I think the user-reporting method is the appropriate one here

and Ben has taken stuff down in the past, though he has an appropriately light touch on it.

Belt and braces, might want to update T+Cs. If a small panel of frequent readers would be helpful to keep an eye I'm happy to volunteer some time each month as part of a team, though Ben may not want to go that route. Procedure would simply be email/WhatsApp message to Ben and it would need to be a post that was clearly a risk not just someone being an arsehole.

If AI moderation tools are the preferred route instead there would be a cost, we might all need to chip in a little through Patreon/similar and again I'm up for doing that if it's relevant/helpful.

I think this is a low risk thing for the Wrath honestly. Posting streams does NOT seem covered and that's the only real exposure there's been historically.

I'd hope we can all agree that any moderation MUST be very light touch or the spirit of the place will be lost.
