> [@Larry\_Borgia](#): > > Yeah, I’m not HD’s biggest fan, but that note should have only consisted of the last sentence. Another vote for this sentiment. Not that modding should ever be done by member vote - it shouldn’t - but it’s good that voices can be heard and considered by TPTB. ---

> [@KarlGauss](#): > > Rule 34? Mod Position? Is that, like, what, the missionary position? You’re not American so you may have missed the so-called joke. Rule 34 says that if it exists there is porn of it on the internet. And that’s wrong. I exist but there is no porn of me on the internet. Hmm. Maybe that means I’m a secret Mod and didn’t know it. ---
