I'm an advocate for freedom of speech, but I think the moderation is very good here. Like Puzzle pointed out, it's only like 1 or 2 threads a month, if that. I've been on some forums where the moderators are very controlling and all reactive, taking sides that really causes divisiveness in a forum.

I read Crazy Meds sometimes. I was going to open an account there to ask questions about meds, but was really turned off when one of the moderators deleted a thread and even banned the poster because they mentioned the concept of "borderline". So I'm just a lurker there instead.

I like lively conversations too, and intelligent debate. Why not start a thread about people searching for therapists, or something, and make it not personal? I think much of the discussion spurred from some of these posts is good content for a new thread about therapy in general.

I mean what would it be like if everyone started pressuring someone with psychosis who thought they were god?, to see it how you see it? I know from experience that the best way to deal with ACUTE psychosis, delusions, is to agree. That stabilizes the person until they can get real help, till meds kick in. To argue, point out, etc., puts them and yourself in danger and escalates the situation.

This is a mental health forum, and it's supposed to be for support. People can have nervous breakdowns, honestly, I don't see how the OP in that thread would have been helped by further arguments. Like I said, why not start a new thread about similar topics.
