Hmm I don’t totally agree. I get it probably mitigates risk , but it removes to much of the human element and sense of purpose.
I admined game servers and built a couple communities. I made long lasting friends I wouldn’t of met otherwise.
Playing with others gave me a sense of purpose to protect others. Banning cheaters to protect the community from grief felt good and fulfilling. We had some tooling to detect abnormal stats of users to help remove biases. Due to the game mechanics some scenarios were instant red flags.
IMO you should have a protocol in place for bans, and make sure to follow it to remove emotions. Admins should definitely keep each other in check when admin powers are used. Admins should continue listening to community concerns about a particular admin too.
Don’t let someone become an admin for self motivated reasons. Ensure they respect and identify with the community. Great admins often come from being apart of the community first.
