Don't believe everything you think.
I'd like to say something....
One thing everyone has to remember, mods are human too. It's not easy, to "police" the forums, and remain nuetral or freindly with everyone.
That being said, yes, the mods do need to be held to a higher standard. We as admins are responsible for making sure that the moderators on this site don't overstep their bounds or get too emotionally involved in issues that may arise. We have ways of recording what each and every moderator does and we review many decisions daily. This is the quality control we have in place and we have had in place for many years now. I don't think, at this time, that we need to install a system that publicly draws our moderators into controversy and undermines their authority.
Anyone is free to contact any of the Admins of this site, at any time, if they have a concern with any moderators or their actions. Most often the problem can be solved with just a little communication. We WILL take all compaints into consideration and we WILL discuss with each other, and probably the rest of the staff in most cases, each and every problem.
This site has a very high approval rating with our members so, we feel we are doing something right and we will continue to do our humanly best to keep the standards or moderating that we have and at the same time we will always strive to make each member feel like they are treated with respect and are welcomed on this site. As long as they, treat the staff with the same respect.
Much like you the members wouldn't want your mistakes discussed in public, the moderators deserve the same privacy.
