What can Rallypoint do to help itself as a true veteran social media network?

Rallypoint is a great idea in theory. A place for servicemembers and veterans from all eras and walks of life to connect. But it doesn't seem like that is the case. In the current state it's a very toxic site that dissuades users from maintaining an account. All the post I see are from the same users and when there is the occasional new user the current community drives them out. What are some ways you think rallypoint could attract and keep new users to get a more diverse base? Some of my ideas are:

1. Better moderation. There's a lot of thinly veiled racism and politically charged low quality post on here. There's only so many time I can look at a post about how xyz politician is evil or something. It's exhausting to have to look at it everywhere. There's specific tags for it but people intentionally select numerous irrelevant tags so even if you're not subscribed to it you're forced to see it.

2. Better UI. The current looks nice but actually sucks when it comes to finding anything. It's more of a hassle than it's worth to find topics based on what you want to see, or distinguish between which post are which. It's also annoying to get suggested post that are 2,3 and 5 years old.

3. Less restriction on who can join. Needing to verify an account is the main deterrent for many people. Young people aren't trying to go through all this verification and old people don't know how to. Instead of just denying them access, there should be a limit on what they can do. For example if you're not verified you can only post/comment a limited amount of times per week, you can't direct message people and can't see certain information on other people's accounts.

4. That brings me to the final point. More Privacy. Most people like their privacy especially online. This is why I have very limited things filled out on my profile. While I understand some people want to know they're talking to a verified member even service members (especially servicemembers) can use this site for malicious reasons. You shouldn't have to worry about posting something on here only for it to end up on amn/nco/scno or worse, getting sent to your commanding officer. Also I highly doubt rallypoint is more secure than facebook, so your information is susceptible to being hacked

To be completely honest, this site doesn't offer anything military subreddits (on Reddit) don't but makes it 10x harder to join the conversation. What are some ways you think this site can improve
