A question for the mods

Just wondering, do the moderators shut down a post when it seems to have terminally*wandered from the initial topic. Is it better to shut down a post that degenerates into some pretty toxic aimless mudslinging. It may be a tricky call, but i would venture the current 'Firefly' post is a case in point.

RE: A question for the mods

Shrimp, I think the "RTF" is a perfect example of how well most people behave. I know it started off a little rough but there were a few shots fired and then everyone fell in line. One of the things I/we have tried not to do is overmoderate. And because of that, the membership has done a pretty good job of keeping everybody in line. I guess all I am saying is that most of the membership likes being here and the way it is. And if somebody gets out of line, the membership usually lets them know it...and fairly promptly at that. It is self-moderated to an extent. And yes, if it does get out of line, then I will delete it. I have deleted many threads. But usually people get their **** straight before I can do that.
