Originally, the PPMB had a single forum devoted to all topics. As with the Outpost Daria Message Board, threads formed long strings that could take up an entire page. Circa February or March 2000, the Paperpusher created two forums, with one devoted to general topics and the other presumably devoted to "Daria." He also enacted a list of [http://web.archive.org/web/20001206231400/paperpusher.simplenet.com/Message_Board/Message_Board_Policies/message_board_policies.html policies], including 1) no illegal activity, 2) no personal attacks, 3) no antagonistic behavior, 4) no hate posts, 5) no cussing, and 6) rules are subject to change without notice. Paperpusher wanted to maintain a welcome board, but was adamentadamant that he and the moderators have a free hand when things got rough.

Line 31:
Because Chad Page and J had stopped visiting the PPMB, Wild appointed new moderators after taking over the board in 2005: [[Richard Lobinske|RLobinske]] and [[Ranger Thorne]]. [[Quiverwing]] (then nmorgendorffer) soon followed. Steven Galloway was appointed a co-admin, because Wild did not want another situation where the board got out of control and no one was available to delete users. Ranger Thorne and Steven Galloway eventually chose to step down, citing time constraints due to real life, and Wild appointed [[E. A. Smith]] to be the moderator, while making RLobinske her co-admin.
 
In May 2007, Wild granted Quiverwing and E. A. Smith administrator status, marking the first time the PPMB counted on a main staff of administrators only. The change only lasted four weeks, but signaled a new direction for the board as Wild later announced that she would be discontinuing her moderator duties in mid-August. She promoted Quiverwing to administrator and, after E.A. Smith indictatedindicated that he no longer wished to continue, modded [[UU]] and [[Dervish]].
