I have a rather strong opinion on this...
Spend some time over on Slate -- the moderating Nazis sucked the life out of that place. Moderating RUINED that forum, it used to be interesting, good people, fun, and enjoyable place, but the fun-sucking, arrogant moderators just killed it. I haven't been back there for a while, so it may have either improved, or just fellinto the ocean, I frankly stopped caring, over moderation is a bad thing.
With the right people, boards can moderate themselves, when baiters show up, and those are the ones who cause the most trouble, spouting garbage, if their posts get ignored, then eventually, the baiter will move on elsewhere, or they get the message pretty quick and settle down and join in.
