They're not better, however that doesn't mean they should be insulted because they do a job, does it? Critizing is one thing, but all out insults is completly another - and thats whats been happening, insults towards moderators just because they're moderators. People keep saying that everyone is equal in the chat, they're not. Moderators can kick or ban people, can you? We are in no way a hierarchy though. Sure, they have different responsibilities than us, but it ends there. They don't have different rules to follow or any more leniancy than another user. Yes, it's wrong for them to be insulted, but a rule protecting ONLY them? I think it's a little corrupt, and I don't think the rule should be ELIMINATED, but perhaps modified to protect everyone from cyberbullying.
