I think they are telling you the answer is simple: It doesn't matter one way or the other.

Admin answered your question twice already. the answer was yes.

she was made an assitant yesterday after she asked me. I didn't know she was part of this new outfit until they posted about it today.

With the deletion review process put in place by admin, why is there an issue? submit every deleted post you have a problem with and admin reviews it. If they find she's abusing deletion power, they will remove her.

If you trusted admin to review deletions before, what is different now?

yes ihub has nothing to do with outside compensation and if she disclosed it then good for her. I doubt she'd tank it with that info out there, unlike people who don't disclose.

Of course it's bogus. Don't expect Dave or Matt to agree with you. Post counts rank supreme.

Janice sent a query to Bob Z, at least he is more rational.

You can have a cesspool with huge post-counts and less info or a quality site, manage intelligently.

"Is it acceptable to IHUB for a moderator to receive outside compensation for a company they moderate?"

Yes. In fact, off the top of my head, I know of at least one really good Moderator who is a promoter for the company of the board he moderates. The board has a lot of dissension and rarely is on the TOS Report and I've seen very, very few deletion review requests for the board.

"So my question stands - thanks for the opinion, but I want a ruling...."

Dave has already replied twice. If you want to hear from someone specific, then I'd suggest a pm or a reply to one of their posts.
