This is the second time you’ve put words in my mouth. If I answer your leading question, will it stop? Probably not.
But to answer you: both here and on reddit I’ve been in communities where the mods have been fine. The fact that I understand what people shit talk reddit mods for, and I saw it happen to me here, doesn’t mean I think all mods are trash and I’ve only had bad experiences with them.
So you’ve had this experience on reddit, and here… At which discussion forum have you had your best experience with moderators?

Hard to say. Good moderation is like air: if it’s there you don’t even really notice it, if it’s missing, everyone is miserable.
But why does it matter? Does the fact that one place is better than another preclude any single moderator from doing a bad job?
