Why? Because "a certain un-named British member" causes too much trouble for one mod to sort through.
I am shocked that they only added one more mod! It seems that 3 mods on duty, at all times, in 6 hour shifts, might be enough to monitor his ridiculous posting habits. So 3 new mods, every 6 hours, would total 12 mods needed to adequatly cover this forum, in its current state, for one 24 hour period.
Orrrr....they could just finally ban the trouble maker, and 1 mod would be plenty to cover our once peaceful community.
