I think the D&D mods are doing a better job than pretty much anyone is willing to give them credit for.

I, uh, didn't really understand the Ukraine thread crackdown on discussion of a leaked US congress-signed open letter about aid to Ukraine, but if the hypothetical alternative to accepting that crackdown were losing CZS moderation, then no trade no deal - I would not want to gamble the D&D Ukraine thread on any other mod.

I do not think D&D moderation is anywhere near as severe or over-reaching as the vehement claims in this feedback thread. D&D is supposed to be the forum where you have to factually support your arguments and/or provide valuable information. Other forums with more relaxed rules are out there for people who prefer them.

Edit: I should clarify that I'm assuming CZS is the by far most active mod in the Ukraine thread, not the only mod of that thread.

I feel like you're mixing up this thread and the previous one. The major criticism I'm seeing is that D&D mods are inconsistent in their application of the rules, and far too lenient on some posters, not that they're too harsh.

Unless you're talking about their behavior in the regional threads?

I may have focused on the complaint with less voice in this thread.

You're right that some of the feedback has been "D&D mods apply the rules too inconsistently". I think that in situations where it REALLY matters - such as genocide denial, or one poster being truly vile to another poster - the rules have been consistently applied. In lesser situations, I don't feel qualified to venture an opinion on the consistency of rules application.
