I have been on GS and so many other forums for so many years. Mods actually do something. Sure they over do it but still. Look at game-trailers they are so racist and curse like crazy. Many forums allow you to talk about other things and mods really don't do anythings. And on other sites a suicide porn thread is normal and you don't get banned. These forums are amazing and one of the best. It is neat and clean(beta version looks like giant bomb).

Not really. I don't mind cursing and most people ignore racist comments or flame them.

All the things you mentioned should be allowed. Except racism. Well unless it's a minority making fun of white people because that's funny right?

Gametrailers is better than this imo. The mod system at least. You can still PM while suspended and you can speak with a mod to have the suspension lifted. Here I got modded by mistake and nothing could be done about it( I didn't get suspended, but still)

I actually agree that the mods do stuff that abide by the rules on this site, however, I think that some of the rules are just too strict.

No moderation system is perfect. There are varying degrees of moderation that works on forums with different intents.

Sometimes I feel they put rules in just so there are rules (like "lol" as a comment constitutes as disruptive posting) but otherwise I agree with you.

The mods are good except for that duxup character. It's been shown that he has associations with William Ayers.

I came here a few weeks ago from Gamefaqs and I like this place much better. I would report clear censor bypasses on Gfaqs and still no moderation. I also had some guy in one of my threads say "TC, your an idiot" I marked him for flaming, and guess what? No moderation. I've reported stuff here though, and it gets modded like it should. ;)

Some of the moderations here are questionable and some of them are for the most trifle things sometimes. Seems like they nitpick and look for the tiniest mistake from your post sometimes.

I've been to other forums where mods are a tad looser and I found those forums to have a more enjoyable experience.

Go to the Something Awful forums, and you'll probably change your mind.

Agreed. Mods here just act snotty cause they can. Because the admins tolerate it. On IGN, they just want yout o enjoy yourself, and mods step in only when something really bad is going on. Here, the mods jump on every little thing for no reason. I'm sure they say they have a reason, but we all know it's really just an excuse. ;)
