Mods, thank you all for saving the day every day. Thank you a hundred times. (On behalf of these 99% of lurkers that benefit your work the most but never say anything.) (Flag this.)
(Is sctb still a moderator? Looks like his last post was 8 or so months ago.)
Nevertheless, thanks to you dang for the amazing work you do, and to Scott for the work he did do.
Is there now (or will there) be a new person on the team?
It has become impossible to talk about anything slightly controversial that detractors don't even try since they'll just get downvoted and flagged into oblivion.
[1] Subjective justifications cannot teach anyone anything, as people can't know what exactly is the problem, only that they have to shut up, because moderator doesn't like what they are discussing.
That's other users, not dang.
Importantly, I have changed my opinions on certain aspects of technology or politics based on rational civilized discourse that happens here. Disagreement is actually an active and important part of such discussions.
