Theres trolls and bullies on every forum.
Personally I don't think there should be moderation at all, except for obvious stuff, CP, Gore, Extremism et al.
I haven't looked on that forum tho

Forum moderation is probably a topic for discussion elsewhere
However, if your website is running 'The Clinic' don't be surprised if teams stop wanting to talk to you. I'm surprised more teams haven't called them out on it

This forum is largely self-moderated, that one regularly treats riders as sub-human, despite their attempts to moderate it.

A couple of minutes in the cyclingnews forums and I feel dirty. It's juvenile, incredibly partisan and distinctly anti-Sky. More over the moderation team are largely of the same ilk and posters that go against the over-riding 'everyone is doping' narrative are heavily censured and banned, while really unpleasant characters that troll regularly are free to bully and mock. It really is a cesspit. That nugget about Porte comes from there.
