1) Kashima, Sol is a busy man. However, he is responsible for the forums as well. Never think that you cannot PM him for advice or help with matters here. His availability may be questioned, but his reliability may not.
2) Lee-yoshi (mainly directed at Kashima again) is a neutral-type administrator, indeed; one which you do not see very often. A good one, very good. But, I know that no matter what, he would always stand up for the good of this community - that cannot be questioned.
3) Kashima, I find these little things so difficult to explain to you, and any others such as Anti Hacker. You ask what the point of mods is when the admins still have to keep them in check? O_o; Allow me to paint a picture for you. If the moderators (ie. Myself, decs, mr. shoe, Serpent7, Kefka, Ria, etc.) did not exist here, imagine what kind of a forum we'd be posting in. I'll give you a minute to think.
*hmm...what should I have for lunch?*
Oh, hello. As I was saying, the forums would be utter chaos. This thread would not even be visible as it would be covered up by the months and months of spam. What you must come to realise, is that the admins exist to run the forums. The mods exist to enforce the rules, that is, edit posts when needed (BELIEVE IT OR NOT!), close threads when needed, warn members when needed, among many other responsibilities. The admins don't keep them in check, how silly. The reason in which it would seem that the mods need to be watched is because of your silly accusations. Kefka's been a great moderator until now, why would he suddenly become some maniac who edits posts for no reason? So, you ask why mods exist? Simple answer, bear with me: Because they're required.
