I realize you’re short-staffed on moderators and could probably use all the help you can get, but her blatant malice during discussions is starting to cross a line. I really believe someone needs to address this.
The latest instance, which honestly got under my skin enough to make me speak up, was how she completely twisted my words just to have an excuse to insult me.
If you actually follow the thread, it’s incredibly obvious that I didn't say what she claims I said.
When random users insult me, I don't mind much. But when moderators do it—acting so flippantly without actually reading or understanding the context (or perhaps intentionally ignoring the point of the debate, which is arguably worse)—that’s a different story. I understand there’s a distinction between being a regular user and being a moderator, and that mods are allowed to participate in debates like everyone else, but I highly doubt it's truly possible to keep those two roles entirely separate.
A while back, I already raised concerns about her habit of handing out bans and labeling people as trolls. Unfortunately, her personal grudge against me has only intensified.
A few weeks ago, I pushed back against the mocking and insulting of children on certain threads on the FBI boards. In response, a group of women, including Justin Foster45, mocked me, called me a "moralizer," and tried to convince me that it’s perfectly fine—to go around calling out and insulting kids whose photos are posted online.
For some reason, that kind of behavior has become accepted as normal on the FBI forums. Personally, I don't think it's right, and it shouldn't be.
On top of that, aside from this specific incident, the FBI forums have turned into a mess of endless, disorganized threads about everything under the sun. That's just how moderation is going lately. If a moderator's role is to insult people rather than actually moderate, then you probably don't need them there in the first place.
You're missing one detail—Justin Foster45 isn't actually a moderator on the main site..
I don’t really know what kind of facial expressions people are looking for here, but I mean, even Diana didn't have a ton of them to begin with, right? Honestly, I actually like that she isn't overacting. If anything bothers me, it would be that—but it doesn't. Like, for example,

Man, we might honestly need a dedicated server just for Anthony Nguyen81 at this rate. 🙂
Does anyone actually have a way to check how many people are ignoring him?
I mean, I feel like keeping up with a tree might be more of a headache than it’s worth—but hey, what do I know? I haven't exactly gone to school for this kind of thing, I guess.

Freedom for the people! 🙂
So, who was actually doing the construction, the old colonialists? 😁
Haha, I mean, there’s definitely some logic to it, I guess. For me, I only really felt that main one and then that little half-seven thing about six days ago. Nothing else since.
I honestly don't remember any tremor lasting longer than this current "big" one. It wasn't even that intense—nothing actually fell over, things were just kind of rattling around—but man, people around here are pretty jumpy because of our history with earthquakes, so... yeah, everyone just kind of panicked.
