Again, this forum is pretty good compared to many other forums. I totally agree with that. It's just no where near as good as it could be. If you don't care about that, if it doesn't interest you, ok, again for the 9th time just lock this thread and we're done. I have no problem with that at all. — Jake

Everyone on the mod team cares about the quality here. In fact, we care about it enough to dedicate a considerable amount of our time working for free to maintain and improve it in every way we can. Because this forum and the community it represents mean something to us. And it's that sentiment and those efforts, along with those of similar-minded posters here, that have resulted in the place rising from nowhere to number one in the philosophy forum world in a remarkably short period of time.

And you know what, we're proud of what we do, and the fact that we don't implement every idea that's suggested is a mark of common sense and good management and nothing to the contrary. The fact that you think you're so special that a rejection of your pet cause (not only by the mod team but by the community at large) reflects in any way negatively on us rather than on you is indicative of nothing more than your false view of your own importance. As is the idea that if there were an elite forum, you would have any access to it.

And that, @Jake, is the last word on the matter.
