Before I can get into my opinions about what you said above, I would like to say that this is very well worded and has a lot of valid points ! It is true that PH has a different vibe and doesn't feel the same to be here as it felt a few years ago. I've always considered PH to be a second home to me, a place of comfort and relaxing; away from the real world.

...also I am sorry in advance if my post contains a lot of mistakes or is hard to read...my native language in not English...

1) Inconsistent Enforcement of Rules

I remember when people would get warned for rather, not so harmful words such as ''crap''. Now I can see a lot of swear words in threads by simply clicking the search tool on the main forum page. If I recall correctly, Riako himself stated that:

Quote from RiakoThe fact that mods only react when there's a report is true. That's what they're clearly instructed to do - otherwise we'd be living in a biased police state on here.

...which can be found on -mystery's similar thread in this forum post from that thread. I doubt that a mod cleaning out by themselves the swear words would ever be a biased action. The mods would simply do their job. Sadly, another unfortunate event is the lack of mods nowadays. PH is meant to have an audience from all around the world; with different time zones of course. A solution would be that when the mod application are open again, the user that applied should say where they are from so the time zone difference problem could be solved since at least 2-4 mods should be online every time. 6 mods can't cover PH's every problem since of course, they are humans and have their own personal lives as well outside PH. As I am writing this post, only 1 mod capable of warning and keeping things in control is online. The rest are Artists; which are powerless against an attack from, lets say, trolls for example like it happened last night.

2) Unprofessional Behavior

I saw this as well regarding to the mods participating in the drama as well. As you said this is a prime example of unprofessional behavior coming from a mod. A mod should never participate in such thing and even ignore it or at least ranting it privately since they have feelings too. But the problem about it is that participating in drama often results in unpleasant thoughts about (a) certain user(s) which, in the end, results in biased actions. I can't tell them how to do that job, that is not my intention either ! ...but in my mere opinion a mod should just ignore the drama unless it causes harm or is breaking any rule(s); in that case the user that broke the rule(s) should be warned/taken care of accordingly.
And about the second part of the unprofessional behavior you said, I'd also like to say that I do agree on the mods agreeing together rather than just one mod to decide about a permanent ban. Bonus points if they listen to the user that would like to revoke their ban and feel like it wasn't fair enough. Mistakes happen from both sides, it is not always just the user's fault.

3) User Complaints

Complaints were often seen as attacks lately which is not true, most of them are not even meant to be offensive. Some of them are constructive criticism which should be taken with a grain of salt. If a user is not happy about something be it a feature, game, event etc it should be always listened to. It is not bad to want something better as a customer.
When people try to complain about something they are told ''don't like it, don't get/play/watch it''. This is not an answer to complaints. Instead the ones that work on those should try to listen, take every good point from it and ignore the rude ones that are not constructive but destructive like straight up insulting something without giving tips to make it better. Pokeheroes is like a restaurant for example: if a customer is not happy about the services or the behavior of the people serving or both, then the customer will leave and has a chance to spread negative words around.

Quote from Tsukops this concept was taken from a comment stated as such, since I like how some of it's stated, "Mods need to have consequences too. If they do something wrong or jump too far ahead without getting CERTAIN proof first, like 2 times maybe, they should be "fired". There needs to be a system where users can report moderators themselves for misbehaving. Checks and balances".

Mods are not perfect beings. They aren't immune from doing mistakes or taking (a) rushed decision(s). And mods have certain rules to follow as well and I think there where cases in which mods were fired for breaking them but this was decided by Riako and the other mods themselves.
I think mods should have solid proof when perma banning, very much like users are supposed to leave solid proof as well when reporting someone, just in case the permanent banned user decides to reach out for help in case it was a mistake (maybe they could make a folder for each permanent banned user containing proofs). Sure, there might be people with grunges against the mods but they'd be powerless unless handing solid proof when complaining or ''reporting'' a mod.

In conclusion: this site has been like a home to me and I want the best for it. I felt like this site was forgotten by its creator more and more and the lack of activity here and a good community like it used to be once is lacking as well. I hope that in the future more actions will be taken and PH will be full of activity like it used to.

It's impossible to create an event that everyone will like, yes, this is true ! You can't always make something that will please the most people on this site...but there is only one thing I have seen around me and here on PH overall that is about the recent events. Lately, it seems that the artists here tried their best to find pokemon less loved by the fanbase which resulted in people...not being in awe or pleased by the event themselves.
The newer events were meant to make those unlucky pokemon to be more loved but sometimes, some pokemon are not liked by the majority for a reason. Sure, one person or two might be very happy but this can't compare with 1000 people that like the pokemon. More people liking the actual pokemon itself, the more people will interact to get the pokemon and be eager to hunt it. Lately the events weren't very exciting to get.

Now, another problem brought by this is that the events are not very often on this site as they used to. Now we get events so rarely...it feels like this site slowly dies...A community contest where users create events would bring a spark of joy again. It was actually demanded many times. This a very small part of the problem that the community faces in the obvious lack of activity this site has.

As many said, a solution to this is more people to make content. ~~more mods would be nice as well since the list became so small in the past 2 years and this site really needs it~~
