Ah; you're keeping up with ICHC on a daily basis we see?  I saw that and was saving it up for an appropriate occasion.  (but, no harm!)

I'm almost flattered at being modded! I feel I've joined the ranks of the rebellious. Actually, all I did was post a link to the European Youth Orchestra concert in Liverpool on Sunday.

Astonishing, isn't it - posts libelling singers or attacking other posters are allowed to hang around on TOP for days, while the moment anyone mentions a live concert, the Mods reach for the blue pencil.  Nation shall speak unto nation ....

MARY?? MODDED??!! Shocked Shocked Is there no end to the idiocy over there? I've just had a look. Is it really a dopey newbie Mod or someone who appears to have a problem with Youth Orchestras? Still, wear your modding with pride, Mary. There's a few of us here who were cast into the Beeb dungeon! Grin Grin

That's what I've been planning to do since about 12.30. There was one brief lull in the stormy rain, when I should have made a dash for it, but I was in the middle of something else, and now it's gone all cold and blustery again.

But I'm hungry, and can't last much longer. I think it's time to be brave.

Then I need to look for my bow-tie. I've done a lot of tidying this week but still haven't tackled the cupboard where I think it is.

Idiotic, yes.  But also logical from the point of view of the outsourced jobsworth ...

It's quite simple.  Somewhere there is a rule that says "no mentions of live concerts on the boards".  No judgement needed or required - so the Mod can wield the stick, claim s/he is doing the job, and get paid.

But a post slagging off another member, say, is a different matter.  It involves judgement and discretion.  Therefore it is more difficult, and there is always a rationale for doing nothing, while being able to claim that, for example, one is promoting vigorous debate and defending free speech.  Hence, even when doing nothing, and avoiding a decision, the Mod can claim that s/he is doing the job, and get paid.

Of course, the older-fashioned kind of Mod who knows and cares and makes an effort is no longer viable in the output-driven resource-accounted, key-performance-indicated world ...
