| Meet the Mods |
1. Moderators
are the Emily-empowered cool cats who linger in the forum
keeping an eye on things. Things like mean insults, persistent
cussing, forum abuse, (to name a few) are not welcomed
here. This is a community where new and old individual
Emily fans can meet and converse in a positive way. Freedom
of expression is a golden right, but if you read the Terms
of Use you already agreed to when signing up, you will
know you blew it in some way when one of the moderators
deletes your post(s) or with repeat offenders, even deletes
your access to this forum. Mods can also help you if you need to delete a post for some reason (said something stupid lately?)
2. Please do not insult moderators. That will
get you nowhere other than looking like a fool on the
same page as mature members. We
like to think of moderators as other kitty friends very
close to Mystery, Miles, NeeChee and Sababth. Moderators
lurk in the shadows, they protect other cats from a distance,
and they are welcome to snuggle around a fire with all
Emily's cats on a cold night. But if they are attacked,
they will scratch back AND cut deep! (...Hmmm, we could
make a really good comic out of that.) Be
cool. End of story. |

if you wish. |
| |
| Feedback |
We encourage
all feedback, negative and postive. Several of the EmilyStrange.com
crew receive each feedback you submit. We will try to
answer all we can but more importanty we do read them
and act on any errors or problems you've alerted us to. |
| |
| Log Out |
Means 'Cya next time.' If you
share a computer, it is strongly recommend you log out
after each S.O.S. session. Who wants their kid brother
getting back into the forum under YOUR member name?! |
