Do moderators, staff members, etc. with full access to the msgboard's functionality have full visibility into each others' actions?
I'm interested whether, once deleted, the "offending" messages - and thus the basis of decisions - remain somehow attainable to you all or is it more of a trust based system? Do you get a full accounting, even, of what has happened or have some of the discarded messages, for all intents and purposes, never occurred and are wholly unrecoverable to you as well unless someone had the good sense to inquire about it? If you are disagreed, how is that adjudicated? Note that I don't intend to pry into processes that you for some reason have deemed better to be kept private, but these questions do crop up sometimes.
It seems, at least, that posts - or even whole discussions - can disappear without so much as an attribution. Sometimes, sometimes it would perhaps benefit the exchanges if an option to edit posts existed; I don't mean vacuous throwaway lines (which fairly commonly litter the most surprising subjects and rarely seem to prompt action - just recently a 6th gen fighter development discussion somehow featured multiple general recollections about fmr. president Carter and I had half a mind to propose that the "Habitat for Humanity" housing project is in fact a black program cover for said fighter) but posts that do contain resources perhaps should have some recourse.
If this is unrealistic in terms of attention and resources, that is of course understandable. It just goes into what kinds of precautions, for instance, members should take with local storage etc.
Thank you.
