I recommend Dave Crocker for moderation for trolling.

i'm going to recommend Guy for moderation for use of
inflammatory language and personal attacks.

| unfortunately, there are no spf documents that specify proper usage.  as
of

|

| 
| 
| so,

| improper usage of spf.
| 
| it would make discussion about its role far more productive and precise.
