And did I ever say anything like "do whatever you want despite disrespecting or harming other people?". Nope. In fact, if you read my post again, it starts asking why you should stop doing something
that causes no harm. Furthermore, I also said that if that thread had become a burden for you, you didn't have to worry for those people not getting their birhtday congrats.

That's mainly why I don't see where the harm was in your birthday thread, but I might have lost something here...
It just seemed to me that you got sad and disappointed after
valerie gave you her advice, and I thought that maybe because she's a moderator you had thought that you were doing something wrong and were going to force yourself to stop, so I wanted to give you a different view, in case it might be of any help to you.
But I can see I was totally wrong.
mkpit wrote:and hey about Valerie...are you saying "she is not getting paid for moderator work"?
What I meant is that when she contributes to General Talk on any thread which is not related to work or earnings, she doesn't get paid (like the rest of us), that is, she does it because she chooses to spend some of her time doing it, for the sake of it, for pleasure or whatever you want to call it. I've read at some point that moderators don't get paid for doing their job, but honestly, I don't care about that, I was just giving an example. I can see you missed my whole point here...
Anyway, my apologies if any of my words caused you to feel offended or anything. I meant absolutely the opposite.
Regards.
