What makes the current moderator cohort the ruling class? Why not actually put it to the users themselves, including the moderators?
ETA: I guess I'm saying it shouldn't matter if any current mod vehemently opposes anything if it hasn't been put to the people to decide.

That's a good question, but we have no real official way of determining such things if John isn't around. He has discussed the idea of moderator standards with us before and we have something very very very very very extremely loose there now, but nothing concrete.
The other boards I'm active on on the net are very extremely moderated. I personally would like to see a more comprehensive TOS/Moderator code of standards and behavior put in place. For example, in the past, on the Mod's Corner, I have suggested this as a possible example:

Obviously a lot of that doesn't apply to us as we're not a fanfiction forum or whatever, but it's an idea.
I just don't see any way at this point that this could be accomplished without John around... your idea of the users writing up something is fascinating but I'm not sure how in practice that would work.
