Oh, that post opens an old can of worms!

Rules are not more lenient for mods than they are for regular members. Thinking that they are causes regular members to feel they're being treated unfairly and that the board is elitist - which would be true if that were the case. Mods have abilities which regular members don't have, but those abilities are meant to be used to enforce the rules, not break them.

That said, we weren't having much activity at that time and no one complained, so I guess it doesn't matter as long as it was just that once. If you want to have real-time chat threads on the forums - which I still think are not the best medium for them, but it's your choice - we could try putting something in the title so that people who look at those threads know what they're getting into. Maybe we could include that in the rules. What do you think?
