Tao

[vbactivist]

I have a questiom/comment about tao. It seems that even now with the moderation, there are things that come through that belong in other forums. Or the moderation is inconsistent. And honestly, that is kind of hurtful. When someone decides 'my' post is ot, yet a similar post gets through. For instance, I was just looking for ideas from the genearl population about a clever name for an art school. I was told it belongs in Working well. Yet, when someone polls the general poplulation about frosting vs. icing, it gets apporved, rather than being told to put it in Nutrition and good eating. Of course, I know that the mods are only human. So I try not to take it personally. But since it seems so subjective, would you ever consider going back to unmoderated (and by that i mean starting thread is not moderated, not the entire forum) for TAO?

Thanks for your consideration

The starting thread is unmoderated. We took it off. We do still move things that are OT though.


The "frosting" thing is a language question of which there are many in TAO, it isn't about "frosting or icing" it is about word use. If it was about a recipe for icing or how to frost a cake then that would be placed in N&GE.

Oh, I get that. My thread was really that I was looking for a clever play on words , Like "Home is wehre the art is" or something. Os not really abotu working, either. But when I asked about the thread (and this was a long time ago) I was told that it belonged in WAHM Well, I didn't even want to bother trying to recreate it, and actually by that time, I had figured out a name.

Hooray for the unmoderated TAO - I missed that!

Thanks for your help, Abimommy
