However, I think that's evident to everybody that there was only good faith involved here. Finally, we have a meta question on moderator's conflict of interests. 3 out of 4 mods are top 5 users on the site, so that's why we can get involved in this more often that one thinks. | |

I did this once on TeX.SE where I'm a moderator. This way there is a second opinion and some community control, in form of a second moderator. | |

Fabian has said "Preferably, post a meta-question here, or else email the Stack Exchange Team." Based on your response, sounds like the former is ideal. | |
| Apr 10, 2012 at 7:43 | comment | added | ipavlic | Thank you. No, I don't want to complain to the Stack Exchange. I might be in error and would like to hear the opinions of other users to correct me. | |
