The moderation team needs to indeed work as a team. There is a moderators-only sub-forum where such matters are discussed. Grudges and other such distractions are not tolerated.
If you yourself want to volunteer, reach out to Jim A directly.
I get that, my point is how does someone become a moderator in the first place, I thought I remembered a call for volunteers to do so way back when MG stopped.
If folk can volunteer as moderators and are unhappy with current moderation I think a logical option is to put themselves forward to do the role. As I understand it there can be more than one at a time so not to replace current moderators but to complement them (probably not compliment given some posts up thread).
