Moderators role

Oh, absolutely. But Simon Joinson's accusation in this thread that people only complain to the Admins when they are the one being moderated is (a) not true, and (b) not the point, since how else do we respond to unfair, heavy-handed or just plain shoddy moderation?

Unfortunately, all those Mods who do a very good job tend to do so silently and invisibly. It's the archetypal "thankless task". Let's redress the balance a bit by saying thank you to all of them.
