I thinks it's actually simple, there's two kinds of posts that (possibly) need
moderation:

a) obvious ones: flaming direct personal attacks, trolls, etc...

I believe a moderator should just go ahead with it and delete such a post, if he
feels sure enough it is ok to do so. This relieves the burden on other
moderators and makes for quicker responses in urgent cases where they're hard to
reach. Not much need for cooperation here.

b) arguable ones. In such a case we can ask each others opinion and see if
there's a concensus whether it warrants deletion or a warning in the forum. I
would personally prefer a veto system here, i.e. if one moderator thinks it's ok
then it's left at that, but if the other people feel another system is better
I'm fine with it as long as it's reasonable.

If the other moderators agree to it and the members ask for it, why not?
