Yes, most of the private rooms are there for those individuals who have bought a certain book. It is like a "bonus" for buying the book. The mod room is pretty much as Tri described it, except I don't recall any conversations about anyone's level of intelligence happening there. That would be disrespectful and something Jenna would not permit even from her mods. The number one rule around here: Respect Your Fellow Writers. As a result, problems are rare here and, as you notice, the mod room gets very little use. If we're going to be away for awhile, we also use that room to let the other mods know about it, so they can watch our forums for us while we're away. The Cletus forum, as it happens, also consists mostly of mods. It's almost a redundancy.
