The very fact that this thread even exists means that Josh is obviously looking for moderators, therefore like it or not folks, there are going to be mods here. Personally I feel that the whole "freedom of speech" defense is a really poor argument. It goes both ways. Sure you may have moderators that abuse their power and use it in the wrong way, but at the same time, you can also have those who abuse their freedom of speech. This is a public message board, and if we want to keep such a friendly environment, then we can't have people abusing that privilege either. I don't want to start a big debate here, and those of you who may disagree with my views are welcome to, but I just felt I had to voice my opinion on the subject.</blockquote>
