I asked for volunteers, I heard from a few of you, and through the highly selective process of approving everyone who included their username (Sorry Ed), I have chosen your new moderators, which I think amount to about half of you.

They will be able to do five things for you:

1. Approve your submissions.
2. Delete your submissions.
3. Approve any pending comments. (I have no idea what makes ID decide to throw some comments in to moderation…)
4. Delete any offensive/spammy comments.
5. Fix your headlines.

In return for their slavish devotion to the cause, moderators will get the following perks:

1. Their names will have a blue background in the comments.
2. Their submissions should automatically post, regardless of IP. If not, they can self approve their own stuff.

So without any further ado, in reverse chronological order, I give you your Oligarchy of Power:

• Close Read
• C_R_Eature
• zippy_w_pinhead
• snowpointsecret
• Shelwood

(Mods: I sent you all a welcome email, with really lame instructions. You should also get an email with your PW to Wonkville. If you don’t get one or both of those, holler.)
