I have to say, the mods here do an amazing job! Its been hard lately watching the Canreef community appear "down" on things at the forum, including the mods and the job they are doing. I think we should all be sentenced to spending a day on the "other" large Canadian reefing forum so that we know how good we got it!

Brad, Tony, Christy do a great job with this site & for volunteers to take time out of there lives to be play ground supervisors they need to be commended & thanked.

So from me to all of you, Thank you.

Modding is a sometimes stressful and tiring duty, and so my hats off to the mods who help keep our Canreef running smoothly.

I've been in their shoes and it can be stressful and unforgiving and it is a volunteer position but we also have to remember this board has been around for over a dozen years and to have the same people in it modding and admining the board for that many years takes dedication and dare I say a certain amount of love to do what they have done.

This is one of the premiere boards on the net for info and I didn't come here to buy and sell I came to learn and that is what I have done. I. If you wanna bitch moan and whine by all means please join RC, Nano-reef, AA. You will be in nirvana then people go there to name call, whine and moan because they know mods and admins will not do much there.

The admins and mods have my full support on Canreef I will stand behind them all the way

It is nice to see long term moderators.

The mannerism and tone of this forum is a direct result of the great patience and discipline of these moderators.
Moderating, as with any position of authority, requires a thick skin and here they can be dealing with people from all walks of life.

Criticism can be a good thing too, if it leads to positive and innovative changes, so sometimes shortcomings need to be brought to the forefront.

I'll throw in my Kudo's to the mod's here as well. I can see why there isn't always consensus between members, vendors, mods and admin. We're all different and have our own needs and wants. And sometimes people get frustrated when it's perceived that those aren't being met.
But through all that I think the thoughts expressed have been fair and civilized and have struck a balance between differences.
Thanks to those on the forefront, and those in the background, for providing us this forum to share our passion (addiction) and to learn from one another.
