Sorry if I came around the wrong way before, I just don't see the point in this discussion, it was triggered by jalyst commenting on edits of other posts as they where quoted and he then changed the quote and did not comment there too. In general the mods are held to be transparent about their actions but not to the public, just to the one that has been moderated, you have to enter a reason to delete a post (that should actually be visible to the poster, if not let me know, some stuff in vB is not working like expected). I will have a look into what I can show and what not, but only as in showing Mod's Names on the bottom and maybe change the way users get notified about deletion and edits. The 3 new mods (most recent, they are not really new no more) were overambitious in the beginning and needed to turn it down a bit, I actually liked it that they "took care" but normal users didn't like to be moderated at all. I don't know what benefit you see from a moderator-log apart from keeping me busy with setting it up. As any more detail than "Mod# has edited/deleted post in $Section" is invading users privacy, yeah you say moderation is invading privacy, sure but that you gave up on the gates. We are talking about reducing MCeV registration to be anonymous as possible and on the other side you want a tool to track misbehaving users/mods (you could track both with just enough detail in the logs, cross-referencing). Infractions and deleting posts are behind the curtain things between mods and users and should not be made public knowledge.

We are a small group and I usually take sides when it comes to a dispute, that side is Maemo. What I did not like with all this discussion atm is that it feels pretty much like kindergarden, "he took my shovel and despite my name on it I did not find it on my hook, oh it was just put upside down... well did not see that." where the response would be "Next time look closer please."

In the end it breaks down to, you want to know what mods do with your stuff... if a Mod passes by and you do not understand the action, maybe just ask. In this case Jalyst wrote whole freaking sentences giving reason for the edits and still there are complaints, I had a 1 minute look at the thread and understood all changes made and it wasn't even my business. Please be reasonable. You may use the "Report This" button on your own post if you do not know who is to contact for moderation. If it gets out of hand I usually already know about it but you may also use the "Contact Us" form to get a direct line upstairs. Please be so kind and add links when using the form as it does not always parse the right link with it.

So for example, if an edit note is missing on your post, use the Report This function please and ask for an edit note, be nice! I sometimes forget to put one in too, we are all just humans.
