I agree with everything you said here, great work. Also, it's a mod's job to listen to the complains after all.
I agree with this too. I want people to ask me questions, or give suggestions. I think that a moderator should listen to people too. The way I decided a long time ago to moderate (back when I modded the old boards) was to try to keep an even hand, and to give people more than one chance. Most newbies aren't disobeying the rules on purpose. Some are, of course, but they'll get dealt with quick when they keep on doing what got them in trouble in the first place.
I won't say I've never screwed up, and jumped the gun on that stuff, but generally, that's what I try to do.
