I think that we need to lay off this MOD issue. Everyone likes to blame them, while ignoring their own faults. They'd only get to you if you've been naughty, and that's their job. Which I think they are doing rather well.
Perhaps newbies don't know about the olden times before this whole MOD system, when NSFW pics were okayish and abuse would go around unnoticed. That was good time indeed but for a small community and a developing site.
Today this is Pakistan's biggest and greatest webspace for people like us, it has matured with some responsibilities and attitude. It's a civilized society now, and societies need rules and people to enforce them. You cannot expect it to be all wild wild west.
I've been here for 9 years, there had been time when my posts were deleted, and recently when I was given a warning, but truth to be told that was my fault. I still have no major complaints or grudge against any one.
