-I don't know why mods are leaving, though I have heard escorts talking about trolls abusing them being tolerated.
-No, escorts shouldn't be abused by trolls. That's the point. But for example, me telling Joe to act right in no way constitutes abuse towards an escort.
-Aside from said troll (and trolls now that JD is back), none of us have shown a dislike towards escorts. I'm actually not sure what you are talking about now.
-Are they doing a great job?
Look as I said, this is how unmoderated forums work. People argue and banter. I take this as a positive sign (at least towards the punters, not mods) that everyone is feeling so protective of the site and wants to keep trolls out. That means we care. And to be fair, there's only ONE troll that's been in the limelight lately. Not 2, 3, 4, or 7, ONE. So lets not act like this site has turned into some chaotic shitshow; it hasn't. Finally, I think it's been proven by now that yelling at people to stop yelling at other people doesn't do a damn bit of good, and only adds to the fire. There's a lot of frustration here I think that trolls are protected, reporting posts are useless, and there is an aversion by mods for taking action. True or not, that is the perception.
