It really needs to be anonymous, as I've stated in the PF. GAWD.
I don't do Debates and Spirits.
Other forums have few problems.
One major problem is limited alerts. Users tend to rather bash about than alert something. Many forum users would rather stand ground than use the alert when confronted.
Perhaps I should start a thread asking for more alerts.
Anyway, some help is due... I don't see much of a better way for Russ to ask.

Which is?

I think one big problem are the threads where mods are explaining themselves and arguing with posters who feel wronged and are attacking mods for removal, bias, whatever. It's ridiculous.

(1) Principle of 'need to know' (Russ & Chris are under no obligation whatever to announce their selection of volunteer staff at a point in time or to muddy the fixed Site Map water by revealing their identities to the site membership rank and file).
(2) Principle of fairness to all members (served by eliminating the penalizing target otherwise circumstantially and permanently pinned to the backs of volunteer mods).
(3) Principle of effective use of limited resources (by creating an environment which enables/leverages unencumbered and effective interaction... rather than strain to become more efficient within a context conducive to promoting inefficiency.
