From time to time, the issue comes up.

The standard here is professional demeanor. For what professional demeanor is, see:

Unprofessional demeanor will get removed at the forum staff's sole discretion on a case by case basis, as well as replies to it.

For unprofessional demeanor, I recommend reddit.

What about self moderation? If I make an unprofessional comment and want to delete it? Will this be allowed now? I guess it's more of a feature request.

The lack of an edit feature has been brought up before and it was said that it doesn't exist because the forum is combined with an email mailing list.

The authoratative database is an NNTP server. The mailing list is an interface to that, and so is the forum (though it maintains its own copy of the DB).

Are you saying the forum could have an edit feature?

You know it's outdated when you click a link and it loads immediately. Where's the Javascript? Where are the features that I never use? Where's the electron app?
