I love the mods here. They might be hateful *******s at times, but if you saw the discussions in the private mods forum, you'd know they're applying the same standard to everybody, speak their minds even if it's unpopular. They might be offensive at times, but hey, this is the internet, grow a pair and get a thicker skin if you can't handle some mockery.
The amount of drama here is minimal, when I compare it to my other site - mods there are usually 50 or older, many are very conservative, many religious etc... silly issues drag on for weeks. Here it's simpler. Pure.

Amen.
At the end of the day we all feel confident that we're doing things in the right way and for the better of the forum in general. The fact that members can't see the discussions that go on in the staff forum means that will always be brought into question and I guess thats understandable. Also, where we have questions certain procedures and rules ourselves, we have actively put something in place to evaluate potential change and/or changed certain rules and guidelines outright as a result.
You can never please everyone, just set out to please the most people as possible and/or make the correct decisions for the forum and community as a whole.
