Sorry, but may I have some words on this? Although I understand your point, Kamarin has been lonely and to be honest a bit creepy, but there are still many points that trouble me.


 * ”Moderation is NOT the point of a chat. A bot can easily replace moderation.”

I agree, but moderation DOES contribute to the chatroom. Something doesn't have to be only about its "point". Plus, currently a bot can't replace moderation.


 * "But never actually typing no matter what topic is at hand is foolish and creates a bad aura and image in the chat. It promotes inactivity, it can make people feel at unease, at sadness, and they may feel left out."

Truth be told, what most people would think if they get into a situation like that is simply "what a weirdo" :/. Normally, people will only feel uneasy, sad or left out if it's about THEM and not about other people. Getting into a conversation with Kamarin when she doesn't say anything is a problem with Kamarin, not a problem with you. Plus, she hardly ever goes to chat when there's no one else, so you most likely wouldn't get into an awkward 1-on-1 conversation with her in the chat.

Plus, try to look at this by Kamarin's point of view. To simplify things, I'll try my best to react to this as if I were her (BAD MIMIC ALERT!):

"God my life is utter sh*t god those bastards goddamn no one ever loves me... This is so painful......................... Well, let's go to this site to see what I can do... maybe at least some people there won't be such bastards there... *sigh* What should I do? Should I reply? No, people will think I'm creepy. No. This whole f**king mess has come to this all because of my mechanic attitude! B...but... I can't... god... I can't say anything... Failure in retrieving appropriate answers to conversation at hand... god no... NO!!! I... I.......... I.. I........... *sigh* Well, maybe I should just shut up... Ah, there's someone who spammed there. What a jerk.  I'm already miserable now and yet this... F**k, I'm a chat moderator there, maybe at least I can do something. *blocks spammer* There. Now maybe let's sleep. God why... even now I still can't join a conversation... *cry* Why? Why must I be like this? WHY?!!! *sees this post* WHAT? N...now they are requesting me to be demoted? They... I... they hated me? So they hated me all this time? GOD! I... I don't know what to think anymore I... I.... GAAAAAHHHH! I... what should I.................................................

..........My life is complete."

Anyway, all in all, I personally think a chat moderator's job is to moderate, not just to chat, anyone can chat, not anyone, even a bot (at least currently), can moderate. So, if she does her job well as a moderator, then I'd really like to have her around, as a moderator. A chatroom is a room to chat, yes, that I agree with you, but why would people chat? To relax. To release your inner thoughts naturally. It seems as if you're forcing her to chat, and being forced is never a good way to relax. If she likes to just "stalk" there and does her job, then so be it, unless it REALLY irritates people. You can stand that, I believe? After all, you are not like those childish spammers, so I think perhaps you can be a bit more open to Kamarin, you know she's in a dire state...
