This is an important factor in the moderators work.

I wouldn't even consider being part of the mod team if this wasn't true.
So, while things may seem a bit strange at times, from the outside, no bans are implemented without prior discussions between available team members.
This ensures, to me at least, a certain level of objectivity in the decision and avoids personal issues that may occur between staff and members.
