[QUOTE="JiffyPopTart, post: 8057532, member: 4881"] I never question moderation, and generally try to act like a guest in someones elses house when spending time here, however there is a moderator etiquette thing I have been noticing in the past few months. And by past few months I am referring specifically to the massive wave of real life discussions revolving around D&D changes, inclusiveness, and diversity. I don't complain about it to the mod team/Morrus because its not something wrecking the community or causing harm, but I will bring it up here because it is somewhat related to the OP. I have noticed that when the discussions start to get heated up, and some mods have to step in and start enforcing "Keep it friendly" that the quickness with which they call out Side A is not the same as with Side B. It just so happens they seem to be on Side B in the discussion in which they have to put on their mod hats. While I agree with Morrus that mods are modding as a public service and they shouldn't have to be inhuman robots when doing so. I don't even mind when they get a little snarky themselves towards someone that is being rude in the first place. I DO hope that they do their best to be both human AND impartial when it comes to giving warning/points/kicks/bans to those who both support and object to their personal opinions. [/QUOTE]
