After careful thought I resign from being a moderator. Thanks for the votes, but I feel its not for me.

I just wonder why topics keep getting closed so quickly. Moderators should be there to moderate the board. It's like having a conversation for some-one to say "stop no more speaking". Yes if the topic is getting out of hand or abusive, but they seem to be getting ended for no reason. I think it will drive away people from the boards IMHO.

Why is it when somebody(a new member normally) posts a very intelligent and up front question there is a small army (and usually the same usual suspects) who are intent in belittleing and generally taking the living p%$s out of the members o.p.There is a fine line between banter and generally being obstructive.As i said last week we are a professional trade and from what i have seen (i.m.o) some of us are no better than football holligans,and i have got to say i for one am fed up with it I have got to say there is an element on this board that have got to do a serious amount of growing up fast,and you should be ashamed of yourselves and you know who you are I am sorry m…

For those of you who are the boss/manager of your companies i would like to ask, if you were sending an engineer out to a job that was on an isolated site with no permanant members of staff and the potential risk of chlorine gas and phosphuric acid would you allow for two men on that site. are there any legal requirement that my employer should be adhering to? For your information staff employed by the owner of the site are required to work in pairs but as a subcontractor my employer do not seem to take any notice of this and my wife is concerned about my safety

Help. I am in a dilemma. I will shortly have to decide whether I want to be a trade area moderator or public area mod... and I really cannot decide. I would therefore welcome your view. How do you see me... Where do you think I am more suited or would do the better job.... ... Whatever you thoughts, I would welcome a PM from you. ... but please by PM, not posts.
