The Question and Answer Board

[downriver]

YOU ARE 100% CORRECT.

I know of one such board that is so one sided, it is ridiculous and this is a great proposal.

"I find that more often than not, if a moderator, (as most seem to be) are 'pro' company (IRP or not), then 'pro' poster's comments/posts are given to the least stringent interpretation of the TOU, while the 'con' poster is immediately and forthwith dealt a strict interpretation of TOU. The opposite could be said if the moderator was considered 'con' although that scenario I suspect, isn't prevalent.

I find this to be endemic, and a good reason for mandatory moderator rotation, preferably by someone who's not a stock holder in the company. A new moderator could be assigned every 30 days or so, taken from a random sampling pool of willing I-Hub users. I suspect I-hub would have no shortage of volunteers. This policy may only need to be used for boards with a certain threshold of posts per day, or it could be implemented systemically."
