Do you ever wonder why you might be in that boat? No, because this community doesn't leave much room for imagination.

>doesn't sensor language

>really only bans people for being twats
Yeah, mods are dicks.
We give you guys a chance to correct your behavior. When that doesn't happen, we step in.
I'm surprised people aren't happy with this way of doing things >_>
Yes, having no censor is nice, but it's not really much of a selling point. There should just be no censorship in general. It's kinda like saying, "Join our forum! We let you post!" It's not a seller, it's a... no brainer. I'm glad you have it, but... it also just has very little to do with moderation (that's more a policy). Telling people not to fight is... again, just one of those things that mods... you know... SHOULD do. Banning people only for being twats... Um... Okay. Not sure how to feel about that one, considering that a lot of people find ME insufferable and annoying, but I haven't even received so much as a warning since I came back. But yeah, in general, I don't have a problem with any of the mods--they are too lenient, however, and that's what this is about.

Loosely speaking, maybe, but then so has everyone. Get off your high horse. In my opinion, any shitpost you make deducts from any positive contributions you might have made in the past. But whatever.

Any. Holy shit, it must be a cold day in hell for me to agree with you here.
You and I both agree on a lot more things than you seem to care to notice.

I personally find sites like these more entertaining when there are less rules, but then people always demand that mods get fired for not banning half the community when it gangs up on someone who's being a retard. You are the opposite of what this forum needs. You can argue that I'm on the same boat, but hey, look, I'm actually trying to contribute here. I've made contributions to this forum.

I like what I'm hearing from Sandtrap, as always, except for the bit about punishment for "harassing PMs." If you're receiving harassing PMs, block whoever's harassing you. In my opinion, PMs should ALWAYS be between the recipient and the sender and no one else. Mods should have no jurisdiction under a private setting. Unless in extreme circumstances where... I don't know, they're sending you child porn or something.

This issue was more or less resolved with the removal of custom options upon a formal warning. Having those go away for a while isn't exactly an accessory like that "watched" state was, but at the same time it didn't impact a user's posting ability unless they were lite-banned. Right, I forgot about that. That's good. Sort of. I mean, I'm having trouble putting myself in the position--like, not everyone has a titlebar, and not everyone really cares enough about their titlebar. Let alone the words on it. But it's something...

I could discuss forum policy all day. Maybe that's just what I'll do from now on.

We can only communicate as much as possible. An example was allowing everyone to see the "Warned" title to show that we actually gave out warnings frequently. Of course, then people used it as an accessory and just shitposted to get it.
It became less of a punishment. To me, that was a big mistake to remove that. Because if you're willing to shitpost just to get it, that just goes to show how much contributional value THAT user has, if that's how they're gonna treat their forum. That's why if they continue, BAN the fucker. Permanently. They're obviously not fit for intelligent discussion/posting. I mean, I hate to blame Noelle, but that whole trend sort of was her fault, but she was just being vindictive. And just like the sheep that a lot of this community consists of, they followed it. I don't fucking know. I just don't think it has to be this difficult.

Moderating is subjective soo.... It probably shouldn't be. You should all have this objective standard for rule-breaking that you all agree on. Leave no room for that subjective bullshit that just gets in the way.

Fuck no.
The mods need to be fucking draconian when it comes to shitposting, but they ENCOURAGE IT INSTEAD.

They don't have three words to describe them (no personality).

Right.
Because I was gonna follow that up with, "This thread is nothing like that."

Hey Das, remember how much fun the off-topic thread on Coup was?

Keyu's thoughts are probably like... the least valuable things in the universe to me.

Pokémon... Street Fighter... Zelda... Retro stuff. Obscure stuff you've probably never heard of, like Jade Cocoon.

I love how none of the mods ever call Verbatim an asshole. Patently false.

I didn't even know they were together. I mean, that explains a lot, I guess. Is Tim Burton finally going to elope with Johnny Depp now?

What was the point in starting conflict?
You guys argue Verbatim is negative but are typically the ones to start shit thank you

Whatever you say, Verbatim Except I wouldn't say that, because there is no hell to go to.

You're actually taking pictures of yourself and your friends just to prove to some random guy on the internet that you have friends!? LOL
Insecure much? Now he can't use the same generic insult. Problem? Shutting a cunt down = Insecure. Got it.

« on: December 24, 2014, 12:40:49 AM »
Because you're too stupid to tell it's the same house? And I would totally go through the effort of finding a random photo on the Internet? I know. Same fucking tree, bro. Get over yourself.

This would be believable if you hadn't lied about having friends.

Four of us just playing Halo. I'm usually pretty bad--in the past, I'd always get last place in slayer matches and I'd be lucky to get more than like, five kills.
This time, I actually had a lot of fun. I got better, apparently. I won a third of the games we played and got my first killing spree (ever). I was only in last place once, but that was when we played on some weird map that required you to commit suicide first, and I didn't realize until halfway into the match.
Then we just fucked about on custom maps that they all made seven years ago. This is us meeting up after us having not seen each other for months, by the way.
But even after all that--even after me getting better and having legitimate fun playing Halo with my friends, I still think that Halo fucking sucks. Because it does.
So... Guess it's NOT just because I suck, huh.
