I saw this thread over at the BM main tribe. bm.tribe.net/thread/d022...b744243affd4

I'm not in there except as a lurker... but I thought it was interesting. It is my opinion that the excellent moderatorship of Elaine, Rhino, and Bobzilla has actually resulted in the slow down of that Tribe.

    The real problem is not the moderation of the tribe (IMHO) but the gatekeeping; i.e. you have to meet some unstated standard to get in to the tribe. This goes WAY beyond moderating into choosing who is worthy of being part of the 'community'. It's the farthest thing from radical inclusion. No exclusionary club can create what an inclusive and acceptive society can experience. A canyon of echos will teach you nothing.

      I agree, but unfortunately tribe hasn't created a way for moderators to remove somebody and prevent them from returning... So there has to be an application process for that tribe.
