I've been through this on some other boards. The ones that are truly free speech to the point of zero moderation never advertise it as such. The ones that do inevitably get overwhelmed with bitches who carry arguments much further than they otherwise would in an effort to test the limits.
I prefer zero moderation, but I have an unusually high threshold. And I read fucked up books about evolutionary psychology which make it seem likely that Hindu outcasts, Greek ostracism, and Puritan witch burnings for failing crops and dead babies is part of any healthy society.
What I would guess will happen here after the inevitable event of Tony + Jeff getting irritated is the current mods will either be given supreme banning power (or judgment, since they kind of have that already) or they'll just close it down.
