This is a new account I'm playing on. I've been playing off and on since roughly.2012.
Once again, everything you said is steeped in the inability to try and see the other side of the argument.
Me telling you your logic is flawed may seem offensive to you, but it's just accurate. I explained why I said it, as using the "slippery slope" argument offers nothing to the discussion. It's based on complete conjecture. It's completely "adult" to tell you your logic is flawed when this is clearly a debate about who is or isn't correct about something. What would you prefer me to say? Undoubtably, that's the kind of comment that would be removed - and I'm saying that's ridiculous.
And there it is: "What you see as floored, has worked fine for many years, but as you seem to know better, please enlighten us all on your grasp of moderation, what sites do you moderate on?". This is what I'm referred to by "flawed logic". Because I'm not a moderator means I'm not allowed to criticise/ my opinion has no weight? I've never been a lot of things - I'm still allowed an opinion. Especially in this case, considering I pay for premium. I pay for a service, therefore I'm at liberty to give my opinion on how it's run.
I'm going to assume you're right that the poor forum activity is due to reduced numbers, as you say you know it for a fact. I'm not sure how you're able to quantify the impact of poor moderation. Please try and explain that a little more if you can.
Just unbelievable. You criticise my tone as not being adult, when I've made a completely understandable observation and said nothing rude; then you say "tell us how you would have the rules, you know because you know best."
Condescending, childish and adds nothing the argument. I did not frame my responses in this way.
Also, I already said the rules should be loosened to allow comments and threads considered to be slightly edgy. Don't remove every comment that might offend someone.
Maybe I will go to I/D, but is there any point? Probably not.
Obviously, you guys make the rules, and you guys decide how to enforce them or change them. So, you're clearly not going to do anything. So the forum will stay the same. Dead.
