Therin lies the catch-22, right? How to decide which things to democratically decide?
And I think I mean anarchy as in "political disorder" or "absence of order" as in the dictionary. A state like often occurs on admin when people disagree. It doesn't much bother me when that happens, but it does disturb a fair number of people here.
I think discussion and consensus would be extremely helpful. I just don't know how to go about it without it becoming the internet version of a shouting match. Ideas are welcome, for sure.
Maybe a facilitator of sorts? To make sure that actual issues are addressed and that people aren't saying the same thing, only louder.
Anyway, while I love the idea, I'm fearful that in practice it could cause hurt and problems.
