I agree that that statement is clear and with my "fix" is not strictly
true any more. However, the summary statement says "Ceiling on
acceptable number of member posts, per interval, before automatic
moderation." implies that the threshold is the maximum number accepted
before moderation, so it's ambiguous.

I considered changing the detail description, but didn't for i18n reasons.

I do think that no one really want's the prior behavior with threshold = 1.
