@Tore: Looks better. Here's how I would have written it in my own perspective of reality in an internet forum. Just my take.
(the .5 ones are just what I added later without wanting to re-number everything)

1. The mod team should be bolstered with additional qualified mods

2. The mod team should NOT be bolstered with additional qualified mods and is fine as-is

2.5 The mod team should be bolstered with whoever most people like, irrelevant of personality or temper

3. The rule against short, nonsense posts should be kept, in a context where a user habitually offers nothing more than short, nonsense posts

4. The rule against short nonsense posts should NOT be kept, and everyone should be allowed to habitually make short, nonsense posts regardless of history or context

4.5 The rule against short nonsense posts should be strictly adhered to, irrelevant of context.

5. The rules should apply equally to all, including moderators, no matter the context

6. The rules should NOT apply equally to all, contingent on context and standard, reasonable judgement

7. General mod policy should be to react to every instance where a rule is broken

8. General mod policy should NOT be to react to every instance where a rule is broken

9. General mod policy should be to judge every potential instance where a rule is broken and make a decision congruent with context

10. For punishment, there should be a general policy to use infractions

11. For punishment, there should NOT be a general policy to use infractions

11.5 For punishment, there should be a graduating approach that begins with a warning, followed by a set number of infractions, followed by a set number of temp bans, followed by a permaban

12. Rules should apply equally to all forums

13. Rules should NOT apply equally to all forums (ex. The Lounge forum less strict or other designated "safe zones")

14. A new moderation policy should have a trial run first (ex. 1 - 2 months)

15. A new moderation policy should NOT have a trial run first and should be implemented immediately

Alternate votes:

16. I don't think anything is wrong, and have no need to vote on individual items

17. I think something is wrong, but my concerns are not listed in the individual items, and I will voice them in my reply to this thread
