Moderators are not on duty 24/7. They are volunteers. As for removing posts, it occured to me that said posts had nothing to do with the thread title. Probably not the cleverest of things to post either if you think about it. Mea Culpa.
This thread has been more or less
civilized. If anyone feels like using the scab word again, be warned. You'll be permanently banned.
Gonna sit in the background and wield the stick if necessary.
