    so both of the moderators of this forum are people that in some way 'are attacted to the same sex'
    I was wondering how important do you think that is, do you think in a gay forum the moderators should be gay or bi, would you feel uncomfortable with a gay friendly straight modertor?

    neither of us are thinking of leaving BTW, i'm just curious!

    I would be fine with anyone as long as the person was gay friendly :)

    Doesn't matter. Just as long as they're good moderators (which you guys are. :) )

    All moderators deserve a sign of appreciation on this forum..:)
    it's not easy sometimes to be a mod..I'm one myself..
    on our bikeforum issues come up as well..mostly political..
    or racist even..our webmaster did never ban anyone..
    I agree that Erzebet and Samhain are good moderators on gay
    so they will do their best to run it..and they DO...
    whether they are gay or bi..does not matter at all..
    this is a forum of 58535 members..so..sometimes..not easy..

    would one have to be a junkie to moderate the opiates forums ? i dont know .....being able to read n write i think helps ......if one was murdered by someone of the same gender , race or afinity .....or someone polarly oposite .....would they be more or less dead ?

    I think that with any job, big or small, sexuality should never be an issue. Same goes with Mods. I think that having a mod who has first hand experience with the subject of the forum would be beneficial, but not necessary.

    yea, it helps that the mods are gay, but not necessary. I like it this way, though. I have a harder time talking to str8 ppl just because its hard for them to put themselves in my shoes, but other gays can relate to me on a much different level.

    I think that it is very important to have people who are gay to be running the forum. I just think that's the way it should be.

    I think the mods should be gay, or no mods at all.

    from what I heard there was a lot more homophobia on here when it was modless, so surley having a moderator of any sexual orientation is better than no mods?

    i don't think they have to be out and out gay but i think for them to be honest, if they are a man, they should suck the occasional penis and likewise if they are a woman

    I like to think that I can have a clearer understanding of the emotional issues that gays have because I too am gay , so , it helps , in my eyes , to have a gay , or at least , Bi mod , on the Gay forums

    yes, that's what I was wanting to say earlier. A straight guy isn't going to fully understand me when I'm talking about loving another guy, but another gay, or bi mod would at least have some experience, or otherwise good insight on my situation. The mods already rock! :rainbow:
