I agree there is a need for a moderator. I haven't posted on any board that was consumer run. I can just imagine the kinds of problems you could run into. I've been here on this board for a while now - mostly posting on the Alternative or the Main boards. I do like it though I don't always agree with or understand the moderator's decisions.
