Well, seeing as they have the ability to delete posts, they can skew the conversation in the direction that suits their agenda.
If they stuck to their roll of only enforcing TOU, that would be fine, but they do not.
Furthermore, having a post that was inappropriately delete be a mod put back on takes time and the damage has already been done. Mods need to be held to a higher standard, given the responsibility they have.
If you believe what I have stated here is inaccurate, you are either blind, or have your own agenda. IMO.
