I'd rather have mods that support the discussion of and learning about hip hop than the belittling of those who are less knowledgeable and experienced.

this is the important part. Discussions will never improve in this place if the ones who actually know what theyre talking about and are in charge resort to "youre stupid" instead of "no and this is why.....". Mods set the example, as stupid as it sounds they are sort of like role models here because if they do something then people will think its okay to do it too.

That really isnt asking for much and is something every mod adheres by. While it shouldnt be the deciding factor of whether they should be removed from their position right now it should be something that the new mods must realize. However many people changed the way they acted and posted when they became mods, i know a couple who made entirely new accounts so that they could post with no discrepancy, so the new mods should be given the benefit of the doubt for now.
