> In my opinion, I feel like the deputies are doing a great job. They have a job that is difficult - difficult because there are so many subjective, hard calls to make, difficult because they are here for their own support as well and are trying to walk a very fine line between "authority" and "poster", and difficult because they often have many friends here themselves and it can be emotionally difficult to sanction people you care about (for me anyway). No, theyre not perfect, but I truly dont think anyone on this board (or elsewhere) could do this job with 100% perfection.

I know it can hurt to feel accused, and I'd like to protect them, too, but at the same time, I think it's important for this community as a whole to be able to discuss its administration openly. So I think I'd like to draw the line close to where Dinah did:

And to limit each of the above to 3 per deputy per poster. 3 objections to actions taken (posted or emailed) + 3 other objections (emailed) = 6 total objections per deputy per poster.
How does that sound?
