Need more moderators? Do we really have to recruit just anyone?

This Intermezzo individual is fundamentally unqualified to serve as a moderator for the social science section.

To start with, the man clearly lacks a basic grasp of the American language. And we're talking about a DS moderator! 😵

Furthermore, he’s out there deleting posts, presumably because it bruises his ego when someone else manages to write a coherent thought better than he can.

What’s the point of me putting effort into a post just to have some random American toss it straight into the trash?

If you can't find anyone competent enough to handle moderation, that certainly isn't a valid excuse to recruit outsiders who seem more interested in serving an agenda of foreign interests.

If this is the direction your moderation policy is heading—scrubbing anything that might cause even a hint of friction—then this forum is well and truly doomed.

It honestly sounds like you’re just venting because one of your posts got nuked. If I recall correctly, the last time Chris Myers had to wipe one of your comments was back on January 2nd, and you were busy taking shots at the moderation team. And before that, on December 31st, there was that one where you were being pretty much nothing but rude and throwing out ad hominems.

Wait, wasn't my post from yesterday—or perhaps my early morning one from today—already removed?

If it actually hasn't been deleted yet, then I owe you an apology; I must be losing my mind.

Even if I had wanted to, I couldn't have deleted anything for you. I was out cold on a 15-hour flight over the Pacific Ocean... Anyway, sending my best to bluecyclist64 from Hong Kong.

I'm actually here on a covert mission, bluecyclist64—conquering Kin... specifically the locals, all in service of American expansionist policy. 😂

Here is your most recent post on DZ.

And here is your last post over on linguistics.

Nothing after that has been deleted at all.

And that was the breaking point for me.
Please accept my apologies; feel free to lock this thread if necessary.

EDIT: There’s another discussion going on about politicians getting rich, which is likely why I got my wires crossed.🙈
