Well VgChartz already forbids discussing moderations and critiizng mods outside a select few threads such as this one. I'd say we're halfway there already.

I'd rather support something that "partially" allows free speech rather than the alternative which is none at all. If you can't speak about other user line of action or thought, you, me, and 99% of VGChartz would have been banned already.

 

Don't embrace something you don't actually support.

That someone needs to be the mods. 

People need to criticise comments, not the user making them.

No.

So you say that the mods have the ultimate power. Can't I criticize their actions? They have free will to ultimately do whatever they want with the users?

If we couldn't criticize mods, we wouldn't even been having this conversation. The same rule can ble applied to users.

It's not a matter of bullying. Some behaviours are subject of opinion, whether that user want to accept it or not. You accept people based upon whom they are, they way of thinking, not their actions. A close friend can do things you can't understand or don't agree with, but you would still accept him because you've previously connected to the person. Of course, actions tend to be a manifestation of his persona, but this is not always the case.

Formulate an opinion about a person is imprescindible. It's free speech what we're talking about. Crossing the line between opinion and bully is where the banneable thing start, but not before.
