I disagree. I've never personally seen the point in drilling down specific mods to specific areas of a forum, unless those mods had specific relevant insight/knowledge that lent itself to the area. The main point of which being that if the one or two people "assigned" to this or that area become busy in their personal lives, that area goes ignored because the other mods are "assigned" to their separate little corners.

I don't think that is a good idea, and I don't think it has any place here. Other boards are other boards- they are not the TFP.

The mod staff controlling the whole of the board was the norm for a long time (if not since the beginning) and that's remained constant, despite the "changes" that have gone on. I think even one of shesus' school children can tell you that since things were fine at one point, and the mod arrangement (i.e. not having specific forums) hasn't changed, then the mod arrangement has nothing to do with the issues we're facing- there are some other catalysts at work here.

Also: I'm not really sure why the rules seem tough, I'd like to have a good dialog with someone about that. It seems like they're pretty straight-forward... be respectful, post quality, and participation advances you in the boards. I think those 3 things sum it all up nicely- do those things and I can't see where you could really stray.

Everything else is common sense... don't know where a potential thread should go? Take a moment and think. Is this a discussion? Put it in general discussion. Is this about your car? Tilted Motors. Are you female and you want to talk to other females about your female down-there-parts? Ladies Lounge. Talking about sex and relationships? Sexuality. Life? Tilted living. It's really not difficult if you consider that they're all labeled for what they contain. Discussions, sexuality, living, parenting, pets... whatever you want to start a discussion about, there is a forum you can put it in.

I also want to stress that you all can PM us to ask us questions. It seems like sometimes things are complained about that could have been resolved if someone had used the "report this post to a moderator" button or just PM'ed one of us for help. We want to help you out if you're having an issue. I know for myself, I am available constantly (especially at night time into morning) and I'm happy to help you out with anything I can. We can be a great resource if you're feeling confused about a rule or something... use that resource before you become disenchanted.
