I agree entirely with what you're saying.

I'm sure most of us are in agreement that miscommunication is a major issue. As The-Bismarck mentioned in another comment, it's enough to disrupt a chain of command and this is very much the truth.

Now, Favoritism is also a massively ignored issue, as well as a large one. I've seen this on multiple accounts with multiple users and mods. As a mod myself, I can't offer feedback as to whether or not I do it myself, but if I do, it's most likely a subconscious reaction.

While I can write it off as subconscious reaction, it is far from an excuse. As mods and admins, it is our job for us to stay calm and collected, gather information from all sides of the argument and come to a decisive conclusion. This process is easily passed over and far too often at that.

That being said, I've also seen accounts where innocent users are condemned due to common misconception, which can easily be seen as another issue.

Keep in mind, however, that Admins and Mods are humans as well. Like most adults, we are prone to making mistakes (and hopefully learning from them) as well as falling to stress or other factors.

That being said, I would like to thank you for your opinion and comment, it has added some insight, that much is for sure.
