To put a 'final word' to this so to speak...
Movements to influence styles of posts from moderators usually stem from suggestions made by me. I've made it clear to my mods on several occasions that I want posts to be of quality and I want them to contain as much useful information as possible if not a well-explained opinion.
It's no doubt that Jadz speaks a great point here in her original post, and by this logic, plus the fact that she can enforce it, I would hope that you, my loyal readers, would take it as pseudo-policy. If you have an issue with policy, then you should know that you can come to any member of the staff and voice your opinion, including myself.
As I say about all things - there is a stupid way to do it, a lazy way to do it, and a smart way to do it. I encourage you all to think about that before you do anything here on the TFP, and try to opt for the smart way. That's what builds a great community. When new members read the threads, if they are not intellectually stimulated, then they will get bored. It's as simple as that. Every thread is an advertisement for people to post on the TFP and you all, whether you like it or not, write our ads. It's a big responsibility if you start a thread. Please be sure you can handle it.
