I object.
The moderators do make this site better than it would be without them. They actually protect the members from flamers, sniping, bad manners, spam, advertising, and a few other things.

The members pretty much double check each other for mistaken information, sort of like, "peer review". That means the mods don't have to know everything about every subject so they can understand every post and ensure its validity.

Each person seems to develop a voice. Some are very detail oriented, some are short and incisive, some are more casual, etc. They all contribute because the different voices are necessary to find the lingo that clicks with the person that needs to understand something about their circuit. Here lies the need for tolerance between members. We can't all be the same style. It wouldn't even be appropriate if we were.
The quotes were because the mods don't have the ability to modify the site source and cannot, in that sense, make the site better. They can and do a good job of ensuring the forums are maintained and it's a pleasure to be here (in fact, I like AAC so much that this is my sole forum membership); in that sense they do make the site great.

thingmaker3 had moved to a rural area a few years back and had officially declared that he would retire. I think this had to do with the fact that he was so much in the middle of nowhere that he wouldn't have stable internet access. But I don't know more about it.

hgmjr visits once in a while for a couple of days, but mostly to say hi.

So, yes, I'd say AAC has three active moderators.

I'd like to say the moderators have the full support of the community, but I can't because when another member passes the word about a thread, and the moderator takes action, there is at least "one" person who probably doesn't support the moderator.

All in all, I have no problems with the moderators here.

I appreciate and applaud the mods. They all have different styles, and I don't always agree with every decision, but then, I don't always agree with every decision of my wife, my brother, or my best friend. Geo, Bertus, and Bill donate lots of time to the forum, and do so without taking on an imperial attitude.

Thanks, mods! :)
