...the forums wouldn't be as good as they are!! Of course things should be a little less strict but I don't think it is as bad as someone may say..
This topic is locked from further discussion.
Another forums I frequent is rather lawless, and it's not exactly kid-friendly. :?
What more do you need from GS? You can speak your peace, have a religion thread, and talk about favorite snack foods. :P
I disagree. You can't say a whole lot here without being modded. I've been suspended over 10 times and I'm not even a bad user, and it does start to piss me off. I like the people here, but the strictness is DEFINITELY an issue and sure as hell hasn't made this place any better for me. The site needs to be more laid back if anything.Zaeryn
Well, I've been moderated over 30 times..
I think I'll start collecting moderations.. :P

Then how can I post so much without being moderated?
If they're so strict, then why is this thread's heart still beating soundly?
But seriously, I do think they are a bit much sometimes. Once I got moderated for saying I accidentaly bought a pirated game of eBay....seriously IS THAT MY FAULT!?

Because you follow the rules, obviously. But not everybody is capable of following every single rule, or are they fine with it, like I am. Sometimes I'd wish I had more freedom in what I say here. Of course I'm not a person to insult other users here or anything, as that should be strictly enforced no matter what, but I'm usually pressured into writing my messages a certain way to avoid moderations. Some of the rules are really, really needless. For example, I got a 3 day suspension for calling an object retarded. It's hard to disagree that rules like these are messed up. I don't think the mods are tyrants, it's the rules they enforce that are too strict.I disagree. You can't say a whole lot here without being modded.

You spoke freely. Prepare to be modded in 5...4...3...2...1...
Best advice....read the ToU....and stick within it.LJS9502_basicI do, but I still get moderated for absolutely nothing.
they should seriously throw out anyone under 15 out of gamespot...its hard to hold back the urge to cursemlbslugger86
I'd rather not read posts filled with cursing. Intelligence can express oneself with resorting to cursing.
Ya, I'm sick of people complaining about how strict the mods are here. I think that they do a great job. Sure, I've been modded many times, but most of the time it was deserving.

And people lie about their age all the time on the internet. You can't tell if someone is whatever age they claim to be.

Because you pay moniesss.
Two days ago, I got suspended for posting in a account suicide that had about 20 posts but no objection content. It just said "This is an account suicide. Ban me." I thought the whole point of not posting in an account suicide was because you don't want to keep objection content on the front page. I guess not...:roll:
Also, that same day I got a warning for saying "Get out of here, you hippie"...:|
Now you tell me whether GameSpot is better this strict...

Use your eyes and you'll see that Zaeryn also pays, unless free accounts can also change their name-colors now.
