Maybe the lesson here is that when feel you have to begin a post with an apology, maybe you should wait a day or two before sending it out to the world for all eternity? There was no harm done, obviously, but by using this thread to complain about confusion on the website I managed to create more confusion.
Your post was diplomatic and appropriate. I don't see that it should have created any confusion. I think you may have opened your post with an apology because it's difficult to get certain things across without offended someone, and my guess is you didn't want that to happen.
It is true that there is little moderation these days. I think they are shorthanded since Jade left. I know that a large part of the moderation process is done behind the scenes getting rid of spam and the like, so they may be too busy just taking care of that.
