So in order to continue to give users good service, it is appropriate to conform to the site "rule". And hell yes it is enforceable!
To add to the insult, DL's are normally spammers so they will get treated with swift justice and be refused "service" just like when you don't wear shoes at restaurants.

ISPs don't give a damn what the TOS are for any given site, but rather their TOSes that customers sign.

Yeah, but none of this is any grounds for removal from anyone's ISP, nor worthy of any complaint.

Mistresses are normally the ones that wear leather and whips, on other cases "the other women" .
In my case, I just hit buttons and my newly assigned title is Goddess.
That much, you will know.

I am not the type that is up for debates or handles whiny complaints well, etc. I just go -whiner! and click a button.

I was actually thinking more of the femine equivilent of a Dark Overlord (usually is refered to as a Dark Mistress), not the Kinky Sex stuff.

Bulletin Board Domination ? Maybe you'll get a few drooling "Ban me! Please!"....
Oh btw, it's been April 2nd here for 10 hours... is Tijuana time decisive for that ?
Good choice of title with "goddess". Glad to see some modesty in a moderator, compared to a certain retiring mod...

Ban me! Please??? -Is that like the liner "Beat me, whip me, make me write bad checks!?"
I just do my best.
Tijuana time usually is decisive for meetings, baby naps, feedings, but not much else...a quarter of the population lacks the punctuality gene.

a picture of MtG??

I think I already asked this, but what are your Bias?

What is your philosphy??

Tell us a bit of your history

(past mods we have known a bit because they posted here often previously)

are you willing to put up with the complaining

what is your feeling about utility threads

what is your feeling about funny threads or posts

what is your feeling about posters like CivNation, EvC, Wiglaf, Giancaro and others that entertain us

what is your position on flame wars

what is your position on comments about posters families

what is your position on the ME

what is your position on Euro-US debates

Have you ever played any of the games that this site is based arround?

Why do you have so many animals (I had 4 cats and it was enough (not to say that I did not love them))??

How many children do you have (if any (I think you have at least 1))

How old are you approximately (answer this by saying if you remember the 80s or the 70s or the 60s or etc)

what is your position on thread deletions (I don't think threads should be deleted without notification)

are you sure you want this job?

you religion if any (?)

your politics

of course feel free to be as evasive as you would like
