My other pen is a Montblanc.

Perhaps I should have mentioned, that’s Rome burning while the boss fiddles.

Isn't that more of a Star Trek Mr. Spock Lyre? 😜

Did Nero really fiddle while Rome burned?

Are you saying the man in the picture isn’t reallyNero?

You could be saying that Nero burned down the Pantheon.
I am going to poison Eric at the next show.
Maybe a bit harsh.

Dunno. Maybe his heirs would be willing to sell the board to someone who would take care of it.

Here's a thought. The guy who pays the bills to keep this entity in existence seems to be independently wealthy. Although he appears to have some affiliation with the Andersons, it's more ancillary, perhaps even voluntary. He doesn't have a "job," as far as I can tell. People with that sort of freedom typically don't see things as the rest of us do.
I suspect it tickles his funny bone that Jon is so righteously enraged because the guy won't do things the way he would. Continuing comments about him not "taking care" of this entity surely tickle his psyche,
Imagine the power in knowing you could flip a switch and end this whole thing in an instant. I've suggested before that he's playing God. This, I suspect, is just one of his little toys.
Again, just a thought.

No one is required to be here.
If you want "active" moderation, just toodle on over to the other place. It is more than abundant there.

Getting rid of automated spambot accounts is administration, not moderation. I am not, nor have I ever, asked for or desired any moderating of content on this site, outside of dealing with any actual threatening posts. As to going somewhere else, that would assume that the cohort of correspondents would be the same on another forum, and that isn't the case. Many of the people who used to post here that I valued, for their content and their spirit, have given up but they haven't magically reconvened somewhere else.
It is what it is, though.

In the context of a forum such as this one and the other place, I think the distinction between administration and moderation is far more gray than the simple black & white rubric you suggest.
I think a better distinction is site owner vs. those who are managing the day to day operations.
