Re: "The Church of ET"? (none / 1)

While I like snark as much as the next guy, I dislike having to second-guess moderators and other law-enforcement officials. If you're making requests in your capacity as moderator, I will make the changes even if I disagree with your reasoning. If you are making suggestions as a member of the community, I will make the changes if I believe them to be justified.

Re: "The Church of ET"? (none / 0)

Believe me, if I was making a moderation request I'd make it very, very clear that that was the case.

I don't generally get all that attached to titles, so changing one doesn't seem like a big deal to me.

Re: "The Church of ET"? (none / 0)

Thanks for the clarification.

I'm not particularly attached to the title as such. But I am attached to the principle of not airbrushing my diaries when I put my foot in my mouth.
