Why would a board have activists as moderators

...just try calling someone a stroke and see what happens.

Why would a board have activists as moderators?

A moderator is also a member Chris, and in most cases an "active" moderator in a thread does not moderate others within the thread...

You missed all the excitement with Popeye didn't you...

Sorry... I can't moderate in this thread since I've chosen to be active.

Ok there may be a technical limitation that says you cant moderate a thread that your active in, however there is still the original point. One would *think* that moderators would be level headed, moderate people... not extreme activists.

You may not be able to moderate this thread, but your title still goes forth and is embarrasing.

I don't know what planet you're orbiting there bubba, but noway was Pug's post anything to be embarrested about. He was actually very tactful, as he always is.

Get over it

Relax. If you read any of Pug's posts, you'll realize that he is 99% of the time making comments in jest, not insulting someone. If someone makes a claim, expect they will be called out on it, though.

Stating that you don't thind someone is qualified to answer a question makes you an extreme activist? Cut me a break Chris.

UP is a very vocal proponent to diving without a computer, so it would seem is more qualified to answer the question than someone else. He is also a moderator. What else am I missing? There must be something else if you're getting your panties all in a wad, right?!

Not to mention the fact that he used a smilie!

For example, "Why would I take drysuit advice from someone named Soggy? " See, no harm, no foul!

Because I know all about the woes of being in a wet drysuit
