I found this thread at LD4ALL which is somewhat irritating. Also, DreamBliss has posted at the bottom, raging on nina for being a cruel mod. Some quotes from that thread (not all from the same person):
Spoiler for Quotes from linked thread:
that's one of the reasons I joined LD4all instead of DV myself. It's a hella lot more friendly and warm in here
There's a different culture there, true, one that tolerates a lot more trolling than here. But not every forum needs to feel like family: they're very competent
I have been to pretty much all the dream sites out there, and by far, Dreamviews has the most corrupt moderation of any site.
If you haven't made friends with the atleast some of the many Mods after you join, and someone labels you a troll, or you say anything they don't like, even non-insulting, they have a variety of ways to make your stay there, frustrating, degrading, and if it leads to a banning, then the humiliation doesn't end there.
It is a competitive site. They see other dream forums as competition.

She insulted me, called me desperate among other things, talked like no female I have ever met (or would ever want to meet)
DreamBliss himself seems unaware of the hacking situation at DV, not that it matters now. I suppose I've never been a member of another LDing forum, so I don't know whether the ideas expressed have any basis.
It angers me a lot, because to me, DV is like a big 'family' (for lack of a better word). That "not every forum needs to feel like family" comment pissed me off more than anything. The hacking situation has made me feel that to be true more than usual. Although, if I separate myself I realise I may be experiencing some sort of 'hive mentality' and so perhaps my antagonistic feelings are irrational.
