How about Brenski? Just kidding - no offense :) I don't know him/her but his posts entertain me. I agree about needing some moderation. I have been lurking here for about 2 years and have been hesitant to post anything. I think it is because I fear the negativity engendered by the trolls will be vented on me if I post something that isn't witty or has been covered before. From what I have read over the years, I agree that Zebonka would be an excellent choice.

And that's the issue right there, as I've tried to express many times before. It's not just the current conversation people crap all over, it's all the conversations that will never happen because of it. I hope you'll wade in despite your fears. There will always be people around willing to support fellow posters in situations that are unreasonable.

Be the change you wish you see in the world.
Even if it's just on a forum.

Bumping this, in the hopes that either Richard or YV will finally take notice, and acknowledge the topic

I'm disgusted that it even is a topic, considering I've been around so long and still haven't been tapped for moderating. Thing is now (believe it or not) I don't think I could visit reliably enough to do the job properly anymore. I do get a lot of free time, but the ability to just SWOOP on bullshit when I see it is no longer guaranteed.
Oh well. You had your chance.

I still have some free time. I could do it. I don't have nearly the credentials as some other candidates, but it would certainly be possible for me to act as moderator.
Either Richard and YV just don't visit anymore whatsover, which is really sad that they would do that without putting some sort of plan in place, or they see all this and aren't doing anything about it which is also quite sad.
Just SAY SOMETHING!

And this post would immediately have been deleted. There, moderation *can* be that simple, inoffensive and uncontroversial, so long as it's just a means of removing spam and meaningless flame posts, and not a petty dictatorship like QOL's forums.

Thomasquinn summed it up in the best possible way.
I don't think his post can be topped.

Inu's hypocritical trolling of the forums by posting Gerry's picture in the General Discussion Adam Lamberty definitely surpasses it:

If so, you do realize that publishing someone's identity on an internet forum is absolutely out of order don't you? It's the worst kind of stalking/trolling/bullying. And yet you have the gall to ask on the personal forum that Queenzone be moderated! If it were, you would be warned or banned. What's worse is that I'm the only one to mention it.

i could easily report him for doing that, and have him banned from this site.
yes it is the worst kind of bullying /stalking.
i am utterly disgusted that anybody could do that, on these sites.
What was he trying to prove for showing my face pic?
