Well put. Sure there are times when mods have been known to overstep their mission or flatly abuse their power. But I have rarely seen that on JF. The one mod that comes to mind was reeled in by peers. And whenever a mod tends to come across a bit harsh, its usually after quietly seething in the background for a while and mutliple attempts to gently prod posters in a new direction has failed miserably.
As Salvanas pointed out, there is responsibility that comes with one's own actions. If you push the limits too far, you should expect the limits to come flying back in your face and sting a bit.
