Let’s be honest, “light moderation” is a fancy term for “let’s ban few specific individuals simply because we don’t like them”. Like corrupt politicians when they make some fancy sounding laws with a sole purpose to enable them exploit something they desire.
It is funny that some of you, unlike me, have been actually braking the forum rules (sock accounts, direct insults etc.). And the most most hilarious thing is that, of all people, a well-known troll was nominated as a potential moderator. 😄
Aside from whatever issue there was over collectibles, there is some truth in this. We do have some members, since I’ve been a member here, that can clutter up some of the project threads with off-topic remarks and the like, and they seem to get a wider birth than say someone people may have ganged up on.
I think another example of something that speaks poorly about things here … is that the TeamNegative1 thread is still in the announcements. Since the matter was decided upon there is no good reason I can see for it to remain … it seems almost childish … like the site is still sticking it’s proverbial tongue at people because somehow it “destroyed the most hated team of people” on the Internet.
If the rules are gonna be lax for some, they should be lax for all. I am for the moderation of off-topic until we can at least learn to better moderate ourselves equally within the boundaries already laid out by the rules that are in place now.
