I get it, you're annoyed at some of the conduct going on, but to be honest I think you're being a tad extreme. Some people can be unfair at times, but these same people tend to contribute a lot of valuable stuff too, hence why they haven't been banned. The mods do act on these things, they really do. You weren't here for Renob or OMCdave, and possibly even Nella and her lot, but if a member is out of line and causing too much trouble, even if they've been here a while they get seen to. The fact it, because the mods know that these people can contribute well they let more slide when it comes to their behaviour because, as I said, they know that these members can contribute well and it's worth putting up with the occasional (because it really isn't as constant as you seem to feel) "douchebaggery" as you put it, for their valuable posts.

And of course the mods won't ban you or close the thread just for speaking out against them. They're not communists.
