What exactly do you think a Moderators job on this site should be?

To prevent conversations from getting out of hand? To stop people from fighting?

I ask this because of two situations I have come across here
1 I have seen mods delete any conversation that has to do with drugs of any kind, their reason is "because some people thing it is dangerous" while you can talk about guns all you want too ( I guess they are not dangerous) I was under the impression this site was against censorship of any kind, if so then why do they do it?

2 If the Mods have a job here and I am wrong in my understanding of what that job is, what exactly is it? I ask this because I come on here now and I see 10 threads in a week about the EXACT same thing and they never get modded.

That made me think.
Why would they do this where there is very little advertising on this site?( a pop up once in a while)
So I started searching for how this site is funded and I have come across numerous articles that claim this site is run by one Government agency or another with people posting trace routes back to the supposed Government servers ( I have traced and whoised and if they were in fact one time using something obvious they are not now, they use an anonymous host)

Then I look on the Man pages for the site and see them claiming to have secured "funding" but with no reference as to where it comes from. Where does it come from?
Just be glad you don't have to resort to GLP.

I see articles on here all the time about how to build your own PVC guns. That is not legal in all states so are you telling me this site is run by federal law?
I have been coming here for many years, 9-10, somewhere around there. I had another user name that I have long forgot, connected to a IP I changed many years ago.

Thank you, I appreciate you taking time to answer me. Some of your information was very helpful, some of it I think was just guessing and I think a point or two may have been just BS but I do than you for the response
What I was referencing was a trace that lead back to quantico va but I do not want to post links. As I said I am seeking information not looking to start problems and the best way I think I can do that with a touchy subject like this is not post links.
