You didn’t giggle when you read my post? I was joking. (Sigh)

They just need to give us back downvotes, without downvotes hiding the post. I suspect that would stop a lot of what people consider “false flagging”
because yea, if I can simply downvote troll OP’s, I’d be less inclined to report them, especially when you consider blizz doesn’t take posting patterns into consideration, and they look at every post as a stanadalone.

The same reason it was removed from Youtube.
I wondered, but it’s so hard to tell around here. People regularly say and do really ridiculous things in complete earnestness.
…this. Give us back the downvote for when we simply disagree with something, with no penalty to the downvoted post, and save the flags for actual trolling and such like.

This is the biggest problem with their moderation IMO. Take the arena forums for example, there are a number of prolific trolls that have been there for years doing the same bit, yet the most they ever get is a rare slap on the wrist because when the mods just look at each individual post on its own it doesn’t always come across as trolling. If they actually looked at posting patterns and punished people according to that, we’d have a lot less trolls on the forum.

This would require them to care about the forums, OP. I follow Ybarra and a few other major heads at Blizzard on twitter. You get far more information out of them on other platforms. These forums see less than 1% of the total player base. Ironically this is the -worst- place to get news from. You see quicker up to date info everywhere else.

Nearly every single thread there is toxic. Your point is well-noted.
That’s correct from what I understand it, they basically go through a ticket queue for flagged posts for ALL forums they moderate which isn’t just these ones.
However, CMs, MVPs, CC’s can get their attention and point at certain posts if they want to as well which is also admitted. Such groups get special protection, despite sometimes breaking said rules too. They’re essentially exempt except in really bad cases.
They’ve admitted they don’t read through threads, just specific posts so they never have context of the conversation and nor are they trained to understand a lot of things such as dog whistles, masked hate speech, etc.
Hey, speak of one of the ones that consistently spreads misinformation, intentionally misgenders, but nothing is ever done because their main ‘friend group’ generally don’t hit each other.
I would remind you that nothing was doctored, simply someone decided to impersonate someone else and continue harassment through other discord servers. You’re from the same group that perpetually spreads misinformation about others, always without evidence.
There’s one right there, right after I just corrected you.
Of course you’re one of the people that will create additional chars/name change etc to avoid ignore too.
That posting char vs this one, which was already on said ignore list.

More disinformation, not surprising.
‘since I retired it’ IE you switched posting chars after the other one got ignored. Whoops.
Not the one that’s done that, sorry. You decided to come in here to try to attack me (as you do) on another char since the last one got put on the list. Lot of projecting going on in your accusation towards me.
Says the one with a special character name (Used to avoid reports, conveniently, in the times of tickets especially. Further, breaks RP naming policy 
)
They do, since they’re not ‘naturally occuring’ in the Warcraft universe, only outside of it. :3
I have not, perhaps you should read the naming article sometime?
Wasn’t the one to start this conversation and attack me, you were. Nice try, though. All I did was defend myself from your continued misinformation, and by your own admission, ongoing harassment (That’s listed under the CoC as using mutliple chars including evading ignore like you’re doing, btw)
Despite the fact both of you have been told more than once, corrected plenty of times but continued to do so.
It was, actually. I corrected you, you continue to say something completely different.
Take your own advice, but you don’t have any left.
Sir or ma’am, need I remind you that you were caught trying to frame someone with doctored evidence from a third party “source”? I don’t think you really need to be pointing fingers…
Sir and or ma’am, I dare you to try and find an example of such that was/is intentional, you won’t find any… as for WHO is doing something, this I care nothing about… like how I agree with Khazgani that this thread is a good idea, despite knowing OP’s post history (from seeing their threads in the past).
I use only one character for browsing the forums, this is just straight up a lie.
I’ve posted on that character ONCE since I retired it (and it was for a comedic gag post), this is my current for posting toon and my reasons for switching were personal RP related. Are you done trying to falsely libel other people’s character to hide your own faults?
I would ignore you, but apparently you enjoy verbally accosting people and their reputations while hiding behind a hidden profile.
Accented names are not against the naming policy, only symbols break that, so you have lied and spread misinformation while accusing someone of doing the same. Good day, now stop harassing me, it does your public image no favor.
It wasn’t misinformation, you actively tried to frame someone on forums and get mad when anyone brings it up, you are also the one who originally kept editing their post to harass me, as can be seen by the edit timer… now please stop with this foolishness and accept the consequences of your actions with a grain of dignity.
I do actually, “Pluck the plank from thine own eye, before ye pluck the splinter from thy brother’s.”. I would also caution you to look into the philosophical term “Hanlon’s razor”.

Is that “Urban Dictionary Bot”?
“The act of not dying from a heat stroke” is a definition of “woke”? O_o
My personal opinion? Blizzard got sick of their white knights getting down-voted into oblivion, they wanted people on both sides of any given discussion to appear similarly supported when in reality, one of them would be well and truly into the minus if dislikes still existed.
They (Blizzard) even said something stupid like we were “abusing” the dislike button, like how the hell do you abuse a dislike button? whether or not someone likes something another person says is purely subjective

Don’t you know? you’re supposed to already know what gender someone identifies as without ever being told.
I’m pretty sure this is false. Unless your definition of “told multiple times” includes "in threads that the person being told was not a part of at the time.

Ah the forum community at its finest.
A thread asking for better moderation devolved into an example of why better moderation is needed.
I salute you!

It’s also why we won’t get it, because Blizzard only knows how to Monkey’s Paw stuff when people ask for it. There’s no evidence to support Blizzard at all being interested in enforcing their own rules properly, only selectively. Else the same group that’s been posting at me in any thread I go in, evading ignores, etc would’ve been gone long, long ago.
