We have one goal with this and that is to make sure it works. After two weeks of making sure our plans are doable and with the feedback we receive from the 3 amigos, we will introduce 12 other members to help you out. They are here only to make sure your experience while on FlyerTalk is everything you want it to be.

Randy,
As a member who has been here since 1999... I really appreciate the great lengths you have gone to, to keep Flyertalk on the right track.
I have been impressed by this. I was concerned several times when flaming and personal attacks were the flavour of the day. We lost many good posters to those "misbehaving" few. But I am happy with the new guidelines that will not take effect unless someone crosses a line.
Thank you for your help and for providing more staff to help flyertalk run smoother. (and boy has it grown... so it needs more people!)

Knock it off, doc! FT'ers have access to newspapers, offline as well as online. We don't need you to republish info from other sources.
You are an unbelievable jerk!</font>

If there is a reason why nothing is being done about this, please let me know.
Thanks!

doc, you've made your point abundantly clear in other threads. No need to repeat yourself.

Getting back to the topic of this thread, which is the presence or absence of moderators: The "Only Randy Petersen" thread served a valuable function, that of allowing FTers to address questions to Mr. Petersen that were appropriate to plague him with. (E.g., "big picture" questions about airline programs, competition in the industry, and so on.) It got cluttered with complaints and backbiting about FT, and that clutter drowned out the good stuff.
Suggestion: reopen the forum only after a moderator is signed up who is prepared to prune and lock threads that are off-topic or that start to attract flames and bickering. Mr. Petersen's time for this non-paying endeavor is limited, and we as the beneficiaries of FT should be prepared to step in and cut down the off-topic clamor.
