What has been your experience with mods/admins in general?

I would never be someone's bitch just to gain their favor.

Doubt that, although I wouldn't describe it so provocatively. It's more like serving someone purely because of the position they hold. Like a boss to an employer. This is what I consider within my definition of "simping", which is a somewhat vague term, admittedly. I get that you're probably annoyed or angry cause of your experiences, though.

in general is the subreddit of a group better than discord group in terms of the quality of knowledge

I had bad experiences where mod bans for minor thing and doesnt care... in this case times you out for 20min then if you want a clarification why he did it he adds another 20min just for me asking about it, it can really be awful ?

[SamC]

Never had any problems

In my experience, Actualized.org is an incredibly great and useful platform in general because of Leo's content and the information shared on the forum.

Everyone knows I'm no angel, but the worst thing about actualized is its moderation team. They can be and do a lot better, imo.

Maybe it is an issue. Idk

So far, my experience on this forum has been pretty bad - I saw admins abusing their power in bad ways, one example was @NoSelfSelf... I called something wrong out on a post he made and he told me to "watch out with my tone" even though I didn't even say anything mean...

For reference:

@Michael Jackson You know what you doing but you think we dont know and you are acting like nothings happening so ignore that and keep on going stop replying and making a drama out of nothing and we cool...

[Carl-Richard]

@Michael Jackson This is not another dogpiling thread. Keep it to "mods/admins in general".

@Michael Jackson

   What do you mean? I see very few problems related to admin or the mods in general in this forum. Me and several others here were treated more fairly than any other forums out there.

My experience is good. I recognize everyone is human here, the possibility for misunderstanding, so I try to be clear and forgiving when communicating.

I'd have to get some feedback from you guys but I think I'm doing a decent job since I haven't received any hate mail  I try to have a light touch and only hand out warnings/delete stuff when it's explicitly harmful or violating a posted rule.

I also pay attention not to visit when I'm in certain emotional states, as I'm only human and could conflict with my judgement.

Bold of you to post on my thread after giving me warning points..

We'll see if you still say "it's ok, we're all only human" after you get banned because a mod was in a bad mood.

Sending some love to all the mods. Modding a place is very tough. 

Tougher than any job.

 This isn't my first online forum or group. I think I haven't had any problems because I have learned how to conduct myself over the years. but I hear you, getting banned sucks. I think the warning point system is pretty good, and I think it takes 20 points to get banned? that's quite a lot of warnings.

Yeah I just kinda don’t act like a jackass, so I don’t really have any issues.

I'm pretty sure most of the most here do it for good reasons. Although there definitely could be exceptions (I'm not here that often so idk). In fact I'm 99% sure there are exceptions by reading these posts.

My perspective is that a person who's into self actualization should find the idea of getting "power" from becoming a moderator pretty ridiculous. If someone needs to feed of that miniscule power moderating gives you then they definitely don't even have their base needs in check.

People should become moderators only if they care about a cause and want to help.

I agree, but how common are heated debates on a forum like this?  If you're both being equally rude to each other, the mod has the upper hand.

In addition, mods are usually more integrated into the community, and are more likely to have good social skills (if they were picked to be mod), and thus are more likely to gain support from the community in any conflict.
