When does moderation happen?
Moderation is passive and the mods can take action upon their daily usage or when alerted by an internal or external user.
If any issues come up, the mods look at the subject and decide on an action in a timely manner.
Actions include: time-out for specific time period and outright bans.
You are entitled to appeal to a decision once. Good luck.
Privacy :
This comes in after we have details about system settings.
"By using our services you agree that a minimal amount of information about your
connection (IP address) will be kept for debugging and maintenance purposes."
This is a temporal space.
Mods
Mods advise the hardware team to moderate the bot spam troll etc.
