MODERATORS
As much as it's distasteful, forums need admins. The bots and nazis habitually take over anywhere that doesn't moderate.
It's necessary. I agree. Admins exist for a reason and serve a purpose. But when you get into a "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?" debate it becomes a topic that needs to be addressed. I don't have enough expertise to give an answer to such an existential question so I'll have to leave it to anyone else to hash it out from here.
