I am curious why you think it would be better if the admins were not around?
My example won't exactly apply to posting on an internet forum, but I specifically prefer to work night shifts and weekends for exactly this reason: It's easier to get things done if you're not forever looking over your shoulder in fear of your actions being misconstrued. To get more jovial and genuine interactions, you must decrease the amount of administrative oversight.
You're always going to have the people who run to the admins with everything they perceive as a problem. I don't think there should be administrative intervention unless the actual problem breaks a law or one of the written rules.
