Hi,
It means people who look at the posts on this board frequently, and who will generally make sure the stuff on here is appropriate. Anything that's spam, pornographic, excessively rude, etc we will simply remove.
That gives John Williams the freedom to go away for a few days and come back to a forum that's free of all this type of thing.
Most forum boards on the Internet are moderated, some will not allow any messages at all on them until a moderator has passed them.
Hope that answers the question!
Charles

And I am sure, that i misspell many words, or perhaps some of the words I use doesn't even exist, or cannot be used in this context. Hope the meaning comes clear anyway.
