ah yes, the singular other mod that hasn’t made a comment in 2 years???
I was wondering if he was still here and sent him a message not long ago. Turn out he is, and just mostly lurks those days. Which means that I’m alone doing the moderation most of the time, but that also that you can still try. What do you have to loose? Time? Looking how much you posted on this thread you seem to have plenty of it, so why not try?
and how can any of them disagree with you? do any of you even have the ability to review the comments?
They do, and there were time we disagreed on some mod action. In such case we talk about it together, and try to reach a concensus. That’s how some of our rules exception came to be.
If you can’t handle calling out bigotry then you’re on the side of the bigots. you stance enables the bigots. civilty can only exist when the bigots are dead.
Ah. The good old false dilemma fallacy. Either I’m with you or against you. Did you ever consider that others have their own way to fight those idiots without having to resort to screams, rage and oversimplification?
This community was founded to provide a place were people can talk about games in a constructive way. If you wish to have a community of your own where you can do as you wish, be my guest, and go create it.
I have a life, I can’t just be 24/7 checking new reports, and I don’t know any mean to get notified when one is opened.
As for the value of my action, if you feel like my action isn’t legitimate, you can either contact the other mods or the Admins.
We do not wish to have trolls and toxic people in our community, so if you cannot stop yourself from spreading your toxicity everywhere, then go elsewhere, this is not the only gaming community around.
Reminds me of The Mean Greens - Plastic Warfare.
Fantastic game, too bad no one plays anymore.
Congratulations, you’ve earned it.
As always, @[email protected] got the mods express authorization to promote his game as soon as his post are not meme and he does not excessively promote his game (aka spam it). One or two post a month are fine, as long as they are not direct link to his game with the text being copy-pasted from the Steam page.
Anyone wanting to do the same can DM the mods.
Note to the community :
This kind of content is allowed under the current rules as it does not promote the use of external cheat engines, not does it promote piracy.
Those informations are available elsewhere, sure, but isn’t, to my knowledge, an AI ripoff of another article.
In such case, no need to report the post. If you don’t like the content, feel free to downvote the post to hell.
Pepe wasn’t initially a racist meme, but was misappropriated by alt-righ groups. The author tried to fight it, but the damages were done. So the addition to the statistic by ADL is valid, but to be taken with the context it is in.
For reference :
If I strictly apply rule 1, this should be removed. But at the same time, after talking with OP via PM, it is true that it is still kinda related to games.
For now I’m gonna keep it, but an update to the rules is needed, to better define and explain them.
Edit : After a night of sleep I have to admit I was mistaken here.
Still, I’ll talk with the other mods about better defining the rules, I feel like it is needed.
With my kinda rigid interpretation of Rule 1, this should be posted on an hardware community. [email protected] maybe ?
Edit : After a good night of sleep I have to admit I was too rigid here. I’ll be more lenient in the future about hardware related subject, when it has to do with gaming. I’d probably still remove a topic about the latest AMD CPU or similar, but games consoles and its peripherals are indeed related enough to games to be allowed.
For those who wonder, @[email protected] has my autorisation to promote his game, as long as he do not break the rules.
No need to report this post :
In any case, congrats.
If you respected the rules it wouldn’t have to be moderated.
Calling Rowling a terf is OK (you are stating the obvious in such case), telling another user to fuck off, or for specific group of people to die isn’t.
