you don't moderate in a heavy-handed manner, Rob, for sure.
In my experience on other boards, once the moderator does start enforcing civility consistently, those who get their primary enjoyment from heckling or getting a rise find somewhere else to play.
Those that are there to contribute learn to self-moderate better. The quality of the conversation increases.
Thanks for watching out.
