On many sites I've been on the moderators have always been hidden and observing, justice was presented in the form that if a moderator didn't like you, you probably got banned. It's nice to know that on this website we can communicate with a moderator so freely and be able to spread our our own opinions about how punishments and rewards should be distributed.
One thing that has surprised me is that Andy the moderator frequently takes part in debating and arguing, giving the impression that he is in fact equal to the rest of us. Unlike administrators and moderators from other websites he doesn't constantly threaten people with possible banishment.
