Actually, I did think my last sentence was somewhat relevant:
Quote:
I could only foresee that some angst would be created if the Moderators got involved on a daily basis in cautioning certain members on how they should be participating in the User Showcase.

Nevertheless, I understand the issue, and this is not the first time exactly this topic has been raised.


Oh, I know it's not the first time...I did a little digging before posting.
Your last sentence brought a question to mind immediately:
Why do folk assume that moderation will quickly devolve into daily, public, punative intervention?

All good is assumed for the "let the market decide" version but a hint of regulation seems to trigger a Beverly Hillbillies "Revenuer" response in many folk. That show seems, amusingly, quite contemporary given the SovCit movement.
