To be clear, not talking about this community, obviously πŸ˜›.

What's the point of writing down rules, if mods just do what they want? But I suppose that's the risk you take when you call someone a liar in a small community; they might be a mod.

Edit: I'm not trying to say that mods suck, they perform a useful and often thankless job. Just that it can be difficult for small communities to get a healthy number of good mods, which can become a problem.

Have the rules voted by the community, and moderators elected/impeached by its community.

lol so you want to increase the amount of work mods do and then vote them out when they do shit you don't like.

here's an idea: become a mod yourself. do the unpaid work of cleaning up the trash so other people can whine in entitled posts like this about how all the mods are trash. jfc

spoiler: am mod, and apparently asking for fairness and clear rules agreed by the community is being entitled now

then vote them out when they do shit you don’t like.

no, it's vote them out when they do shit the majority of active members of the community don't like.

Yes, it's unpaid, doesn't mean you're entitled to the community itself.
