Philip:
"Opinions are like assholes. Everybody has one and most of them stink."
It's like waiting for a London bus in here. The forum stumbles along quietly without a hint of drama or excitement for months, then suddenly we get drama after drama.
Like David E. , I'm not sure my happily married life is anything anyone here is really interested in. I encounter some interesting stuff here in China, but can't really add much more to the dating advice than is already here, or to the legal stuff, because we have our own resident expert. This forum is more like an archive + occasional chat between guys who have shared similar journeys in the past.
Has the boat sailed? Maybe, but I still enjoy coming here, partly for nostalgic reasons, or on the off-chance I might be able to help someone, or they might be able to help me.
For what it's worth, Maxx, I'm going to thoroughly lick your boots and say that I think the moderators do a damn fine job. I can't quite work out what all the fuss was about - seems like a storm in a teacup.
Can't we just all  take the 5th, or observe the 24 hour rule, or count to ten, or something?
Or maybe this forum needs a bit of shaking up once in a while, to keep things interesting  :)
btw I hope that Mike stays around. I have always thought he made some excellent contributions to this forum, and have certainly never been offended by anything he said.

JohnB:
have to agree with Philip..” I think the moderators do a damn fine job.”
In my opinion, the mod's do an exemplary job keeping this site afloat. If anyone wants to visit
a graveyard, go visit the forum on ChnLove. Michael, "China Shark", has single handily kept that
thing from sinking into oblivion. A few here did not accept his somewhat abrasive ways, but lets
face it, we have a few vociferous members here. In the least, Mike does have China pedigree.
There is little substance on that site forum nowadays. Without the 'Shark', what gives it life?

It is unfortunate that a few of the older members have left. The few new have taken their place.
Maybe the “site subject”, i.e. China woman, has matured. That should be the question that faces
us; likewise, maybe it is time to for 'mod' change. Maxx has entered his resignation. He is burnt toast.
Maxx has performed in an efficient manner, but a few here have questioned his 'professional' conduct. 
I have a question, do the mod's receive any considerations for their services? Just out of curiosity I ask. 

If there is a lopping of mod's heads, then by all means it behooves us to recommend a few
members to the exalted..the elevated status of 'site mod'. Of course Martin has the final say,
but a little help would ease the burden.
If it comes to recos, I do nominate “Mike”, aka mpo. He has a history of substance abundance here.
So why not 'Mike the Mod'?

Martin:
Scottish Rob, in regards to the Shoutbox, when Irish man give up the site, it was moved to a new server. I don't know if the new server, or the updated version of SMF won't allow for the Shoutbox.that is why it is not here.

As far as considerations or compensation for the mods, they get 10% of the generated site income. To date, that income has been 0.

JohnB:
"they get 10% of the generated site income. To date, that income has been 0."

Martin, I figured as much. It is a thankless job.

Scottish_Robbie:
Ok Thanks Martin ::) ::) ::) :( :( :(
