It's good to hear that you don't plan on being heavy handed, but as someone interested in online communities and governance, I'd still be interested in the answer to seany's question about moderator transparency.

Do you intend to have admin/moderator actions visible in some way to the users? If posts are edited or removed (by users or mods) does that get indicated in any way?

Different approaches to these issues can significantly affect how a community grows, and I'm always very interested to hear how new sites choose to approach the problem.

Thanks for the follow up. Leap is very young and I want the community guidelines to evolve as we learn and as the community changes. To that end – I don't plan to edit other people's comments, but I could imagine deleting an offensive one. If I do intervene in a conversation, I plan to do it transparently. That likely means posting on Leap about the actions I took.
