Are there any moderators around here?

In the last few days lots of threads made are about topics that have already been discussed multiple times.
I'm talking about threads like "What are your experiences with the N900?" or the countless review threads..

These threads should, in my opinion, be merged and pinned

Also, stickies containing FAQs would be very helpful, especially for new users.

So, are there any moderators? Or are they just waiting for everyone to receive their N900 so everyone calms down a bit?

No moderators. We believe anarchy rules.

EDIT: don't believe zerojay. He was dropped as a child. Bounced rather.

I just think it's kind of getting out of hand here

Were I mod here, the first thing I would do is move this thread to the forum where it belongs. It has nothing whatsoever to do with the n900 and belongs in the 'community' forum.

Yes, there are mods. They're kind of busy, though.

Actually, i think there are a couple of 'em, but they're actually from the planet xorg, where they use 60 hours days, and can only do moderating 2 hours/day (their day). So only 2 hours every 60

It's been messy before. Happens every time a new device hits.

We actually do have mods (I'm one for Brainstorm only) and we do what we can. But it will settle down soon if history is an example.

I wouldn't need moderators if this forum software had better features.

My most wanted feature is killing (hiding) of threads. After I have killed a thread I would never see it again in "New posts" or in normal forum view. After killing 90% of active threads this place would much better.

Then the question should not be about moderators, but about feaure enhancements to the forum. There's a Brainstorm area for that, though I will note, Reggie is a busy dude and unless there are others to give a hand in site maintenace and development, requesting new features should be done in light of one's own ability to implement them - that's only fair to Reggie.
