I also would like to briefly address this, just to say that I think it must be an exceptionally difficult balancing act, balancing 1) a desire to encourage contributions from members (who may or may not be moderators) who add lots of value without - at the same time - coddling misbehavior (a dreary, administrative concern, I suppose), along with 2) consistent enforcement of the rules, even when that means the moderators are subjected to disciplinary action, as well.
Personally, I certainly couldn't do it - I just know it - so I find it awesome that people can. ^^ to all who do!
