I would like a Twitter “green check mark” for high quality posters like rbtrackfan, matthatter, div1crosscountry. They deserve recognition for excellence.
I have just left an email yesterday and a general office voicemail yesterday and a voicemail two minutes ago (11:17 EST on 1/8/24) regarding our concerns about moderating threads and deletions.

A thread listing the ten best threads that John Wesley Harding has started. Ones like top 60 distance runners since WWII, here are the 1000 greatest athletes ever, and welcome to my alternate universe.

Thanks for your diligence Mike. Do you feel you are purposely being ignored by LR staff and mods so they don’t have to answer/be held accountable?
As someone who was in the sport long before LR started, and who has seen the boards evolve (though I have rarely participated in them), I was honestly pretty disgusted by the the MB back in the day. I only recently started looking at the MB again, and it is MUCH better moderated than it was in the past. The MB used to feel like a middle school or high school boys' locker room on - well - steroids. It was gross and stupid. There is a lot more legit posting now. Perfect?
That's actually refreshing to hear because I can get lost in the trees instead of looking at the forest. First thing I do everyday is start moderating so I get depressed about forums but your post and another email we got today were very supportive.
This board is definitely better than it was in the early 2000s. It was the Wild West in the early days.

Have the mods limit the message board to running posts. Delete ALL political, all religious, all hate - STICK TO RUNNING.
Umm are you out of your mind? Distance running is so interdisciplinary you can't merely expect folks to talk only about running per se.
I have been preaching that distance running is completely environmentally imputed. The earth provides the relevant electromagnetic forces that are rapidly varying in space-time for the human body to move over it in a capacitative and inductive manner (in a series of cycles). Understanding how to protect these sacred electromagnetic force cycles of the earth from pollution from anthropogenic RF and EMF would increase pleasure and enjoyment of the human body bounding from one leg to another across the earth's terrain, right? Your new PBs, NRs, WRs, 'second wind' all depend on treating this subject seriously!
Dun come telling me running is only about running. Running is RF Environmental Physics, period!

Let's be clear about something: Journalist are famous for being Atheists and even the moderators swear like sailors on LRC.com. It will not be easy for me to quit this media but for the sake of my mortal soul we all should. Maybe someone with a few bucks can start a new normal for a Running Message Board. How about it boys?
