Pseudonyms are welcome and I will protect your anonymity and privacy to the best of my ability.
I will happily open this instance up and make it public if someone I trust wants to volunteer to be a full time moderator, but not otherwise.
If you’re thinking about blocking rants.au because these rules don’t explicitly forbid something, please take the time to ask first. Chances are that I will happily add rules if you need me to.
