Comment by Purpose: I’ll do it on three conditions:

1) Extropia or someone equally as qualified is the other mod.
2) Any ruling by one mod is voided in the event the other mod(s) disagrees (i.e. either mod can void the others actions, although obviously the “Editor” would have the ultimate final say if it came to that).
3) Being a mod does not require the moderator to behave in a particular manner, i.e. as long as the mod themselves follow the rules they can be themselves and participate in the forum.
