Well, the moderator of [livejournal.com profile] davis_square just put the community on approved-posts-only lockdown after a few people offered criticism of her management style. She also deleted several people's comments, and is presently declaring to be close to deleting the community altogether. I consider this behavior a breach of the social contract inherent in any moderated message board's user/admin relationship, and reason enough to just drop the joint and move on elsewhere.

However, it is a useful and friendly LJ-community -- much (more reliable / less idiotic) than, say, [livejournal.com profile] b0st0n -- and I wouldn't want to lose it, nor see it splinter off into wee fragments. Any suggestions from the crossover portion of my f-list on how to follow up on this?

Update: [livejournal.com profile] daerr just pointed out that [livejournal.com profile] davissquare now seems to exist, created by [livejournal.com profile] komos, whom I don't know. I don't know if this person took part in the meta-discussion on the first community since that all got blown away... any insight?

I stand corrected. Most of the time, I pay so little attention to _any_ of the ads, that whether or not the "You need to cut-tag this" comment shows up has passed me by.
