Why is Occam a moderator?

I’ve never seen an unreasonable post from Occam.  I’ve never seen him go personal on someone or be unduly harsh when someone made an intelligent and/or well reasoned point.

With your educational background, you should have no problem defending your positions and if someone is attacking you personally, it’s an opportunity to point out that your opposition is ducking the issue.

Mriana, I was hoping you’d know anything about the reason for his absence.

I know, but I don’t feel I’m at liberty to discuss it.

I don’t mean to be bumping into a conversation about a topic I know nothing about, but if you look at Occam’s profile, you’ll see he’s been lurking around the edges as recently as today.

It would seem a shame for one short-fused neophyte participant to chase away a seasoned and informed moderator.

You’re right, I didn’t think about that wink . Thank you and I don’t think it’s this person that got him off. I think he maybe is really busy moderating different (s) forum(s) as things get hectic here and there. I really hope he’ll come back soon though .

@ Mriana, I understand and thanks for answering.
