What are the Pub's Positive Patterns?
Amber:
I think that reminding people that what they post here is here forever and in print might work better than asking them to use filters they might not have IRL. (I know I lack real filters IRL.)
Is there a way to make previewing your post before hitting "post" mandatory? A required "think twice" button?

Not to mention a wiseass comment for every spelling and grammar mistake you might make. ;D

More mods, definately, even if they're just "assistants" who only really act as Junior G-Men for the Off Topic section, trying to settle things escacalating to teh real live grown up mods onlyh when necessary. But they'll need official status, call em wardens, paranet assistants, doormen, whatever. otherwise, many will just say "bossy old timers yelling at me, you're not the boss of me!" To which the Li'l Modlings can say "No, but I work for the boss of you, see the title?"
I'm not sure about pre-approving worry room threads, that'll make a delay and if someone's having an absolute shitstorm (Mom's sick, cat's dying and I lost my job today), the hugs and "Jesus, CALL A DOCTOR NOW!" posts will be delayed. Plus it's more work for whoever has to police it. I think with more eyes on 'em, maybe some Official Worry Room Nannies, we can grinch badness before it gets rolling to fast and splashes on Iago's boots.
Paynesgrey:
Hell, I'll volunteer for the duty, but only if I get to have a cool title like "Super Angst Haus Death Nanny, Don't Make Me, like, tell one of the real mods to tell you to shut up, because they'll be pissed I had to bother them about your stupid BS."
Hey, I can dream, can't I?

Merge that with the LOLcat thread: "I Can Haz a Art". :D
