That has not been the experience in the forums where this has been implemented.
I'm sure it takes a little more time for the mods to participate in and moderate those theads than to operate without collaborative feedback. But they get a fantastic return on that investment: posters who have a better understanding of and input to the day-to-day management of the forum they moderate.
