> So you think he was trying to explain why he found a joke about DR BOB'S DEPUTIES being (insert term here) by saying it was because he found many moderators on sites totally unrelated to DR BOB's as having had honesty/integrity bypass as an effort to make sure he hadn't offended, say, DR BOB's DEPUTIES, by finding a joke that found DR BOB's DEPUTIES to engage in sexual acts with DR BOB.
***He obviously feels that some moderators have a tendency to try too hard at their job, or try to throw their weight around,(which I have seen on other sites - forgive me if i broke any rules by saying).
>> And that explaining that he has found moderators ELSEWHERE to be lacking in integrity and honesty, that's why he found the joke about DR BOB's DEPUTIES to be so funny?
>
> And that his purpose was to make sure that no one was offended by his finding that funny, he made sure to mention about the honesty and integrity.****He made sure to mention that the reason he found the deputy joke funny was because of the way he found SOME moderators can be. Are you saying that all moderators are great people? I don't believe that you know every single moderator on the face of the earth, do you? How can you vouch for their character?

>What I am saying is that there was NOTHING in capricorn's wording that said or even implied that DR BOB's DEPUTIES were blah blah blah..
For instance...someone might find a joke about...say, police oficers funny, but that doesn't mean he hates all police officers. Some people just hate the IDEA of authority figures for various reasons....they may or may not hate any particular police officers...
Capricorn has a right to his/her sense of humor. The fact that capricorn did not tell the joke is relevant. And, the fact that capricorn tried to explain himself/herself is relevant too. The fact that the wording wasn't the best is unfortuante, but I don't think it's grounds for a block.
Sorry.
