Adding a few Moderators?

I realize that's my issue, because he's all grown up and stuff and can choose to ignore those things. Hell, Iago's so busy, I feel bad for bugging him, too. So I only hit the report to mod when it's really, really severe (generally). Maybe there are others who feel the same way? I didn't even think about hitting it on some of the issues I had in the Spoilers board until one of the mods (ashton?) pointed out that there's no way for them to know about issues unless we point it out.

I know that's what I've always done. I try to work out any problems at the time they happen, like two rational grown ups. I've only hit the Mod button when people have gotten nasty and personally abusive. I know we are supposed to let the Mods know when there are problems, but I've found most of the time just trying to nicely talk about it being a problem solves it and then there is nothing to report since it stops.

It's a common enough thread that I think we'll be making some more explicit statements to the forum that the button needs to be used.
I also need to look into whether or not we can insulate Jim from getting those notices without eliminating his moderator power. I'm not sure there's a way to do it that wouldn't also strip away his ability to get notified of replies to threads he wants notification of.

I certainly don't object when folks can work things out. :)
What bothers me is folks saying that they have persistent issues which they haven't reported but are upset we haven't fixed.
