		I don't know if shrapnel is open to community suggestions. Perhaps that can be done. (Not that I know of any that would be good enough, and impartial enough to do it).

 I agree that it's tough to find the right people. Perhaps an Abysian-style llamabred program to develop new mods is called for?

		Not to sound pessimistic but, first you'd have to find someone who should be able to do the job as it should be done. Someone trustworthy, objective, someone the community likes. Needless to say there aren't too many people like that left. Next you need to persuade that member to actually take on the moderator duties. I don't think that will be easy to do with all that happened so far. A lot of people, especially vets and long time members carry grudges against Shrapnel. And last, you need to find someone who the Shrapnel staff will actually be willing to have as a moderator here, which probably eliminates all of the people here. 
So I don't really see this happening. Though I hope I'm wrong! 
 
I just think this all happened about two-three years too late to make any difference.

 Of course not. Foulspawn are quantity. Quantity over quality.

 As Patton said, Quantity has a quality all of its own.
