Do we need more moderators?

Recently:

  • three top users left this site
  • another top user was suspended (in my opinion, the past behavior of the people involved was not carefully taken into account in this circumstance, as far as I can judge with the little info available)
  • in general, I feel that touchiness and rudeness are growing (a couple of episodes make me think that).

I believe there is a problem.

Now we have only three mods, two of them are European and one North American.

Two of them are English mother tongue and one is German, that is all of them are Anglo-Saxon speakers.

To cover all the time zones, I think we need, at least:

  • an Asian
  • a person from Oceania.

And to better understand misunderstandings created by language barriers, we should also have:

  • an African
  • a South American.

How do the mod elections work? Can we have more than three mods?
