I've been on a lot of boards over the past several years and I must say that I prefer the "user supported" moderation.

I agree, but it wasn't working. The complaints I'm getting these days are not about specific posts but in the quality of posts in general (and always about the past, for example: "for the last 6 months there's been a real increase in the number of redundant and stupid posts").

Comments like that are not targeted at specific topics, so the only way to deal with it is with a policy change.

Thanks for the feedback. Our current approach is by no means the final way of doing things around here ...

Yeah but how can you address "quality of post" issues without making the place a password only site? I don't understand why anyone would gripe about dumb threads. If you don't like a thread, don't read it or don't respond to it. What's so hard about that? Good posts will rise to the top and crappy posts will sink farther and farther down the list.
