[QUOTE="Deep Purple, post: 344865, member: 17"] QUOTE(TopFrog @ Jun 17 2009, 06:31 AM) [snapback]343327[/snapback] Of course, Deep is a moderator so he is not likely to remove his own negative remarks about her. I'm not likely to remove my positive comments about her either, and I made quite a few. Now that the massive deletions in this thread have been reversed, I suppose the lesson is that moderators need to learn to moderate according to the board posting rules and not their own personal views. This is not a selective propaganda site like AggieFans.com or Baylor fans.com. In keeping with the spirit of TCU itself, this board from its origin was intended to be more open, independent, and free-wheeling. We used to have a moderator who deleted according to his personal views, even to the point of deleting other moderators -- and even adminstrators. His handle was Horned Frog Pride. Because of his routine abuse of moderator privileges, he didn't last long. Incidentally, he was also a founding partner of Kf.c. So it appears nobody is above the rules here.
