Lets try real hard to keep this on topic, and not give the mods any excuse to just lock this thread without addressing any of it.

I might be a good idea to mail some suggestions for the Moderation staff to consider. We need more Moderators who are more in touch with the NSG community.

Probably not. And if they did, I doubt they care enough about our whining to add a significant number of mods.

Email. It tells you how to do this in the thread, people.


Well, I've never considered anyone for Mod nor thought about emailing a mod because I feel that what I'll get is a snippy remark about pestering through emails. I know TGs are out of the question as, IIRC, mods don't like to receive TGs dealing with forum issues to their personal inbox.

I support peace in Israel and Palestine. The governments and people in power on all sides are an absolute disgrace, and their unwillingness to pursue peace is a disservice to the people they are meant to be serving. The status quo is not simply untenable; it is unquestionably unacceptable.
