I have not read through this entire thread...frankly, I don't really care that much to spend the time in this topic. However, I will say a couple of things that goes directly to this thread:
1) I find it very interesting that it was Greg who started this thread. It seems to me that out of all of the moderators, he is the most open-minded about how things are run here.
2) Sometimes the strongest word or action from a moderator can be silence. This is an observation...but a lot of the bickering that goes on about moderation on AZ stems from the words of the moderators themselves. The moderators of this or any other forum can choose to make the decisions they want to...but then to go back and entice and encourage more debate or arguing on a topic is just silly and counterproductive.
Some moderators just need to know when to be silent. Dont' put yourselves back into the fray if you don't need to be.
