Also I've NEVER seen a mod edit a post, or warn someone. I'm all for freedom of speech but cussing and swearing and threatening ... why is this allowed ? Why have mods at all then ?
I have seen a couple times where a mod adds big red letters "This is probably a scam, do your research" or some such warning.
I do that fairly often, but usually only in the newbie section. People there are a lot more likely to fall for scams, so I try to warn about anything that looks sketchy (and I believe I'm usually right about them).
