The Cellar is what it is ... a community. Communities have their ups and downs, arguments, making-ups, conservatives, liberals, swingers, people being supportive, divisive, rarely just plain not caring, why would we show up here otherwise.

The administrator and moderators are not here to be the graphite to your uranium. There is a reason "insufferably annoying" is not further defined.

Go back about your business of posting. Nothing to see here, move along.
I strongly disagree. I think there IS something to see here. Several people have expressed their displeasure with a disruptive presence within the community, and ignoring the problem will only drive away the valued participants and leave those of you who chose not to fight in the company of the few problem posters.

You are right in that it is not a moderator's role to weed out the unpopular amongst us. However, it is the Admin's role to foster an environment that is conducive to maximum participation by all members. Or at least, should be in my opinion. When a few are persistently and apparently willfully ruining that environment, and are unwilling or unable to stop it.....they need to be stopped. Again, IMO.

If, after all of this, Ute decides that inaction is the best course, then so be it. And you'll have more of the same. Won't that be lovely.
