I’m just going to quote something from Vrakthris in regards to people flagging a thread:
So, yes, people did have every right to report the thread, but no, the thread wasn’t removed due to trolling, Adroi. But the comments that several people were making in the thread were derailing the thread. Which is sort of a problem moderation has to deal with when people go off-topic. Moderation is left with 2 choices: Either clean up the thread, and hope that the pattern doesn’t repeat, or remove the thread, but only remove it so us players can’t see it. Now, the problem with cleaning up the thread, the pattern does repeat.
All of us are good at derailing topics into oblivion, which yes, even I do at times, pretty sure Vrakthris or Orlyia could tell you that. Now, there wasn’t really anything wrong with the thread. We get it, you’re against premades in random battlegrounds, we all have our own opinions towards certain aspect of the game, and we all provide feedback towards certain things within the game.
But some topics does cause some drama, though not so much of your topic compared to a lot of other threads, but it does approach that line. Sometimes, it is better to let moderation close it, than to let it run a course where everyone would be actioned because of people chosing to troll and derail the topics.
