A lot of people are directing their complaint/requests, etc. at Theymos. Does he own the forum? Also, I saw that Tysat had the title of staff, is he an employee? Curious about the goings-on in the forums.
Who owns it?
Depends on your definition of ownership. Different resources are controlled by different people. Private Internet Access has ultimate control of the server. Sirius owns the domain. A lot of the money is managed in accordance with the Treasury Agreements, which defines a somewhat more complex organizational structure, though these agreements don't rule the entire forum. I coordinate it all, but I have no ultimate, binding authority over anything except the bitcoins that I hold (and I'd like to reduce this). No one person can permanently shut down the forum.
As for the 'Staff' rank, all Moderators' posts (except Global Moderators' posts) have this rank when they post outside the sections they moderate in.
