True, but its still the parents making the decisions.

If a child mouths of to mom, mom discusses the penalty with dad.

If a forum member mouths off to a mod the mod discusses the penalty with another mod.


BF members should fell fortunate, on another IB forum I'm a member of there's a zero tolerance policy for disrespecting mods. In fact, there's a zero tolerance policy for opening a mod related thread.

On that forum all mod related questions go directly to a mod....they are prohibited on 'the floor'. On that forum this thread would have been locked before it started.
