If the word curator is not a good tool, how should we communicate the difference between users who only make posts, and those that get involved in moderation activities. Because the differences in motivation and lack of awareness of those differences in certain places has caused a lot of conflict. | |

And to recognise that the people doing them often have different motivations from users who just ask questions. It's a useful tool to understand the complex ecosystem of the site. | |
