Not only that, but Moderators should provide an example of the type of behaviour other users should emulate, and Moderators should be aware of the fact. If the Moderator status was separate, then Moderators could more easily take down others for bad behaviour, but would not so obviously have a duty to obey those rules themselves.

Also, having Moderators posting in forums in a normal fashion makes it seem friendlier, and often newer members go to Moderators to ask questions.
Exactly.

Hope you understand, SeijiSensei. Why would you think I hate moderators here or had a bad run in with them and are biased against them?
