The site's moderation system needs to change. There's near infinite power to suppress & deny. That's unhackerly in extreme.
There should be some skin in the game for suppressing. If you want to participate in moderating things away, at the very least you should be willing & able to put your name on that act of denying the public.

The site's moderation isn't going to change because it's in no one's best interest except a bunch of us posters who don't bring in any money.
just drop the flagging by users -- moderators can flag, but not users
