Thanks. I'm familiar with the forum rules and have been here long enough to know modding is light. I think "be respectful" is a pretty broad rule that covers a lot, but I don't see how to operationalize enforcing it without quite a bit more mod involvement. Ultimately a lot of this is mod discretion, which is just asking a lot of only a couple of mods.
... and I thought @MustacheAndaHalf but I don't see their account listed with mod privileges.
As far as I know, the forums only have a few mods - @FrugalToque and @arebelspy, @MMM who is rarely around, and I thought @MustacheAndaHalf but I don't see their account listed with mod privileges.It seems that the mods have a pretty light touch when it comes to moderation, and I am wondering if this is philosophical, due to lack of volunteer power, or both. I think mod presence is particularly important when threads on sensitive topics appear, and I'm pretty dismayed with the lack of mod response in the LGBTQ+ thread. It's not for lack of bringing it to the moderators' attention.
