't applied to charlie. Yes, Medicism is a strawman (this is an homage to Charlie Bass!) ;D And no, we were fair to Charlie, in his many incarnations. ;)He can still come back if he wants to, anytime.

khangard has an excellent point. I think also that members who are rude, trolling, or make posts with insults and profanity are not 'sent out the door' fast enough. Ideologies which can be an affront to members, but are posted in a civil manner, are not the issue I speak of. Such posts are OK.

You see, I cannot monitor each and every post in real time. And some calls are hard to make. Some members may have a different idea of what is insulting or profane. I may have a thicker skin than most. But I am not the only mod here. Hey! This is starting to sound like the Caine mutiny! ;D Order, order!
