May CGI slowly drain away your youth & vigor until you're little more than feckless husks.

Congrats to new mods! ;)

We were already soulless husks to start with.

I don't think I said that the right way. What I mean is that (IMO, of course) the forums would benefit from rules being *slightly* less strictly enforced in general. I'm not so much asking for a change in policy as I am encouraging mods to err on the side of being too lenient.

We take the context of the discussion as a really big aspect in moderation's... So a sly under-handed comment might go un-moderated if it was a once off, but if a user has a blatant history of doing it successively in a thread to derail or troll, we might pull them up on it.

There is allot of decision making that goes behind the scenes, moderators don't just go off on a ban-happy tangent, we discuss it with each other first.

Either way, not sure this is the right thread for this discussion, maybe the moderator thread would be a better place to discuss any concerns you may have? Or feel free to message me or any other moderator privately, we are all ears.
