Default idea about resolving disputes

I won't be pressing for this. Just want to see what people think. Here's my deleted post from the assani thread.

What I'm wondering is if there isn't a problem with the structure of how situations are resolved. Stuff like this thing with assani really isn't a forum specific issue, yet that's the only way we're organized to deal with it. Groups of mods disagree with each other on certain incidents and overall ideas. Often a red will then have to pick a side. When it's about anything that spreads over more than one forum the admins are the only ones currently recognized as being able to decide. Shouldn't there be something sort of in between to keep the right balance?

Mat's already mentioned super mods in the other thread, but that's separate and not what I'm thinking here. What if instead of just picking sides we had an agreed upon way to decide a dispute with votes? You know, like the supreme court! It could be mod reps for the different types of forums on 2+2, possibly including a regular member or two.

ryan,

this sounds super stupid. the reason there's a difference between mods and admins. i think that having a system where when it comes down to it, the admins make the decisions is fine. the mods should present their cases, and should hopefully have their input weighed by the admins, but having the admins make the real decision is pretty important, imo.

My problem with that is it creates animosity. It's often just people yelling at each other rather than deciding something or working it out, which is what it should be about.

I agree it does sound stupid. But I figure I'm willing to look a little silly on the chance it's a good idea.

Oh, and the admins would obviously still have their power. I'm just talking about sort of an... extra branch? Chances are if you don't like my idea you hate America. There... I said it.

Reasons? This is an extension of the other discussion in that I'm looking for ways to make things at least a bit more civil in here.
