Well i cannot agree with you at all... This would be a total censorship.
Actually there are many clean and good forums out there as far as Open Source Society is concerned... Just go and look around the KDE, GNOME etc etc forums... And there is no strong Moderation there...

In fact forums can stay clean if the people do not waste their time replying to threads they consider throlling, disgusting, not interesting etc. Because it is a fact that "throlls" in any forum are just as guilty of making a thread "unclean" as the people that reply to them with things like: "Oh not again, leave.", "Would someone pls moderate this one"... etc.
When you want to get rid of a thread that you do not like... the only thing that will work is not posting in it... that is the simple truth..
As for the "community" here.... well it is a good example of what happens when Open Source Code is combined with Propriety Source Code.... And the only one that really profits from all this is Nokia... 'cause the support of a product when involving the Open Source Community is much less expensive :P
