Look, I'm long past caring. The members of this forum can't decide among themselves whether it should be open season on each other vs a whinefest with dozens of abuse reports on each thread. We've tried to accomodate you both ways and have cycled several times between a hands off policy vs responding to abuse reports in the same manner as the other forums. Neither seems to work. It's up to the posters to solve the issue.

Instead of having some anonymous Moderator appointed by someone who is past caring, couldn't we instead elect our own moderators who would be known to everyone?

The anonymous moderator has only a slim chance of working. Because if the moderator is an active poster on this forum and he/she remains anonymous then he/she is opening him/herself up for accusations of partiality or taking it out on people he/she has arguments with.

That way there would be no, well fewer, claims of bias because it would be known where the moderator was coming from.

That's my $0.02.

Remove the abuse button or disable it in the religion forum, that should take care of the problem.

I move that a killfile should be added.
