I know it's not been the whole 6 months we discussed last time, but it is indeed time to talk about the RULES.
As you all know, we have a place for meta talk about the rules and the mods, /v/pizzagatemods. It's not overly public, and it's not the most elegant solution to cluttering the front page here, but that's what we have.
This sticky is here because the usual monthly concern-trolling, and @Millenium_Falcon attacking by @ESOTERICshade gathered enough notice to warrant one.
This was the deleted post. This is the post I made with my findings on the issue.
As always, mods serve at the pleasure of the users of the subverse. Please make your voices heard.
This sticky is both a polling and a discussion. Discuss whatever, wherever, but the polling will function like this:
POLLING
On a base-level comment, type any of these numbers you agree with, in any order.
1 - Rules are fine, don't change them
2 - Mods are doing a good job, don't remove them
3 - Mods aren't doing enough, and need to recruit more mods, and remove more submissions.
4 - Mods are not doing a good job, we need to talk about removing them
5 - Rules are not fine, we need to change them
6 - Mods need to lighten up and let more things slide, let's talk about that.
7 - Try no rules and no moderation for a couple of weeks
8 - No rules and no moderation in perpetuity.

Millennial_Falcon seems to be a popular whipping boy here. Those that show up in /v/pizzagatemods with complaints tend to target him almost exclusively. The people attacking him seem to think they're not alone, but fail to provide any evidence of wrongdoing.
Keep in mind, your accusations and support for them will not just be taken at face value, like every accuser so far seems to have expected. They will be researched thoroughly, and if there is merit to them, something WILL be done. Please feel free to be the first to provide evidence of wrongdoing on his part.
And by all means, comment on any other mod you have an issue with. Hell, if you guys want ME gone, I'll hand over the reigns to whomever you think is worthy.
Poll will end on the 18th.
Oh,
9 - Stop asking us this crap for 6 months FOR REAL this time!

Hey, @Millennial_Falcon, do you want to take a 2 week vacation from all of this? Just let the PG users find out what it would be like?

KEK. RUF-I-O! RUF-I-O! RUF-I-O!
I have considered the idea of trying no moderation for a period of time, so people can see what would happen, but I don't really think the loudest of the complainers are genuine (and some of them are mentally ill), and I don't think the majority of users should be punished for the behavior of a few shills and lunatics.

Kinda not terribly happy with the amount of users responding here so far. I'm debating turning the sub to private for some period of time just so they'll wake up and weigh in. Probably a bad idea, but it crossed my mind.
Do you like any of the other ideas presented?

I like the idea of flairing/flagging certain posts instead of immediately removing.

You always complain you have no time to read over posts before you delete them and you want to concentrate on the summary (which is good by the way). I've never been vocal about you before but you seem to not give a shit about deleting things on some power trip. You need to be disciplined at a very minimum because you are out of control. I'm a fair person, always have been but your calls have been terrible. Imagine if someone pulled down your PG summary and just dismissed your complaints.
