Most of us have a natural desire to see improvement and progress. Yes, Showcase is better now that they have finally installed a mod. Can we be forgiven for wanting the mod to be less aggressive towards innocent topics and posts? See the progression? - 1)unmoderated trollsville board,2) harshly moderated board - next goal:3) thoughtfully moderated board.
We have come this far by moral suasion. If enough people keep asking the mod, in a reasonable way, to allow us more freedom to be sometimes off-topic without locking the thread, he will eventually see the need to change. I hope.
