I personally don't have a problem with light banta as long as it doesn't get in the way of the thread for example I have seen people in the past post a question only to have a load of off topic banta posted directly afterwards.
I guess we just need to think about what were posting and if the banta really is only between two forum members i.e. a conversation then it is more appropriate to send them an instant message.
But I agree I personally don't want it mega serious we want it to be a fun place for example a picture that is a humurous interpretation of the theme is always fun to see and to be honest can demonstrate a bit of thinking outside the box.
With regards to moderators, donereo is the only one I know of that frequents the competition threads. I have emailed various people in the past to offer my services as a moderator but they have never replied. I am happy to do that and it would be useful when I do the poll which I do most weeks to be able to correct or delete it if I make a complete pigs ear of it.
Just another point whilst I am here is that there seems to be some weeks that go by where people don't leave ups and downs, part of the point of this whole comp thing is that people get at least two crits on there images, some people don't feel qualified but that doesn't stop them from saying what they liked or didn't like about a photo constructively.
