Questions and complaints about moderation + unlisted, mostly unmoderated, free discussion

I won’t come as a surprise to you that I am in favor of slightly more active moderation so that no one person dominates the conversation. It was in that spirit that I hid the topic Titanium vs Tungsten Tethers You say it is spreading misinformation so hiding it is a way of privately letting each side present their arguments and sources without wasting the rest of the visitors’ time with stuff that’s irrelevant to them. If really it turns out the topic is spreading misinformation it can stay hidden.

Personally I don’t care for that topic as I don’t see the relevance to AWE.

That quickly becomes a shitty volunteer part-time job. I’m sure we all have better things to do than fact-checking every little thing someone on the internet claims. Let’s hope some new rules will put more of the burden of the fact-checking on the poster themselves, like it should be.
