Added Time 14 0 Posted September 4, 2009 Just to let everyone know.I used to help out with moderating this forum and it did become rather tedious reading a lot of the inane posts that end up on here.Also a lot of the modding went on in the web teams own (unpaid) time. How else do you think that posts went up at unsociable hours such as weekends and evenings.and finally Archant have been getting rid of staff and those that are left really do not have the time to moderate the posts.I know that the situation is not ideal - but that is my two pennies worth.
