How is Richard1 an Admin?

**Richard1** · December 11th, 2004, 10:42 AM

Good Morning,
I will try and communicate to you more than the last Managing Editor. As I said before, I am the Managing Editor. I have control over the daily operations of WinDrivers and a few other sites, although I have people who I answer to, as in many corporations.

I had originally planned on making the announcement on Monday but Freddy was out of hand and no one was doing anything about it. Next thing you know he's posting the personal e-mail I sent him, which I found personally offensive, under different usernames and using profanity as well. Hence my early arrival. I will still post an announcement some time early next week to inform everyone.

Hopefully we can all work together and build this into a community where people , help each other, laugh and learn a few things. Thanks

Just because freddy chose to ignore the advice he was given, does not mean that no one tried to do something about it.

Whoa !?! .. hang on a minute, you are the 'ubber mod' & thus its your decision on how/when stuff gets done ?

So its time for me to be Nat King Cole then methinks ..

There may be trouble ahead
But while there's music and moonlight and love and romance
Let's face the music and dance
Before the fiddlers have fled
Before they ask us to pay the bill and while we still have the chance
Let's face the music and dance
Soon we'll be without the moon, humming a different tune and then
There may be teardrops to shed
So while there's moonlight and music and love and romance
Let's face the music and dance

Funny, I recall using that same argument with a high school teacher we both had...

You are aware that Richard1 also has supermod status?

obviously since he banned freddy.

what is also obvious is there appears to be a difference of opinion even among supermods as to how things should be handled and what is appropriate here both from members and mods alike.......this is going to be interesting!

ASTOUNDINGLY ! & bloody rude too if you ask me - I'm getting the impression that this is all news to you, or certainly to the extent of deciding to 'take control' ..?

Sounds like the big brother Syndrome.

If you don't mind my asking: what has happened to the "last managing editor"?

And yes, freddy was way over the top, and had been banned recently and warned and advised repeatedly by many here, not just mods. What he did was on his shoulders, not anyone elses. In fact, I did report the thread in Comments and Suggestions before your arrival. You showed up then, so what would any other mod need to do about it with you on the scene, sort of speak? Especially considering that you were the "target" of freddy. You had no choice but to do what you did. Sad way for an introduction, too. But, not very surprising.

No Cleetus, he means a community of that type that fits internet.com's guidelines. ie, say goodbye to us lounge lizard types, we'll be run out of here in no time. I've seen them do it to other sites I've been on, and the same thing will happen here. I don't know what's up with Scott, but I don't see his name or e-mail address on any of the pages anymore, so I'm guessing he's out. And with him out, internet.com's corporate buzzards have descended to pick the flesh off the carcass.
