Good afternoon: I believe that much of the animosity can be avoided by a few simple emendments to the listed rules.

A) When a post is deleted, the Deleter should 'post' precisely why it was deleted, not just a vague "violation" of the 6 rules It should also identify the deleter, and be posted in the 'off topics' for the rest of the posters revison to see if the mod was correct. This information should be posted by the deleting mod...

B) If, in the opinion of the other posters, a certain bit of favoritism, personal values, moral issues, etc., show up too regularly, or are directed to any particlar poster, than a method of demoting that mod should be made available to the other posters.

Perhaps by flagging each incorrect, or tainted personal decision against the mod. When a sufficient no of them, indicating predj., then a popular vote should be made to either keep, or remove the mod.

I.E. the mods themselves need to be monitored for biased behavior.
