Our team cover the forums and chat as often as possible to reduce abuse, threatening behavior and explicit or other unwelcome conversation. The fact that a moderator is on duty does not mean the forum is guaranteed to be free from abuse.

Our moderators are volunteers who undergo a lengthy training and supervision period after proving themselves as responsible users of our site. All moderators work as a team, and only the very best applicants are accepted. We regularly monitor our moderators to ensure that they are the right people for the role.
