At least I've already heard from them asking for a comment from Steve. :)
Who was it that contacted? A you a massive guy with a suit on, a top hat, a cane, a handlebar moustache, a thick posh Brit accent, and a laugh which would move mountains? Well, that is what I think of when I consider a Daily Mail representative. The Daily Mail was hilariously biased during the Scottish Independence Referendum.

It would be nice if they would actually read ALL of his tweets about this and put them in context. These were his follow up tweets:

"The most important thing we can do as artists and creative people is make sure everyone has the same fair shot, regardless of sex, color, or orientation. Right now such people are badly under-represented, and not only in the arts."

"You can't win awards if you're shut out of the game."
thats the part they under emphasize .......& doing that is morally criminal

The email didn't include a photo. :)

Its a thread I mean, I was just wondering if other factors played a part but its all fine now! :)
No, this is not the reason why the Board is being shuttered. It's being shuttered because I am retiring at the end of June and there will not be someone replacing my position. It was, however, part of the reason why we reduced the hours from the former 24/7 that the Board was open to only being open when I am on duty and the evenings of those same days. I felt it was unfair to the volunteer moderators to be asking them to put in more time than I was, particularly on the weekends when they should be able to enjoy their free time.
sorry.
