 * Why don't we just put our trust in cmods?

Because we don't have enough active cmods, plain and simple. After the "restructuring" we lost practically all of them.


 * Why don't we just get more cmods?

As I say in chat all the time, nominate yourself or someone you think can handle the rights at League of Legends Wiki:Requests for Permissions. Personally, to be perfectly honest, I don't think practically any of the users I see on chat regularly would make good cmods, I mean I don't even think some of our current cmods make trustworthy cmods (Kitty's always away or too passive, Blood showed her problems with banning scary earlier for no reason other than he was annoying and then slapped a bullshit excuse like "harassment" on it). It's the same issue that we have with mods, we could use more but there just aren't really any good picks at the moment. I'll have to disagree with this, Neon, if I may be forgiven for doing so.

I do believe that we have a sufficient number of cmods at the moment (except maybe a very certain timeline which would techincally be mine, but since I'm nocturnal I'm hardly ever awake at that time so I wouldn't rightly know) - I mean, at times there's up to four of them online at the same time and with the help of your newly added options, they're a mere ping away from doing their duty. Additionally, if StealthTeh would always be present, that alone would serve to have safety measure against inappropriate behavior in the chat. I mean, for all we know, he might be a paranoid weirdo, reading our every line.

"Personally, to be perfectly honest, I don't think practically any of the users I see on chat regularly would make good cmods <...>"

As I have said a number of times, we don't need cmods to be an ass to each other, seeing how most of the "chat dwellers" know one another well enough and therefore seldom have any ill intent against other users. And as for cases of obvious trolling/harassment, any of our current cmods are competent enough to take appropriate measures (I mean, it's easy).

Lastly, I have to come to Blood's defense. The individual known as "Scarystorier" was an all-around ass with no other intention than to keep himself entertained at the expense of others. I do recall him commenting on how he's gonna tread lightly around the rules, implying that he's gonna do everything within their boundaries to piss others off. I mean, what jackoff pings the whole chat for absolutely no other reason other than to attract attention? That consitutes as harassment and it's been done a multitude of times.
