I have restored this post. If you are the poster who has posted TONS of posts about malmo please stop doing that in other threads.
I have told the malmo not to remove ANY posts in this thread. (that doesn't mean others can't)
I will try and adjust 1 by 1:
That is NOT what a moderator should be doing. Moderators should not be using their power to suppress views the disagree with. If someone is posting possibly hundreds of posts and hijacking threads to talk about a moderator I don't have a problem with those being deleted. If you have a problem with a particular thread deleted feel free to email me
wejo@letsrun.com. We've been doing a "Deleted Thread of the week" on our podcast and will keep evaluating the threads deleted.
Everyone who works at the site can moderate. There are others like malmo who can moderate as well, but you would not know them. Currently only people who work at the site can ban people (ie malmo can not ban someone he can only delete posts).
I wouldn't characterize that as a personal attack but can see why that should be deleted. I
Malmo's confessed to doping before LetsRun.com even started and I think we need more past people who doped to come forward. His confession is here:
https://bit.ly/2NKyZmtI don't think that doping and admitting it should prevent him from moderating. Moderating is a thankless job and why I don't always agree with his moderating decisions he does a good job of removing a lot of the crap on Letsrun. We will try and ensure he does not overstep his bounds.
Once again this should not be happening. I know there was/is? a malmo jamin training thread that people were hijacking so it stuff got removed from that I can see it as collateral damage but we are reiterating with our moderators what their duties are.
