And, Fly Free, I seriously hope you're not accusing me and the mod team for "protecting" pedophiles.
Seems like the direction all this is taking is the fact that perhaps some members feel that any one of the moderators should have their mod powers stripped away and take the fall for this whole situation, not. For one thing, we don't play favorites here in AD whatsoever, I sure don't!! Ever since my days of monitoring a chat room for 4 yrs., I did my best to be there for 'everyone'...so each one could feel comfortable and happy being there, always the one to bend backwards in time of help or need with any member...therefore, not only do I set aside my own personal feelings from my Mod feelings/duties, I was thankfully raised up to respect and reach out to everyone I could possibly do so as I would like to be treated the same as well.
Treating everyone fairly is one of the key factors I live by...when members can't seem to 'let go' or cease the badgering/bashing, then to be fair for 'other' members, certain actions are taken, whether it be a warning or a ban. As for bans, members here do not have the right to know the reasons why a member was banned, that is confidential and is to remain that way. As for reasons, or any member confiding information, etc., I keep those confidential as well, as each member has that right and the respect...and trust.
Also, all this 'nitpicking' and frivolous nonsense about this and that, poking around aimlessly with questions that apparently seem to be moot but simply is bringing about more discord (strife, dispute, disagreement) instead. That's what I'm seeing here lately and it's something that AD does NOT need....Alex already pointed out in his first post--TO MOVE ON!!
Bottom line, I'm a fair and reasonable guy...more importantly, the power of forgiveness has taught me much as well as the Love I continue to get from above--everyone is unique in their own way, yet, when the bashing, the slandering, the accusing, etc., is going on and on...there's a time where we must draw the line...in some cases, members will be banned, other cases, members will be warned and then in other cases, we'll either close/lock up threads as well as trying to maintain harmony throughout AD. A few rotten apples can ruin so much...nothing is ever 'swept' under a cyper-rug whatsoever, no one knows how much this Mod Team/Administrator works together behind it all, striving to maintain peace and a place of enjoyment for all members. I'm very honored to be with the Mod Team and Alex is very much more than a 'fair' man....My hat's off to Alex for all he has done, to all the members who have stood by the Mod Team/Administrator, thank you!!
Now...let's stop with the bickering and nitpicking--it IS time to move on...as for questions unanswered, like Alex stated, go to Taylor or BD/RS to know the whole truth. We've done our part...let us continue with our duties and as for you members, let's rock AD in a great way, holidays are coming up....it's a time for harmony to prevail throughout AD.
Peace to you all--

I´m sorry to say that there´re wrong on both sides.
Alex should talk Taylor straight way after found out something.......
Taylor should talk Alex first before do something....
Oh well, I do not against them because I know everyone make mistakes... Nobody are prefect.
I´m glad that Alex stood up himself here but I hope Taylor do the same, too.
guys... i decided to prove it for once and for all... im gonna arrange a trip to visit domino once i get her guardians approval.
i am discussing this with her. and again u guys are putting blame on other people... *sigh* pretty soon i wont care if i get banned or not.
I do not know if you are playing game with us by acting alike 14 years old. For one many kids at that age are too busy to hang around with their peers, cuz I know I was once parents of 14 years old kids. Why would they want talk with older men or women here on AD or other forums. We are just a bunches of boring people for bunches of youngsters to hang around with. It does not make any senses. Sorry but I have a reason to doubt u. U should not be hang around with us adult period. U should be hang around with your age if ur true only 14 years old. I forbid mine if they come into chat room with olders. I had to monitor my sons when they were teenagers, now they are adults and they are into their own world but not to hang around with us olders still even they are in early 20's.and since i am troublemaker, maybe alex should ban me too. none of this would have happened if it werent for me. i dont want to leave here cuz i have friends but if that is the right thing for everyone then maybe i should. school is back anyway and i should focus on that.

Domino Harvey,
I'm just going to go right out and say it, there more that you're not telling, why? Let me tell you, the first time you created a thread stating your crush for someone from AD, Who was around 30's.. Guess what, Taylor is around that age, I think you used steve to get close to Taylor, and pretty much sums up that you are just want attention, and now you're getting all the attention, but honey, I wasn't born yesterday, I know people when I see right through them just like how I see through you, I think you are playing this game just to get close to Taylor, it's not that I care, it just that you're not being 100 percent honest as far as I see how the way you post. You also stated that you like older men, You were the one throwing the bait around to get old men to run after you. Now you want me to feel sorry for you? Well I don't. If I had a daugther with a screen name of 2hot4u, She would be grounded for life, and a computer wouldn't be there for her anymore.
If I'm being harsh, I'm sorry but I'm not going to sit here and having you try to get pity from people, it doesn't work that way with me.
