Mhm, these days when a regular chatter is 'discussing' something with mods, the threads get closed.

> Mhm, these days

o.0 It's never been different. I think they even used to be more triggerhappy than now.

Trollolololol

I don't like it. They should give a chance to other contributors as well.

Well from 2006 to now it sure has become more obvious to me..

You could get away with full out debates, personal insults, threats.. whatever you wanted as long as it wasn't breaking ToS. If you ever read ToS, you realize it doesn't say shit about attitude. Each individual moderator is beginning to make up their own little wussy rules. Flirt says "Mild Language" is allowed. What does that entail? To me, that seems like light usage of cuss words(if any), and generally non-directed, eg "I couldn't open that damn stupid box". Yet, you'll still get banned for that under the minority of mods(but growing) and of course any reports on the mod's judgement go unnoticed as expected. I could give you a list of the most ridiculous and arcane situations where I've gotten banned like childhood stories or something. I don't even care anymore. It's like a game to see how far they'll go with their modern 'imaginary ToS'/self-judgement...

What I've written already will probably get blocked anyways so I'll hold off on a full rant.

gee, is it that time of year already?

is awesome!

Well it is clear some mods are bias as hell. Now they will come and shout that it is not the case. But that would be a blatant lie, I can't take them serious anymore.

What you are experiencing is that the level of the mods is dropping down ever since the good old days. I attribute that to the lack of personality of the mods nowadays :)

I agree with you concerning the use of mild swear words that aren't directed at any one. I don't see any harm in that. Personally, I'd even allow the words 'fuck' or 'fucking' if they are not directed at a person and not used excessively. Many ops go overboard with that.

However, I have absolutely not patience for people who come into a room with the goal of bothering or abusing people and I welcome moderation in such a case.

Oh and, did you notice that your contribution was not blocked? Sometimes it helps to keep an open mind before one gets bitter.

The evidence is really piling up here...

It'll get blocked.

I smell something else piling up here, ow its you... nvm

Perhaps a lesson you should learn to, just saying :)

> please be polite.

your words, not mine. cant practice what you preach, you can go shove a coconut up your
whazoo.

Dude, you're like a dog with a bone. So, we had a run-in on another thread. It's been closed, it's over. So, you can let it go now.

Also, you can't demand people not to give you 'personal' answers when you get personal yourself whenever it suits you. You will have decide what's it going to be or else nobody will take your constant requests seriously.

some chatter and some mods should take a break, i think. a never ending fight between some chatter + against mods.

i don't say any names, they know themself, but i think some mods like mackay don't earn the mod status, cause he act like a troll.
but thats spin, that will never end, guys be proud to be on the english version, the german version getting more horrible in this point.

thats my opinin¹

i have no opinion about you, i don't know you.

but you have to get over it, you go from one to another thread and fight against everyone who don't suite your mind and get personal, whats rly needless.

you act like a child wich get no candies of your mum. roll over the floor and cry the shit out of you.

I choose: MODs are cheeky board contributors, too

The most cheeky thing i have seen on these boards is Hikari on the PSR board

posting to Refton¹, and then having the cheek

to block his posts. To me that is treason towards SPiN and should not be accepted, yet it is.

Just my 2 cents :)
