No more moderation?

> I am not a moderator so I cannot say with any authority what amount of crazy anonymous posts do show up and get moderated out, but I've not seen any debate on that so am expecting the incidence to be fairly low.

"Fairly low" is an overstatement, actually. Astoundingly low is closer to the truth, and i don't believe that anonymous is in the majority there (or not a strong majority). Outright spam attempts, while also surprisingly rare, are almost invariably from named accounts (which get promptly deleted). Same on the Fossil forum, except that that one gets more spam attempts than this forum, for whatever reason (mostly in Vietnamese, strangely enough). In both forums they simply don't survive manual moderation (with one exceedingly sneaky exception which very briefly made it through). In that regard the forum software, initially prompted by the ever-increasing spam problems on the mailing lists, has been an unqualified success.
