They're understaffed and the staff that's still here mentally checked out 2+ years ago. Including admin. They'll intervene when they eventually see something or when something clearly crosses a major line and someone reports it. But in terms of having any active input or desire to moderate the forum? It doesn't really happen. Membership is too low for effective moderation anyway. They can't impose stricter rules without finishing off the forum, they know it, and so here we are.

This is very true.

I use the analogy - they're like some one who lives in squalor. The place is gone too far to clean up but they let it get like this

I've reported actual racism on here and it got met with that member receiving a 2 day ban. That's how seriously racism is taken on here clearly.

It imwont even have been a 2 day ban, it will have been a simple infraction that happened to push them over the ban threshold.
