Why are we not allowed to search posts by moderators?

*edit*
Apparently it's not moderators, just administrators...and only a few of them at that.

The conspiracy thickens...

Dude, I get a database error every time I do anything administrative on the boards.
In case you haven't noticed the servers have sucked for years.

Much better. Now, let's go back to our secret meeting place and go back to discussing our plans for world domination.

Oh, wait... crap.

If BF wants to run the world, that's fine my me. The real guys in charge sure as hell aren't doing a good job.

That's really not fair timmy, comparing moderators to riot police. A much more realistic thing would be to compare them to the Gestapo.

...if only they were more "Schultz-like", they'd be a lot more likeable.

Breaking up fights, and quelling personal attacks, is an unfortunate, but necessary, function of mod's here. However, thought-policing the occasional "f'king" - ALREADY filter masked vernacular, is, IMO, bordering on anal retentiveness.

*oh yeah - it's "the rules": "I don't make them, or necessarily agree with them, I just enforce them." Oh puhleeze, gimmee a f'kin break! Leave your tin-star deputy badge on the dresser, and look the other way. "I see nothing; I know nothing."*
