Trying to keep the line between still being able to offer the frank assessments and such that oprano is known for while still being able to attract new webamsters and a "carebear" environment where frank exchanges of ideas and such is taken away might be a hard dance to do with such a set-up. Just something to think on.

Valid point.. The moderators would be held to a higher standard. There would be two ways to get in trouble around here.. create an unfriendly environment and abuse admin power. Think of the moderator access as a very large gun. When the trigger has been pulled you had better have a good reason to have done it. Do I expect people to abuse it? Absolutely! Do I think they could make this place worse than what we see it from time to time? NO.

I would rather this place self regulate.
