Except there needs to be a system of checks against the mods, because as of right now, there is not one on reddit, and that's one of the major problems with reddit. The community is forced to be accountable to the mods, but the mods aren't accountable to the community.

A group of renegade mods can worm their way into a community, completely blow it up or change it totally, driving out or marginalizing all of the original members of said community. Look at places like subredditdrama, creepyPMs, or offmychest for pretty classic examples.
