Excessive moderation

Whatever
Just wondering what problem are you guys trying to solve for with the excessive moderation. It’s not like we get a lot of traffic here and most regulars already know each other well enough.

By excessive moderation you are probably pushing away the regulars. Would be great to understand the motivation to do this and why now?

Anyways, just a thought. Seems like moderation is being done to demonstrate power than actually improve experiences.
 
This place has been lacking proper moderation for a long time, with asshats running rampant with their shitposting.

To the contrary i think its that lack of modding that drives regulars away. I welcome a more iron fist.

We're just trying to clean the place up a bit, I have no interest in pushing anyone away but there's a consensus among the staff that the "pelllets", "mum", "slaps" has gone too far.

You see me asking people to reword or delete posts as I'm around in ET hours. We're asking for adult cooperation, not demonstrating any sort of power. If that's what we were trying to do you'd see more bans, no? :)
 
I play grow up all week everyday of the week. I come here for fun and jokes probably the only thing that has sustained this forum more than any others I have visited over the years (except maybe support forums). So still a bit unclear on what problem is being solved. To me there doesn’t seem to be a problem to solve IMO or we are solving the wrong problem.

We can still have fun and jokes, your barbs with Hapa about each other's PCs are hilarious. The "problem" is that some of the jokes have gone too far and are getting old, IMHO and that of the staff.

Surely you can come up with a new KAC Rage persona that is not based on mums and pellets, no?
 
I don’t think you may have noticed but I am not making mum jokes for a while now. Same for pellets etc. I think today I used slaps maybe after 4-5 months.

So don’t think this is about my persona alone but just that every time it seems someone says something they are being asked to edit out or do it the “new r3d clean way”. Next we will say that calling gay or manches is dirty and we should stop using those terms.

Anyways, I got my answer and it is what it is.

I have noticed, I know you're making the effort and that's why we're asking others to make the effort as well.

And no, the manches are here to stay. ;)

This. I don't think it's near the level of iron fist though, but it's enough to keep things on track a bit more.

I like it.
