The moderators don’t exist. Sole moderator Oliver Habryka hasn’t commented on Reddit in 3 years, and is extremely busy with vastly more important things like AI safety, Lighthaven, and the actual LessWrong. Spammers continue indefinitely for months until, presumably, they earn a site-wide ban.
The guy who objects to delegating? I guess he decided that nobody on a forum can handle the responsibility of moderation?

When banning people takes several ten thousand word essays going back and forth, how can you trust that responsibility to lesser mortals?

Habryka is too busy writing long screeds warning people not to vote for random junior politicians to moderate www.lesswrong.com/…/habryka-s-shortform-feed?comm…
