From what I've seen, I don't really agree with this. Moderation takes care of anything that's actively rule-breaking, but there are still issues of arrogance/fanboyism/baiting/other things that are supremely irritating but are either grey area or aren't actually against the rules.
Though that fanboyism would probably just feed into a whole lot of vote brigading, so I don't think it would really help matter. Basically we're all doomed to repeat the same cycle over and over on any forum which centres on video game discussion.
