Moderator Simon is going wild again.

Falsely accusing others about "going Wild" in the Brexit tread, but read his own remarks and language use.
Threatening with Warnings and Ban again, for what? Making a polite remark "I am surprised"

Somebody please explain this guy the basics about a moderator status:

-a referee doesn't touch the ball
-a referee stays neutral in the differences between camps
-when the referee clearly isn't neutral, the remark "you are not neutral" doesn't lead to a ban of the guy that made the remark.
-a referee that clearly isn't neutral, and threatens to make abuse of his powers, has to get thrown out.
-when the referee wants to play football, he first ends his status and joins a team.

If you have a problem with the moderator then why not report it to Dave?

No one can be neutral. Everyone has an opinion. I'd rather someone be honest about not being neutral, rather than pretending to be unbiased.

I am an admin on another forum and I differentiate between moderation posts and personal posts.
So admin posts are in red and normal user posts are in black, perhaps an idea for the moderators here.
But admins are allowed to have a personal opinion and this can be biased, the role of admin is not of a referee, there is no match, it is keeping the forum readable and get rid of people that are not "nice".

Unfortunately this is true.  Look at the US Supreme Court

I have not read the massive Brexit thread, but I agree that moderators have their own opinions on topics and are entitled to express it.
Don't forget that Simon is the 3rd highest poster on the forum, and the 2nd highest topic starter behind myself. Only a small percentage of that would be moderator comments. He got the job in the first place because he was one of the highest posters on the forum at the time.

That's not a bad idea, and I actually do that occasionally so the moderation posts stands out.
