Not their moderator acts, as I don't follow them at all.
Just the conduct of some of the moderators hasn't been, exactly as well behaved as you would expect.

I know that no-one really believes me about things changing that much, and it might be that most of the changes and people who came here from RGT .. generally affected my expeirence of the forum more directly than others. Many were people that knew me prior, and were still holding fairly major grudges.
From a personal perspective things have been looking up recently, given most of those who've made my experience on this forum hell in the past have either moved on or simply ignore me.
Still there are some underlaying problems with how these forums have really been dealt with in the past.. it'll take time for them to regain most of what was lost, but realistically I think it was the whole "innocence" that was lost.
There are still days I visit here though, and I chringe at things I see. Sure some of these are from larger user-bases, but dunno.. just kinda wish things were how they used to be again.
