On key matters, such as mr rs specialist being a mod, would it be possible to have a full and frank discussion/debate as to why he should stay/go as a mod? With the for/against arguement put by both factions as to why they think it should be their way?

I'm only taking this as an example due to so much negativity on te subject that has been shown here bybsome even though the basics of him being a good mod seem to be ignored by some.

If there is an "issue" that the membership can generally debate and have some sort of clarifcatjon by an indipendant as to what would be the best way forward it may at least give users the ability to air any past greviances they wish to clear on said matters.

And the resluts could be made by someone with their reasons as to why the end decision was made in the way it was made.

So, for example, we all moaned that we wanted a split gd for car and non car subjects andnthen it went to the vote and it was voted against so it became reintergrated, and the obvious end was that those who wanted it kept seperate were then much more vocal about it's demise thatn those who had "won". But as a general rule, a big discussion before it was implimented with something like a 6 month trial period say before the matter was reconsidered again may have ended up with a permanent split.
