Have the mods crack down on racial bashing posts and women bashing posts.

Also, the language seems a bit rough.
There's got to be young kids on these forums and seeing people type stuff like sh!t and f_ck is unacceptable and doesn't make atot look very friendly.
And it only encourages the use of bad language.

I agree. And cursing in thread titles really lowers the tone and appearance of this place.

Combined with non-anonymous posting, FTW! Your non-optional profile MUST contain your full name, your real age, one up to date photo, and your home and work address and phone number.

People would be held responsible for their hate and their stupidity. We would hardly have to moderate these forums ever again!

AnandTech Modanonymouserator (or so he/she claims)

Excellent. I've always wondered why the mods here are anonymous. (Although, if you've been here for a long time, you get a pretty good sense of who they are.) It's my opinion, and probably that of many people, that the mods on many forums are respected. And, why wouldn't someone respect someone who does so much work for no pay?

As regular posters, all but one of those I suspect are mods have earned my utmost respect... I don't see why they stay anonymous.

Why bother making a list in FI?

You make a list of "problems"?

You make the list, MODs lock the thread and contest those arn't their problems and link to Fusetalk's "comments" page.

Things change when Zuni wants them to, not when they need to.

More mod quotes!

(well...more explanations on things like locks/bans (or maybe I just like hearing what they have to say))
