There is certainly a bias in what some are allowed to do and others are not now as well. You want progress let's have a little transparency on what moderator is doing what to whom. 20 years I have never had a problem with a moderator until now. Mods for the most part are great but at least one of them is using that to **** with people and that is not good for the forum IMO.

The problem isn’t the Mods. The problem is with people that refuse to follow the rules.
When the additional forums were created 17 years ago, people began posting appropriate threads and posts in those forums. When someone posted a political or media related thread in The Lounge, the forum self-policed with members stating “Uh, there’s a forum for that discussion. Use it.”.
But today, too many people see the world through a political lens. They don’t care whether or not their posts are inappropriate for a particular forum, which has forced the Mods to not only create a Sticky in this forum but police it as well.
It’s not the fault of the mods that some people cannot follow a simple request.
