Maybe, maybe not.

But moderators can and do play favorites, banning or silencing one voice (of 
whom they disapprove) for the same things that they ignore from another voice 
(of whom they do approve).

Moderators, with the power to ban and to silence, become the owners of the 
project whose communications they moderate. By controlling the flow of 
information in a project, moderators control the status of the members in that 
project, and thereby control the direction of the project.
