Influencing Mod Decisions [Lock Requested]

[Arrietty]

I think non-forum staff members should definitely be able to influence forum policies like normal members.

HOWEVER

The absolute most important thing with policies is what is being proposed, rather than who is is proposing it. I'd rather take good policy proposals from an ordinary member than bad policy proposals from the moderation/administration. You have to think about what is rational and will be healthy for the forum and community long-term.

This is actually a pretty good mindset. I agree wholeheartedly.
