Secondly it puts Steve in the difficult position of having to make a decision about whether a negative complaint has merit.Nope it wont work.Anyway I think the current system is adequate given the nature of the task.After all we are only voting for moderators and if they prove unsatisfactory we can always stage a coup d'etat and put in people I like (only kidding!)
