The best part of pouet is the anarchy.

Pouët is pouët. No moderatin (Except by the gloperators when it's really needed.)
Besides, getting new servers is not a reason to put more load on them, and make pouët even slower than it was before.

Nowadays moderation sucks. Look at all those mainstream forums which pretend to be alternative and sub-cultural. Most of the moderators are former kind of unsocialized peoples spending countless hours to do this poor unvalued job for nothing and most of them do so to practice a little bit of power and fame. Because it's hell boring so I don't see the point of becoming a moderator
except to stuff peoples who don't have the spirit of the damn forum. The alternative politicaly correctness should I say.
I still have the memory of this huge and famous french forum which used to be a very free and open minded forum. Back 3/4 years ago, they went completely paranoids with the legal issues and they wanted to breath their spirit in every line posted on their forum. Blind rules. This became a piece of crap with pathetic lamers who kills their time like I do writing this shit. My only goal there now is to probe like a dumbass to collect my bans.

Because it's all about what became the Internet and particulary the forums. A good way of losing your time and bellyaching for nothing. You can trust nothing.

Saving sites like Pouet from this controlled poison by giving some truths to everyone's behavior.

(I am peaceful man by the way)

There's a way for moderation.
There should be moderation, but with a switch whether one wants it or not. Comments could be flagged for moderation. Those who have it on, will not see it.
And who should moderate? Users should be allowed to ask for moderation on a specific thread or even thread messages. Those which collect, let's say, 10 bad points, will be moderated.
