Also I wouldnât trust this community to run a bath, much less a forum

I am offended by your remarks. Are you threatening me? That is totally not a woke thing to do. Why would you wish harm upon others?
Based on the behavior of a bunch of people these past few weeks on both sides of the table I am in favor or more mods.
Every time someone misuses that term, God kills a bus full of orphaned puppies.

TIL, there are not orphaned puppies left.
I absolutely think the flagging system is ridiculous, and completely lazy because they donât have the staffing to properly moderate the forums.
The community should not be doing the work for the moderators. There needs to be moderators that do their job properly.
Have you met the community?

The mods/GMs are far left, soâŚ
Well it sure doesnât feel like anyone else is moderating them latelyâŚ
Includes the freedom to downvote, which on these forums is accomplished by flagging, as lame as that may be.
Freedom goes both ways, not just yours. The guy that doesnât want anything but âmainstream narrativesâ has as much right to that, as you do to âfreedom of speechâ and âopposing viewpointsâ.
You let the community self-police these entire forums, then youâre going to have to deal with the guy exactly opposite you that has as much right and âfreedomâ as you do to what you want.
âFreedom of speechâ, by the way, isnât guaranteed unilaterally everywhere here in America, despite 'Murican belief that it is. Congress cannot make laws abridging the freedom of speech. That is all. Private entities may do as they see fit, including limiting speech to whatever they see fit on their private platform.
if the community is a lvl 3 or a new rank lvl 4 with no vacations within lets say 2-5 years of creating an account? then this would be a good idea
Put me in, coach!
Actually funnily enough, Iâve now been here long enough to know that the mods have actually scaled back their moderation of GD. Outside of the CS forum, the mods are taking a much more hands off approach.
Iâd love ot of the community was given reign to moderate things OP.
I have always felt like one of blizzâs biggest failings was turning into a woke helicopter parent. Their playerbase is made up almost entirely of adult pc gamers, who donât want or need to be forcefed ethics from their derelict PR department.
Thatâs always been the caseâŚbut in light of their recent whoops #metoo crap, yeah, they should back off and just let the adults talk to each other, unfettered.
Private venues have the right to enforce their own rules of behavior. Thatâs why we have this concept of ⌠âprivate propertyâ.
Are you some sort of Commie?
They already are. I made a light hearted and well constructed post about having to smash my roomate spider Robert and was banished to the shadow realm for it.
People are way too quick with the flag post button nowadays. Of course it doesnât help when important features like ignore user are needlessly locked behind post count and trust level.

Is this a question?
Take a look at how many forum threads have been flagged lately just because the community didnât agree with what someone was saying.
Itâs hilarious to me how people use the phrase âfreedom of speechâ and then turn around to silence other people.
Thatâs a hard no on community-moderated forums for me, unless we want the forums to go to crap faster than it already has.

The moderation decisions are certainly less than uniform.
