Yes, that happens a lot with that one in particular. They seem to share my posts elsewhere in order to do so. Which is also why I think moderation is very lacking.
My thread was targeted earlier with flags as well.
Still up though.

Yeah, moderation needs to come down a lot harder on random name calling, picking of fights, and joining threads in an explicit attempt to get them shut down.

It’s an old thread and considered the “forum suggestion” thread. Every time a different one is opened, the mods mention merging them and that there’s already a forum discussion thread. That’s this one.
As long as people don’t entertain those that are here to cause problems, it won’t go anywhere.

I flag trolls when they are trolling. No one tells me who to flag because I simply make my own decision to do it. It isn’t a secret forum cabal when a person is either acting in bad faith or is so ignorant to the topic they are commenting on when most if not all of their posts have been attempts to troll or being repetitive gibberish gets flagged.
Then again, I’m pretty sure if it was a competition a certain hunter and paladin have collected more flags than there are posts in this thread because of the contents of their posts, not because of their names.

Yeah just would be nice if other forum improvement things mentioned in this thread were not derided as ‘derailing’, as seems to happen frequently depending on who posts it.
I was referencing my own posts getting flags on them, I really do hope you don’t mean that all directed at me. I am not trying to troll and I’m trying to be constructive, and not post gibberish. I try to improve upon my posts and how better to respond to people and certain things, if it was directed at me how do you think I an accomplish that?
I know the pala you’re talking about and I can see what you mean in cases, and I think the hunter as well. But I also try to understand where they come from at times because not every body processes or thinks of things in the same way.

maybe This happened to the first Waggle thread after 20k posts and the 2nd was generated could happen to this one: if the OP is reported for some reason; the moderation takes no action on that report; then, the thread auto-soft-deleted 30 days after the report even though the thread locked past 20k posts with the 2nd version already being system-generated.

Don’t you talk, you’ve been attempting in derailing this topic too to try and get it shut down. Especially with your “one down and one to go” comment from the other day.

Yes. The whole “complain about a problem you’ve played an active roll in causing” routine is getting old.

Imagine buying an account and boosting a toon just to try and shut down forum threads on a video game forum.

The oddest thing happened to me.
Few days ago I happened to log into my inactive Dranei cuz I’m gonna switch mains again in TWW and wanted to get a feel for which character I should pick.
Since they were inactive it gave me the option to redo my gear / quests / etc. so I clicked OK and it instantly gave my Dranei the exact mog you’re talking about and I instantly recoiled in pain.
oof but was it 424 ilevel stuff?
