Look, sure he's just some tool, but that doesn't mean he's a jack***
Does the filter let me say jack***?
My apologies. I'm sure Erik and company would like it more if I spammed their site with crap like this:

In the bunny's unsolicited opinion, @martin_stahl is one of the really good mods here...
My sentiments exactly.
me too
wow, lotsa love for martin.
anyone remember what he posted? it was "Looks like you were temporarily muted"
he may be great, but that response was worthless. especially since the gist of this topic is that, hopefully, erik and staff (and, i guess, mods, too) see the failures we see and move to fix them.
really, that type of response reminds me of a mod or staff locking a topic with a simple "locking this". gee, thanks for the explanation.
a case in point about moving to fix the wrongs was batgirl (betty) unmuting spud soon after she saw it. while that action deserves praise, it does not get to the root of the issue, which is that it shouldn't have happened in the first place.
