@stux This is exactly right. It's what I might call the three stages of moderation. Stage 1: "consensus is the only way, everyone must agree with me". Stage 2: "consensus never works, we need detailed and rigid rules and guidelines". Stage 3: "rigid rules fail due to shades of grey, and consensus lets the most dramatic decide everything, we need to be wise and thoughtful with general guidelines".
