We do need Moderators...there is no doubt.
Last year things got so out of control on FT that many long time posters left.
Why did this happen? Here are some reason that I have thought about
:
- FT grew very rapidly due to press coverage
- Randy & Co. are too busy with core business
- No dedicated FT employee or board
- FT is a community...therefore disruptable
- Some people are over-sensitive
- Virtual nature of the Internet
We need Moderators, not to necessarily moves posts around, but to be the firefighters for those times when needed.
