My favorite reddit subs were ones where either the mods are laid back (good luck) or absentee. I think downvoting works great for community self-regulation without the need for arbitrary rules or power trips.

The only downside is many people don't want to have to deal with seeing spam or off topic stuff and downvoting it, but I think that's a small price to pay for not dealing with reddit mods.
