The communities for most servers are not exactly the most welcoming, and neither are the majority of staff. Some people have trouble making friends and/or feel as though they need to know more about the community to fit in. FAQs do provide a good service by answering questions, but it's also important for them to be welcoming, because if they don't do so, then who will? FAQ is about helping people, not just answering questions and help can be interpreted in many ways, but in my opinion the best way to describe it is to try to make people happy, without doing so at the expense of others' happiness.

There is no rule against moderators removing every single post in the forum they moderate either but they don't, what's your point here?

Why haven't we got 25 moderators per forum section? That wouldn't "hurts" either.
