I think this is always gonna be a difficult discussion, because there's a lot of things to take into account. For the most part, I think the mods do a fab job. As it's been mentioned, they aren't paid, they all joined for the same reasons every one of us did, and they offer support to other members when they quite possibly are struggling themselves.
I think it's hard to understand how hard it must be to keep rules in place, protect all members as much as they can, when we are all here due to suicidal thoughts and mental illness. At times, there are certain areas that could be improved, but that is a way of life, it's the same in all aspects.. nothing is perfect. And I know for a fact that the mods are open to suggestions, thoughts, ideas etc, and take it into account. I don't think it is beneficial to anyone for there to be animosity. If there are problems, it is much better for them to be settled amicably, and constructively. So yeah, while there may be some points that can and should be improved, the mods do the best they can.
I think there can be a healthy debate and discussion without rudeness or pinpointing, or bringing the thread down. Sharing thoughts is different than being hostile.
