    Quoted from robin:

    Moderation.
    Moderation is there to help make this place better. I know some people don't think it does, but there are plenty of unmoderated places on the web to go to, if you like to be a rebel or if you think it's cool to use profanity, attack others, write only negativity etc. Pinside is not the place for that. We have some community rules here to keep a positive pinball vibe going, the Pinside cannot exist without it. The mods are volunteers, hand-picked by me because of their levelheadedness and because they're around when I can't be. They do their best to make sure the site rules are lived by. Obviously the mods aren't without fault (who is?), and yes it's very tough to be consistent all the time. But all in all, I think they're doing a great job keeping the Pinside the goto place for pinball discussion, news and more! We might be needing more moderators soon, the ratio is currently 1 mod for 100 people .

    "levelheadedness? for the most part yes but you have a couple that have no business being moderators. mods aren't without fault? understatement. for the most part the do a fine job. there are a couple that have no business being moderators. I'd call them out here but I don't want another ban vote.
