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).
As already said, this sounds really complicated. Coming from an IRC and vBB admin background, I'll suggest moderation using the reactive approach instead of a automated process.
Not really. The perl script was written, um, around 1993 or '94, and it was based on one from talk.lang.russian? something like that. <snip>
