   Comments on moderation policy are always on topic (as long as they are   
   phrased without overt insult). However I am at a loss to understand why   
   you believe that the moderators exhibit bias. It is true that when a   
   poster has a long track record of constructive responses the moderator   
   may not read everything they write with attention to possible serious   
   breaches. However it just takes a single complaint and the moderators   
   will put the person onto the careful watch list.   
      
   As I get to see the rejections (one of the privileges of being a   
   moderator even though largely inactive at the moment) I can say   
   unequivocally that the number of rejections for any reason are minuscule.   
      
   Yje commonest cause for rejection is a post that has no technical   
   content. Experienced participants know how to avoid falling into that   
   category.
