We don't need global mods, but a trusted counsel would be good. Several times I've recommended that M7 pick a trusted counsel to take on some of the burden, including collectively determining who's misbehaving poorly enough they need to go, then presenting the proof and verdict to him. This not only frees up his time and energy but it also diffuses the "dictator" aspect. His failure to do so leaves me wondering whether he's a masochist, a megalomaniac, or he feels no one on SaidIt is worthy of his trust. Unless there's already a secret SaidIt Force.
