And Toker’s rules of engagement…
1) A moderator must review each posting
2) Moderators can delete postings which do not measure up to board standards
3) Ensue the board remains on-topic. The best message boards stick to one or more specific topics.
4) Minimize flaming.
5) Eject troublemakers and spammers.
The best moderators work with the board members to create an environment which is enjoyable and beneficial to all. A bad moderator can produce the feeling that one is being watched by the Gestapo or secret police, where every word is watched and postings are often deleted without apparent cause or need. To promote and ensure that an environment exists where people can post without threat or fear. And to be sure that disagreements do not flare into all-out warfare.
My rules would be:
1) Eject anyone who doesn't agree with me
2) Eject people who aren't liberals, i.e., anyone from the red states
3) Eject people who don't buy my DAWs
4) Eject anyone who doesn't like my music
5) Eject anyone who doesn't believe in evolution
6) Eject anyone just because I feel like ejecting them
Man - this would be fun but I probably wouldn't have any one left

jhonan - I thought of another rule: eject all Irishmen
No need to add that one - I’m already covered by rule 4 in your list…
This coming from the man who yelled fascist a few months back when the moderator subject came up. I guess this is a joke then? Oh wait, I see smileys. Sacasm, yes, I think this is sarcasm. 
Of course it’s a joke & I hope you got a good laugh from it (coming from me you should have).
