I appreciate that, but opinions are something that will never please everyone (as we're witnessing right now since I'm replying to this haha) and I think that a mod should still be able to express their views as long as they are of course sticking to the rules of the forum.

I think for the most part the forum works very well with moderators and members sort of being on a similar level. It may look strange and of course I'm not speaking on behalf of the mods but I do think it's nice that the mods can give their thoughts as well as have to do the job of helping people and cleaning the forum. It's only the occasional vendetta and it really isn't that often. If a mod was abusing their power that much, they would have those rights taken away from them. I'm fairly certain of that.
