Letter To the Mods

lol, charming. very nice.

yeah, thanx mods. i guess it can be said once in a while.

*Pukes* :?

And suspending me for ''Begging and/or Providing ROM/Warez/MP3/Cracks/etc''

All I did in the Thread was complaining about games prices. But the mods don't allow free speech.

Are they volunteers? Well, then I guess I can't blame them. Not being paid and having to do work I personally would find that extremely frustrating.

there is no free speech in the U.S. so why should this site be any different?

This is an international site...

And I'm from Europe btw.

Praise and criticism are funny things. If this thread was of the latter variety this thread would have been locked by now me thinks. :) For the most part they do a good job, but on occasion they mod people for ridiculous reasons.

The only reason I post here is because the community is much bigger. Dutch (I happen to Dutch also) sites are much smaller in my experience. Not to mention I simply like the English language more.

Oh please---this site censors itself it has nothing to do with any country's influence

I do not agree with the TC. I could give reasons, but i would be modded for them.Videodogg

keeping my mouth shut but nodding in agreement

I was suspended for a week for "harassing and offending other members of the forum" when I told somebody that he'll need a flame shield after he ranted how much Super Mario World sucked.

...But yeah, thanks for the good work, I guess.

no you weren't. :|

we don't need them and I sure as hell don't want them. freedom of speech is one of the founding principles for this country and to have some elitest internet cop try to tell me what I can and can't type really irritates me, even more so if my mod'd statements are WELL within reason. you guys gonna mod me for this too?ninjaxams

then why'd you agree to the ToU when you made your account? :?

You only have one post what did you ever say that was wrong? :lol:

yes and why does it censor itself?.... you think it has a mind of its own? lol..

PullTheTricker

ofcourse this community is bigger. the forums are great here. Dutch sites are much smaller.. what does that have to do with it?

and you like english more than dutch.... okay...you talk english all the time then?....

Grats mods on keeping the forums generally clean.

Yes it does. Most US forums bans profanity (OMG a word!) and a breast. You get banned for either, that my friend is US censorship.

i hope you're being sarcastic
ULTIMATEZWARRIO

nope. it's one big censored country

This is off topic it should get locked.Flexmaster_365

lol, true.

If this is an international site then why does it say 'Gamespot UK' at the top of my screen?

On a side note: Do any of the mods own a PS3? I looked at Casey's profile when he said something that I thought was biased (can't remember what now). Since then, whenever I've seen a moderator I've checked their profile and I haven't found one yet that owns a PS3.

It must be hard to be impartial if the majority of the mods don't own one of the systems (an observation not a criticism before I get modded!)

I gained respect for the mods when I saw the way Casey got treated when he tried to involve the community in a decision.

They have a high tolerance level.

in fact no! the censorship on this thing is beyond funny, is it so hard to create an over 18 forum? power corrupts and these people(i use the term losely) have no sense of humour and are unable to to take things in to context or even seem to understand simple inflections of speach. yeah well done!!! guysgeordie73

you know its bad when i have to check my posts in case a mod/poster misunderstands a joke or sarcasm.

agreed they do do a good job. And if you ever disagree with their moderation you can alsways ask them on the mod board.

edit: whoop, double post. sorry mods ;)

GOOD JOB
