5. It's pretty simple.

You get a private message letting you know there was a post hidden (only certain ones, though), and then you go to a private forum, and with others, you discuss and attempt to reach consensus as to whether the alert warrants removal from DU or not. Some are pretty easy, like spam content or racist assholes who sneak on here. It is a group of about 30 DU'ers, more than a few you have served before, so you can easily learn the ropes.

Give it a try! It can be fun, but I won't lie, usually, it is pretty cut-n-dried and boring...not like in the good ole days!
