If I can just throw my tuppence in.
I've not been here very long, although I did lurk for a bit beforehand. Recently things in General Chat have been a bit off-balance and, in my opinion, cliquey. For example, last night's thread about the "cool people only" and telling others to get out of a thread was a bit far. And there have been other threads which, to me, were pretty pointless. I think some of those got deleted though.
I have no problem with moderators, and can totally understand why they are needed, especially on a site such as this. People initially come here to either find out about or get support for their self harm, eating disorder, or other problem and so to be caught up in a flaming argument or not made to feel welcome can be quite destructive for them.
