Frankly, I think that's part of the problem. I think that a reasonable person (reasonable under my definition) would see that certain posts are deleted / edited and make an effort not to make those types of posts. Others seem to think that "I don't need to worry about what I do -- someone else will take care of it."

and, to be clear, I'm not singling out JR here -- there are more than one other poster who springs to the front of my mind when making this post.

I have recently (over the past couple of months or so) began to be more active in moderating the baseball board. that was due more to personal attacks than to OT posts. I could, if desired by most, be a more active moderator here. Certainly my natural inclination / preference would be to have fewer off-topic posts / threads, even if that might mean no new threads at all in a particular day. (There are plenty of other sites I can go to to read mostly stale jokes, for example)
