    There has been a slight addition to the flame bait rule, which is the following:

    The appropriate response to flamebaiting is to report the post. Members who respond to flamebaiting in kind will receive less consideration for their reports than those who ignore the baiting or respond in a civil manner.

    In addition, members can now view who has been banned, for what, and for how long. It is located under "Quick Links" on the navigation bar.

    Welcome to our two new moderators: @Davocrat and @mtm1963.

    There shouldn't be anymore changes in staff for the foreseeable future.

    New addition to rule #7 about quesitoning moderation and the moderators publicly:

    First time offense will now be a mandatory infraction. Second offense will be an automatic 1 day ban. Third offense will be 2 days... and so on
    Moderators volunteer for the position they're in - they don't need to constantly be taking shots from members. If you have an issue with a moderation action you have several options:

    1. Fill out the Member Grievances System form which the council members will review
    2. PM all of the council members at once
    3. PM myself
    4. Not bitch about it on the public boards.

    No other options. I'm not going to allow volunteers to be nit-picked at constantly.
