Well,if you had
read the thread and my responses, you would know I'm not trying to convince anyone. Just stating the truth of what happened. I just spent about an hour loking through the forums and still have yet to find ONE instance of anyone here calling Prudence a name. If you know something I don't...tell me. I'm confused!
I think no less of you for trying to take up for a person you though was wronged. That takes guts. My point is, no one disrespected her until she disrespected them first. Again...it's easy to listen to HER side of the story that everyone disrespected HER, but I never saw it. Was it in IM's? Was it on the Forum? Where?

Uhm, I think you have confused the term Moderator. From Websters online;
moderator
Main Entry: mod·er·a·tor
Pronunciation: \ˈmä-də-ˌrā-tər\
Function: noun
Date: circa 1560
1: one who arbitrates : mediator
2: one who presides over an assembly, meeting, or discussion: as a: the presiding officer of a Presbyterian governing body b: the nonpartisan presiding officer of a town meeting c: the chairman of a discussion group
3: a substance (as graphite) used for slowing neutrons in a nuclear reactor
— mod·er·a·tor·ship \-ˌship\ noun
A moderator/Mediator keeps the peace. Hard to do when you have a persecution complex and think everyone is against you.

After reading your wonderful comments, Pru was moved to tears. You guys should be happy with yourselves. Making someone who tried their best cry. Gee, that wasn't childish of you guys at all, was it?

Uh, I remember when guys would try to tell her maybe she acted unfairly, she threatened to ban people.How can you help someone who takes the job "moderator" to mean infallable Judge, Jury and executioner? She certainly never let some people have their say. You speak of our arrogance? What of hers? Assuming we are all against her. Assuming she had to ban people to make her point. She tried hard? Well, many of us tried hard to look past her dictatorial style of moderatorship and went around like we were walking on landmines.
You speak of us...where were you? Funny you seem to not read any of the posts where she bears her faults and overbearing demeanor and attack us as if we should be ashamed. I am not! Funny she was not crying when she banned Shane for telling her she got off topic on the religion thread and he didn't appreciate her posting pics and her views on religion.
Guess it's easy to sit back an hide and not make the tough decisions then run to the aid of a woman when you have not been involved in the situation.
