On why Moderators is bad, the main problem is that it does not accurately express the scope of the site and is not a broad enough topic by itself. There are areas of community building that involve the founders of the community or the members of the community, but do not involve the actual moderation.

A community can not exist solely on the backs of the moderators that are involved with it. Yes, they may have a central role in helping guide the community and ensuring the communities wishes are carried out, but the community itself is also key. Many questions can not be answered without looking at the user's role and the role of the community members is key to many questions.

While the site started focused on moderation issues, it rapidly became clear that the topics are actually much more broad and necessarily must hit on both the owners and the userbase (related meta postrelated meta post) as well. This expansion to fill the gap resulted in a necessary change in the topic of the site to something much more broad than just moderation. It is simply no longer an accurate description of the topic of the site.
