And rather than "HR Manager", we could use the terminology most websites (and thus, most web users) are already familiar with. Like, "moderator". And the person in charge of it could be.. I dunno, the "head moderator"?

That's Level 2 sarcasm. You're in fighting shape today Allen.

I'm fine with that, but I think KillerB and his pals would find the results exceedingly unfavorable. Especially since my expectation would be that the first "HR Manager" would be Boffo97 (and rightly so).
What part about "fire every mod" didn't you understand?

This would be a new CC position. I trust Maggie or Jon Carter can find a reasonable person. And if they're not reasonable then they get voted out.

Or if they are a tyrant with a majority mob behind them then this place can continue to go down the shitter.

So let me make sure I understand what you're saying...

You want the moderation function (call it what you want) to be handled by the CC?

Aren't you the guy who spent years raging against the Green Badge Army?

You've come full circle.

We're in the Bylaw Era now. I have to give Maggie a shot to do things right. The mods and CoC have failed us now.

You're censoring people and lying about it. Time for you to go too bubba.
Since when are spambots people?

Right. And Boffo is said reasonable person -- a fairly experienced mod whose actions reflect a centrist record, neither too lax nor too strict for the community's overall preferences. An ideal candidate, attractive to any hiring committee and capable of commanding broad community support. Yes, your solution sounds better and better to me!

(I'd suggest Sykes as well, but I imagine after four years as Head Mod you couldn't pay him enough to deal with this via a board position.)

Then he can fucking apply for the position. But right now I'm believing my conspiracy theory that the DELETE ORDER is coming from the top.

Could you please post your conspiracy theories elsewhere, then?

(That's how you want us to deal with this, right? Just ask you to stop?)

Of course you're believing your own conspiracy theory.

Why try to get facts when you can just make shit up in your head? So much easier, that.

I'm not making up you deleting posts and bullshitting about it.

Now we live in a nerd world where the mods can delete anything and call it "spam". No appeals. That's great buddy. Good work. This is who you always wanted to be.
