Interestingly, this is more or less an experiment.  Most people aren't destructive, despite what others may think.  And for those who like to cause chaos, it's typically only due to the fact that power hasn't been given to them.  Once they have power, causing chaos is really no longer that fun.

I'm amused at decisions on other sites for example - they tend to have long debates over whether people should be modded or not.  Yes, for larger and more serious sites, you probably don't want a high percentage of mods, but some arguments used in those debates really make me lol.  This effectively shows that making almost anyone a moderator is not necessarily detrimental to the site.

Although it may seem unfair that people got auto-modded as the site started, it's a truth among most forums.  After all, they survived with and helped bring the site up to what it is now.
Since most people seem to like the current number, I'll keep it as it is.  Regardless, I may play around with people's statuses for the lulz ;)

lol @ severe shortage of mods.
