How do you know their names, how do you know there are only 2?

One of the problems for me about HN is the secretive nature of moderation.

We know their names because they told us: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7493856 (pg leaves dang in charge of moderation) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12073675 (dang introduces sctb)

Both those posts mention them already being involved in moderation before officially being declared moderators; you can do that too if you want! Just write email to hn@ycombinator.com if you see anything that you believe requires moderator intervention and they'll consider it.
