No. The players can flag posts. The most the software can do it grey out a post pending Mod review, but those can still be clicked on if someone wants.
The software does not remove threads, penalize people, etc. That is all human decisions. The GMs don’t moderate these forums. There are other people who do. Mostly the Forum Support Agents.
The forum Code of Conduct and policies are what govern posting, which are under the EULA. You can find them here.
Posting about moderation, esp specific threads, is against the code of conduct for the record.
Yes, if the thread turns into a dumpster fire, and the thread did not have anything else unique to offer for game feedback, the mods may just close it, close and make it non-listed (CMs can still read for feedback), or delete it.
We have no “rights” here, like it or not.
Yeah, if people can make dozens of posts in a min a mod can review it and see that it is a duplicate, off topic/spam, against the forum rules, trolling/flame bait, etc. They don’t need to mull over that any more than the people posting in it did.
You are free to ask them of course…
You can move your own thread to the CS forum by editing the first post and selecting the Customer Support forum from the drop down list.
