The reason this thread got bumped is that there was a spam post sent to this thread.
That should not bump it, but it did. Add it to the list of items to be fixed on the new CR.
At least we are no longer going backwards in time as we used to.
See if your posts are visible even when not logged in.
Mod 29,
I very strongly agree.
Maybe the Mods can put an end to this

I moderated today.
That is okay. I actually found and bumped that thread before I noticed your post.
There apparently was a Moderator-25 in the past, but the account was deleted, so all posts come up without a name.
This is a brand new Moderator-25.
Welcome!
Mod-25, where are you?
Theprof1, kindly refrain from using all caps. Thank you.
There is a gag order for seven days on any and all other information pertaining to the investigation.
My email address is not public information. You can try to contact me through a post.
The Editor is in charge of the whole site, and to my knowledge, simply does not have time to respond to every email.
1. True. I still feel strongly that this discussion doesn’t belong in a public forum, and I say so from experience.
2. You are entitled to feel that we have allowed posts which should not have been allowed. That does not change whether or not this discussion should take place on a public forum. It should not.
More than one moderator can work at a time, and we moderate posts as we see them.
We don’t usually moderate by thread, but by post as they come in. It might be better to moderate by thread to avoid the issues you mentioned, but due to technical issues that is very difficult.
I believe the other moderator meant that different moderators approve or delete (or comment on) different posts, and therefore no assumptions should be made about the bias of the moderator(s). We may just have a slightly different threshold for approval on the questionable posts.
My number has nothing to do with seniority. It was chosen by the Editor.
Someone whose emunah is shaky or not intellectually well formed can be challenged by such a discussion. This is not theory, this occurred here.
It is not an aside. That is the reason this type of discussion should not be on a forum accessible to anyone.
That discussion, while valuable, is not for a public forum, because some may be harmed.
Lilmod ulelamaid, to address some of your questions:
Aside from which device a moderator is using, it is also more time consuming to edit than to simply delete or approve. Sometimes we have time to edit/comment, but sometimes we don’t.
Everything is read before being approved.
Sometimes posts are too long to read and are simply skipped due to lack of time. When this happens, a moderator may decide to moderate using a screen which shows more recent posts first, so an older, even short post, may temporarily get lost in the shuffle.
Word game threads can be tricky to moderate because it is better to delete some answers which were posted after others, but we don’t always have time to view the whole thread.
I hope this helps.
(I am not the moderator who commented earlier.)
The name of the song is “?? ?? ??”. The OP had written some other words incorrectly, so I figured I would just tell him all of the words from the song, which include the title.
Lishmoa is capitalized, and lishmo’a has an apostrophe.
That’s not my email address.
Nowadays, we open our own accounts at whichever provider we choose.
My advice is to pick one username and stick to it.
I do not think it is her.
Abba_S: You are conflating the laws of Motzi Shem in Shmirah Halashon with the Pesukim which refer to a husband leveling specific false charges against his wife.
We do not need two threads. You may continue here:

Mazel Tov!
Hatzlocha to you.
It was deleted. We do not allow exchange of contact information. This is also likely not the place to receive the answers to your questions.
What took you so long?
You are very welcome.
Why, how old do I look?
Yes, I was on then, and had the same thoughts.
We get paid 20% more for deleted posts than for approved posts.
How can I help you?
Meno, it usually means there is a space in the username.
Mammele, we cannot change how a username appears for an individual post. Any change would affect every post made under that account.
If someone wanted to make a new account for the sole purpose of maintaining anonymity, we would allow that.
I wouldn’t be too concerned about being called a troll by sparkly.
Do mean something like this?
Now I am just waiting for DaMoshe and Joseph to chime in so I can close it.
We do not allow exchange of contact information.
Refuah Sheleimah.
It ain’t over (any more) ’til it’s over (again).
If anyone wants to post a name for Tehillim without using their regular username, they can post: “Can a moderator please post:”, with the name, and I (or another moderator) will bl”n delete that post and then post the name.
