Modding methods should always be under review I've found and modding rights (modding ability) should be a privilege not a right (modding is not supported under the Constitution of the United States) ;)
VERY good points - and, as more members join a site, it becomes harder and harder to determine who is a person who actually wants to post, and who is just here to cause trouble (Hawk fans, etc. - hence, your Jekyll and Hyde analogy). The mods themselves all have different methods, too (I'm pretty liberal, for example), so you really do have to keep adapting to the situation!
