On moderators, from a moderator, at Planebusiness:
"That's easy... Try to keep the discussion civil and on-topic. For some forums, that is more of a challenge than others!
Moderators have the power to edit and even delete posts which cross the line, but I don't see where that has been used that often on this board. We also have the ability to move threads between forums as needed, and to close threads.
I try to check my forum at least twice a day, but fortunately things have been quiet lately there, and in general, the discussion here on PBB are usually quite civil and don't require a lot of watching over.
Give it a try. You can always give it up if you don't like it."
