I think the Mods here have done a great job compare to some other forums I'm on(which will remain nameless ) I don't seen the harm in a few jokes in threads to lighten the mood. And a few jokes from the mods from time to time. Make it seem like they are humans and not mindless robot that's ready to ban you at any given Sunday. Sometimes threads get out of hand and that's when they step in an well "mod". So to the OP imma tell you like my grandfather told me don't take life to serious cause no one ever makes it out alive anyway
Cheers
