This is not true at all, I am personal friends with a number of the mods, none of them are allowing bad behavior in that group and none of them promote bad behavior in the outdoors. And they certainly aren't sweeping anything under a rug.

Down voting it, doesn't make it any less true. Interesting response though.

  You can't downvote direct responses to comments, so it wasn't me. But yes, they absolutely do sweep it under the rug. Anytime someone calls out bad behavior, the comment threads are locked. People who consistently call out bad behavior are banned ("put on the scat list"), and it's expected that you just "scroll on". Ann was, as far as I could tell, the only one who would create campaigns on awareness. It has to be one of the worst run Facebook groups on, well, Facebook. There's another group called "You run a Facebook group, not a country, but OK," which pretty much targets the overbearing moderation practices exemplified by that group. And no, I've never been banned, so you can save that assumption :)

    well when you moderate a group that big(for free, in your spare time) and have first hand experience you can speak to how they are handling things, otherwise its just another uninformed opinion. How else would you deal with threads that are constantly off topic? Aside from turn comments off? How else do you deal with someone that keeps whining about the group and how its members act? How its moderated? If you don't like it, leave. ya know? it's exactly how id treat someone that kept complaining... show them the door. Many have left on their own to form different groups. Anne was a great lady, but to say she was the only one moving the needle or to assume they are hiding things is just bizarre to me.
