If we *really* need a moderator, here's an option: soc.religion.paganism has a robomoderator; on topic posts get autoapproved, obviously off-topic get bounced, and if there's any question, they get randomly bounced to a configurable number of human moderators, allowing for load balancing on the humans (and vacations, sick time, etc).
Well, too much work for what it is worth. I once helped moderating a newsgroup and that is a task I at least won't do again. Still hoping for some common sense :)
