I think they're doing a good job... They're still a little strict in some aspects but I don't know if that's their choice or not.

they wouldn't ban you for that unless you did something horrible. Suspend, sure, but not ban.

I was about to say lol but now I'm typing aimlessly cause if i just say lol its moderatable, but if i say "i lol'd" or "lol at this" its not apparently, cause they're all so different ya know? Now i watsed a good 10 seconds of my life changing this post so my lol doesnt get moderated.

And dont quote this, if you quote too much stuff the box gets too big and you get moderated for that.

I've seen people get banned for less. everytime we find a way to have more fun they ban it.

1 - account suicides

2 - fad topics

Meh, I just got moderated a few days ago for something stupid, but all in all the mods do a pretty good job cleaning the mean streets. I'm not talking about the cool people getting perma banned, I mean like getting rid of spam and such.

disruptive posting and topics outside of board description are the most frequent reports to me :? they are all justified, and against the tou. It's there for a reason, and not to be ignored ;)

I agree with this post.

Same here, I don't think there has never been a time that I have hit the report button. I take it like a man, unlike some people. As for the mods, they are doing okay, but they should lay off a bit and not just mod someone because someone else hit the report button.

why report them?...is it killing you not to be on topic?....side convos happen..and many times they are better than the original topic ......unless it's your topic.....why bother?......and what is disruptive posting?....right now this could be disruptive posting as I am not commenting on the mods instead I am commenting on reporting practices.........everything is vague in here......

Yeah I only ever really report when I see the "Check out this site to get your free Xbox!" threads. There is enough spam in my Yahoo inbox I don't want to see it here too.

Nah, I get modded for some of the smallest things. I got modded for calling someone pretentious even.

I actually do despise their very existence. Let's just say if you say anything bad about Gamespot, you get moderated even if it is your opinion.

And if this post gets modded, then that proves my theory even more :D

My old account, which was a pretty high level, the name was Six_shot i think, or it was 6shot, one of the two.

well, my brother, who i think was named bob_strife or cheez it kid or something like that, did a porn suicide. i had no idea about it.

I got freakin banned. i did nothing wrong, i wasnt(from know knowledge) even named in the thread. i got freakin banned.

i'll probably get banned for telling you all this, or modded at the least. but that is just inacceptable. i did nothing wrong, and i had a high level and post count too :(

If he uses the same computer as you, then it was an IP ban, taking down any accounts linked to that IP.

But if that's true, you shouldn't be able to make an account on the same computer.

The mods here suspend/ban you for everything. You could call someone flaming an idiot and get suspended for it while the person flaming is left alone. Hell, I'll probably get suspended for this too.

well i did, and i even sent a message to a mod about it when i first made this account. nothing happened, bad or good. so i doubt it was an IP ban. but w/e. i just wish i could get my old account back.

I agree. And just to add a bit for the mods, put away that damn "moderator's discretion" button.
