What impresses me, at this particular moment,
is how fine and nuanced the moderator's distinctions are.

One BS thread still going has lost the Mudcat member who opened the thread.
And I would be wrong, wouldn't I, to say the thread has been hijacked.
The majority of posts on that thread are from a different member.
And because the posts stay more or less on topic,
the thread is not hijacked.

No, it's just being dominated by one person
and the others who post,
including the person who opened the thread,
have said what they have to say
and see no need to repeat themselves.

And it's my problem if I have a problem with whoever is left.
