I don’t see people becoming mods as a power trip or to dish out punishment or for the pleasure of having authority. Maybe it it turns into that a little but I see the mods as doing what they do mainly out of altruism and a genuine desire to help make this site a good, safe place.
I hope its not altruism, and those communitarian dimension personality traits that psychiatric administrators do myersbriggs-like interpretations of our comments to select community leaders
