TODOs

1. CSS
2. Create mod takes null input??
3. Check status for items not found, should be 404 but getting 5xx
4. "All new posts flagged" mode (require approval for new posts)
5. Tests for mod-only user?
6. Check input validation

Crazy future ideas

(Lord knows there's TODOs I could be working on...)

1. Is remark_tally counting hidden remarks? Tried to add a WHERE NOT hidden_status but that returns null, probably need a different JOIN which may not be worth the trouble/processing
2. Implement tripcodes (moving this down in priority due to complexity...)
3. Return a text response instead of HTML if a .txt extension is requested (JSON?)
4. Post thread via SMS (twil.io??)
5. Option to remark without bumping?
