The original mail which announced moderation contains this rule:

I assume "+1s" means statements such as "I agree with doing X".
Any sane procedure of deciding something includes asking the involved people
whether they're for or against it.
If there are dozens of proposals on how to solve a particular technical
problem, how else do you want to decide it than having a vote?
It's very strange that this is not allowed - especially if we consider that
the Bitcoin community is in a state of constant dissent currently.
The effect is likely that you push the actual decision-making to IRC, which
less people have access to (since it's difficult to bear the high traffic),
and thus form some kind of "inner circle" - which makes decisions seem even
more as if they're being dictated.
So please consider allowing people to say whether they agree with something
something or don't.
Other than that, thanks for the good latency of moderation, I guess you're
doing hard work there :)
