It just feels to me that things are slowly changing and probably for the better. Just that they're doing it in the same manner they did before. Behind the scenes how ever they want with little to no structure for the public to see.
Are you the authority on forum moderation here? Do you want me to PM you every time I see something on the forums I think needs to be moved / moderated and make sure I get your buy off before I do anything about it? Thats not how this works, but if thats what you want you may want to start up your own community, or step up and volunteer here and actually try to help rather than moan.

I volunteered here because I got tired of the porn / hate speech / racial slurs spewed all over this forum for the last 6 years I've been here, so I volunteered and stepped up to do something about it. I didn't complain about it endlessly in RnF every single time I saw something I thought needed attention, instead I decided to be an adult and take action. The existing staff agreed with what I wanted to do, and here I am. The leadership here decided they wanted to take moderation a step further post Daybreak agreement, and I for one welcome the changes am happy to support it. Apparently the vocal minority does not though, but the majority do.

If a post doesnt belong here, we're going to remove it. Period. We don't need public opinion / approval to do so. We want the forums cleaned up. Thats really pretty cut and dry. There is no conspiracy behind it. Now, what about that is "behind the scenes"?

Frankly, others on the staff and myself are pretty tired of the constant moaning and whining about forum moderation (this is Rants and Flames - even I can rant here about your whining [You must be logged in to view images.

Also, moving threads to off topic that are not P99 related is part of these changes, get used to it. Sorry if you disagree.
