I want to ask a question to the Chicago board moderator, but have no idea how to find out who that person is. Is there a list of moderators somewhere?

...Several years ago there were local board moderators you could PM and ask questions. TER fired all of them. You should use Contact Us and ask your question. Give them a link to the item you have a question about if possible.

Back in the day boards were moderated by volunteer moderators snd each bosrd had a moderator. (Some moderators modrrsted multiple boards st tge same time, and some bosrds had more than one moderster, but you always knew who the board moderators were. Since February of 2012, all boards are moderated by TER staff members. I believe they split the work load, and no specific moderator is consistantly responsible for any particular board.  

i have found that different moderators have different thresholds..a " risque " post might be tolerated by some mods and rejected by others..always follow TER guidelines..
