Starting off with a The Who song: They sit in judgement of your wrongs.

Get to know them, probably more than before.
For the team, I and AoV will still be around for assistance, guidance, and suggestions if you want them. You should still set up a chat on your side in the event of outage or communication difficulty.
If you haven't modded before, I've given you full permissions, so take a look around. We can eventually restrict access if you'd prefer so that you focus on your specific areas, like only working on the sidebar.
I get that you don't want to take a blowtorch to things on day 1 but Reddit tier rules against bigotry are not the way to deal with spergs. Rule 16 is so elastic and the previous guy used that to justify selective enforcement. That's not to say I believe the new group will engage in that kind of bad faith moderation but relying on collateral damage from aiming at a target you shouldn't be aiming at isn't the way to go.
Absolutely agreed. I was just playing Devil's advocate, providing the only positive spin I could for R16.
We'll see what the community and mods want to do but, as I said, I'm personally not a fan of R16, and think the rules could be cleaned up and consolidated in general.
