FWIW - I have no beef with any of the mods. It is a thankless job. Not one I would want. I want to see the existing rules on the books ENFORCED. Very simple:
1) Must be directly related to Pizzagate - Make the connections. Build the case.
2) Empiricism will be difficult to quantify. May be easier to say that any "claim" needs to be sourced and/or cited.
3) Clarity - Good luck with this. Titles should be related to the post and not contain red herrings or misleading statements. NO LINKS in the title, if I have my way.
Blacksmith, would you be willing to deploy this clarity of vision as a user-mod per the new flair system I outlined in the sticky? That would entail keeping an eye out for the flair and commenting in any posts that have it with simple suggestions to help them edit. You could also DM us to flair posts you feel don't meet these standards. You know I've tried to talk you into modding in the past...
MV, how about you, too? We need all the help we can get with helping people to fix their posts. Leave constructive comments when you see the flair, and @think- and I will do the dirty work if they choose not to edit.

4 & 5) Good to go.
