I mean this dude has weasled out of everyhing before hand and it doesn't help when you have every secretary of state and vice president from now back to 2001 having uncontrolled documents discovered in some form.
I just keep seeing the headlines and thinking the press is like We got him this time and once again the turd is going to slip away because they've allowed too many others to do the same thing without the same results.

Comment on Thoughts on making Tildes groups more independent in ~tildes.official
Arimer LinkI'm fine with showing everythign to everyone and having them filte rout what they dont' want. I'm also fine with having them filter IN what they do want.

The issue that I have with making groups more independent is how do you fight hte power mod or just poor moderation problems that reddit had. It seems like it would just turn into a power grab of those that feel that need to control. I guess i'm really fine with any decision made as long as we don't repeat a lot of the issues reddit had with its moderator system.
