OK that is more technical talk which is going off-topic from original vision for this topic.

Was hoping for more philosophical discussion about core moderation methodology. Would say there seems to be two main extremes of polarity for how moderators can operate, from hyper-vigilance to overly stand-offish.

The correct way to practice good moderation would say is to walk the path of mediation which balances the opposing polar charges in equality.
