Hola AE,
All too often, particularly more recently, I am sure I am not alone in having walked into
the chat room to a full on row between a number of members with massive ,often very
offensive abuse being thrown between parties and disgusting language being used repeatedly
just to aggravate the argument. While we have a fair few moderators, 9 times out of 10 there are
no active moderators to deal with the issue and its all over by the time they do arrive by which time
someone feels very hurt and in a number of cases I have seen members stop entering the chatroom
anymore to avoid it happening again or even leaving AE completely, which is not fair on anybody.
Since I am in the chatroom most of the day every day, often when there are no moderators around
or at least none that can be bothered to respond to the situation, I am proposing becoming a
moderator myself, after many members have told me I should.
I would not penalize people for letting the odd word slip out or anything too minor however
would like to prevent these blazing arguments from happening, such as the one that happened
just half an hour ago.
Opinions welcomed.
Thanks,
Kai.
