I don't want my posts to be deleted as much as anyone else.
I have disputed the deletion of my posts in the past. My point is that I know I can't get everything I want and that is a part of life. I may be bothered for a short time but I move on, Niamh deleted one of my posts recently to prevent it from being misinterpreted and I didn't like that but I have not made a thread to dispute her place as a moderator, I have not encouraged other people who were moderated by her to call her out with me and I most certainly have not rendered everyone outside of C&G, where the deletion occurred, invalid of having an opinion on the deletion of posts, because my own posts and the posts of people "on my side" are more important.
I also think that ganging up on one moderator and victimizing him about this because he participates in the threads he moderates is really uncalled for.

That emboldened sentence is just not what is happening in my case Jessica.
And I totally disagree about any 'victimising' - in fact Dezzy's name has barely been mentioned in this thread.
Any thread on any topic will draw to it members who have an opinion on that topic.
I am referring to genuine opinion NOT opportunistic 'veiled' Trolling and Baiting from personal 'axe-grinding' motives.
This subject is no different, and if several members independently feel that they have had a genuine unfair experience at the hands of a 'Mod', and that 'Mod' turns out to be the same person, then that is not 'ganging up' and it is not victimising anyone.
Dialogue is the only way to resolve any problems such as this, and irrational hostile or untrue comments through misplaced loyalty, by people who were not, and are not, 'principally' involved in the individual issues, is tantamount to stifling that dialogue and, if unrestrained, is what actually leads to 'victimisation - of the ones who are claiming a grievance.
A lot has been written and intimated at, that this thread is 'Much Ado About Nothing' but that is wholly dismissive and unfair to the members who feel strongly enough about their claims, that they enter what is after all 'The Lion's Den' to air those claims.
One thoroughly decent and active long-serving member has quit the forum because of his depth of feelings about his own particular issue - Does that lend weight to any argument that this entire matter is spurious?
No one is painting anyone out to be any kind of habitual monster - that is just not the case - but I have a genuine grievance, and I am attempting to resolve it in a mature and amicable manner.
