I would love just to just run the site, unfortunately if I and the other mods did that it would run right into the ground. Being a moderator isn't just being the bad guy and putting a stop to certain posts, it's also getting rid of trolls, spammers, etc. The reason why we need to delete posts and warn people or ban them is so this place isn't a hell hole.

Websites that don't get moderated for quality end up like the PD. Websites that don't get moderated at all just end up being filled with porn. Spam and porn. Trust us, you don't want that. We want to do as little work as possible, that all depends on what is being posted by the users. Luckily most of the posters here don't require attention from us, but if something gets out of line then we react.

Ok I concur with all you said except the porn part.... come on bro! I like to see ladies ;) lol

Exactly. We try not to get involved unless a situation calls for it.

And I can make this guarantee to any poster here, ROD will never become what the PD has become. It simply won't be tolerated and we'll make sure it doesn't happen.
