You folks have everything you need right now.
What has that got to do with anything? Why don't you say this to yourself when you envision the value or benefit of any change in anything at all?

Lol, who remembers when Henry threw that pissy little snowflake tantrum and threatened to leave and make his own forum?
I think I do remember that!

If X offends, put 'em in the penalty box and forget about 'em.
The simple way you are framing it is not as broad as the way it has been framed. You are free to use your simple framing technique on your own life... but I don't think you do. I think you only use it to shut down ideas/suggestions you don't agree with.

your account and what appears on
your screen.
That's your particular opinion. As I've said, I've had (and probably still do) moderation privileges on another philosophy forum and I performed the administrative job well when I was there.
What is this 'well' word relative to EXACTLY?
Did EVERY one think you performed the 'administrative job' 'well'? Did you and just SOME "others" think you performed the 'administrative job' 'well'?
How many were 'they'?
All we are SEEING here is that 'ego', under the label "lacewing', TELL us how 'well' you did your job, from that 'ego's' perspective of 'things' here ONLY.
Absolutely ANY one could come on here and CLAIM that 'I did my job well'.
Also, what are the EXACT REASONS of WHY are you NOT doing 'that job' ANYMORE?
Were there too MANY complaints?
Did you CHOOSE to leave?
Did the owner ask/want you to leave?
Did another one get the position of 'moderator' and REMOVE you from LYING and/or DECEPTION?
Were you FIRED from that job?
If yes, then what for?
Were you FIRED for ABUSE OF POWER when you were a so-called "moderator"?
Is this forum still going?
If yes, then WHY are you NOT there?
But if no, then WHY NOT?
Was your "moderation" a cause in some way?
There are so many unanswered questions here.

I left because that site was too restrictive, which doesn't appeal to me.
Did you leave voluntary?
Were you asked to leave?
Could you have been FORCED to leave, but you just TELL us 'you left'?
And, does it NOT seem somewhat CONTRADICTORY that you left a site because it was 'TOO restrictive' but YET want to make this site 'MORE restrictive', but only UNDER YOUR CONTROL and POWER?
If this does NOT seem somewhat CONTRADICTORY, to you, then just so you KNOW that this is VERY CONTRADICTORY to "others".

The idea presented here is about moderation (of excesses) for an environment that many people use.
Are you even AWARE that some want moderation (of excesses) in relation to what 'you', "lacewing" write and say here, for an environment that many people use?
But MOST do NOT even 'try to' "justify" their OWN tiny, little narrowed and even somewhat VERY CLOSED views here, like 'you' are OBVIOUSLY DOING here, "lacewing".

I am able to separate work from play.
you have made a LOT of PREVIOUS CLAIMS here so far, which have ended up being False, Wrong, or Incorrect. So, WHY should we ACCEPT this here of yours "lacewing"?

And even a smidge of power (of one over another) invites abuse.
Again, the simple and skewed way you frame this is tied to shutting down whatever you don't agree with -- it does not recognize any broader context or application.
LOL
LOL
LOL
And 'this' coming from THE one that WANTS to HAVE POWER and CONTROL OVER "others" here, so that they COULD SHUT DOWN WHATEVER they do NOT AGREE WITH.
"lacewing" 'you' could NOT be coming across MORE CONTRADICTORY and HYPOCRITICAL here even if you wanted to.
