I'll put this in my list of ideas because I personally like this idea as well and I don't see how this could create any more problems (except more clutter, but if we're going to advocate keeping arena, then adding more clutter shouldn't be wholly deniable on that basis either). I think that the distinction between 1x1 mature and not mature is big enough to warrant two different sections in that case, since most people are of the opinion that the clutter isn't that cluttery (might just be my personal opinion then).
It also helps create a more PG13 ish thing. The only question I'd have is would we need to moderate this to ensure that whatever rules we have (lol the rules state you can't use words like lesbian, bisexual or homosexual but it happens all the same) are actually enforced for once, or are we just going to pretend like it's not a thing? Either works for me personally.

Since I don't think a 'tag search' will ever be a thing (who wants to read 300 pages of dead roleplays) I think we can safely add custom tags without it becoming a problem. It'd also allow some dank aesthetics, which I'm always in favor of. :)

Well, the one solution I have implemented myself is that blacklist thing, which deals mostly with people that harass others and are, for a lack of better words, problematic. But I can't really publish it here (that'd be targeted harassment) and I can't put it in the public guild discord. So it's hosted 'publicly' in my 'public' server. It's not an A+ solution but so far it's better than anything we have.
Feels kinda vigilante like though and I'd rather not get into that if we can avoid it.
Besides that, yes a report post function is really needed. If anything it's because it's so easy. I can hit the button, fill in a form and press send. It's easier to do than send a PM to a moderator. It also feels less like I'm snitching like that. I'd definitely click report post more often than I'd bother to go through the hassle of taking screenshots and PMing a moderator because even if nothing happens at least I know I did my part.
I imagine statuses can't be reported (I mean they can by sending a PM) but adding a button there would just be stupid I feel like. But PM's, sure.

It isn't. So far the community has done a lot for RPG. It's a dependence based relationship. Mahz cannot host RPG without community (well he can, but you see why that'd be dumb) and we cannot have RPG without Mahz. We need to work together and for some things like the bigger community projects, his/moderators involvement is definitely a dependency I'd see as a requirement.

Disagree. Failure to satisfy the need for feedback or at the very least a satisfactory outcome of the process is definitely discouraging reporting. It might not be active and intentional but judging from the posts in this thread, people feel as though nothing happens with reports. That is why nobody reports anything if we are to believe the posts in here.

Please quote where you touched upon why you don't want them to also be community coordinators. Cause all I could find in the part where you quoted that specific part of what I said was:
<Snipped quote>
And this seems to infer that former mods have done a lot of things for the discord. IDK how that means that community coordinating isn't something moderators should be involved in. But you are in the GCS. You used to be anyway. You know how active the guild authorities are on there :)

I'm not pushing a narrative just because you are the only one to disagree, isn't disagreeing part of talking with too? Am I not talking with you now? In fact, with numerous people agreeing with me on some points, I'd very much think we are discussing something in this thread in general, not pushing a narrative. I'm not sure who I'd be talking at. Perhaps not you, but that's because I didn't feel like you added anything constructive so far. If you don't want to add anything to the thread anymore then feel free to leave. Nobody is making you stay here. It certainly isn't me. You disagreeing is fine. But please don't say I'm pushing a narrative for speaking my mind.
I'm not even sure we totally disagree on everything. Wanna go deeper than that, PM me about it. Either way, I'm glad people felt free to discuss things, especially concerns. I'm glad the Mods answered, and it didn't take days or weeks for anyone to notice. All good, positive signs.
