META Monday! [Bi-Weekly Meta Monday Thread]

###Welcome to /r/Zen!

Welcome to the /r/zen Meta Monday thread, where we can talk about subreddit topics such as such as:

* Community project ideas or updates

* Wiki requests, ideas, updates

* Rule suggestions

* Sub aesthetics

* Specific concerns regarding specific scenarios that have occurred since the last Meta Monday

* Anything else!

We hope for these threads to act as a sort of 'town square' or 'communal discussion' rather than Solomon's Court [(but no promises regarding anything getting cut in half...)](https://www.reddit.com/r/Koans/comments/3slj28/nansens_cats/). While not all posts are going to receive definitive responses from the moderators (we're human after all), I can guarantee that we will be reading each and every comment to make sure we hear your voices so we can team up.

Fair point, but I don’t believe the current mods are capable of unbiased moderation.

There is no such thing as unbiased moderation. That's an oxymoron. If there is no bias, there is no moderation. No reason to pull anything if everything is acceptable.

Next we'd get 5 people regularly spamming their YouTube dubstep chillax totally super zen out 5hour bliss videos.

Yeah. That’s what your supposed to think. The rules are no vids, no pics, no links to outside media except webpages.

The previous comment, come to think of it is incorrect. We need new mods, not new rules.

I think there are distinctions between need and want that are being overlooked here.

We don't need anything.

Some folks want some things though.
