Moderation of the Forums

Let’s see we have a thread about a forbidden topic but it’s ok because everyone is off topic :rofl:

This is actually a very on-topic post.

@ISD_Dorrim_Barstorlode Can an ISD chime in with their stance on forum ban evasion?

Why are you asking the ISD to offer their opinion on something that was removed from the rules with the introduction of F2P? Curiosity?

Because I honestly don’t know. I stopped playing due to RL stuff literally a week before F2P came out.

I would assume that evasion is officially against the rules, however.

You’re here now, so there’s no excuse for not bothering to look it up.

Yeah. You know what assuming does.

I tried - I can’t find an extensive list of forum rules, just the “community guidelines”, which is very short (just got that badge).

There was an entire thread on it the last time some butthurt forum douche tried to weaponize it.

Ima really annoyed by this flagging thing on the forums. A troll step in, drop the bomb and when I throw it back … I’m flagged. How is that even?

Well, just in the last couple of posts, you’ve called multiple people “retards” and asked someone if you could “■■■■ them.”

Do you seriously not understand why your posts get hidden?

If you flag any of my posts as a bad post, I will step back and get a rest. But you are a civilized person and probably will not understand what Im talking about. Is about to fight back the trolls, not people like you.

If you want to “fight back the trolls,” write some logical arguments against them, or at least post some response memes. You don’t do it by making fun of what is essentially a disability, or by sexually harassing someone.

Try to avoid insulting players by calling them “retarded” and make your post won’t be flagged? Iono, just a thought.

Again. If any of you normal people got offended (not sure why as it was NOT pointed toward you), I apologize.

I will NOT apologize in any circumstances toward a James gang. Never. I prefer a flag.

This isn’t an apology, btw.

Pretty sure I read earlier in this thread where someone was told by developers and other higher ups that calling someone a retard in the forum was just fine and dandy. Boys being boys, and all that.

Just to be clear, in the Arena thread this player said this

I saw another post where this same player said that they were developing two players and now they are saying they have not played since F2P.

So when I accused this player of trolling, I feel rather vindicated.

Sure, I haven’t seen the post, but I don’t care enough to go back through it all. “Boys being boys” perpetuates notions of toxic masculinity and I’m disappointed if that were the case, but it’s not my forums, so whatever.

I came back at the start of the year, right around the time we got quarantined. So I’ve been playing for half a year now. I stopped playing (most games, not just this one) around summer 2016.

So you are playing the forums with no play interest in the game. When I take breaks I don’t go on the forums. Seriously…

EDIT - I was a bit miffed and posted before fully reading your reply . So you started playing again OK, well at least that is better.

No, two of my other characters received most of my focus during the past few months.

I am actually planning to return to this one quite shortly, so if any forum enemies want to have a go at me, I’ll be launching a citadel of some sort soon, and will be war-eligible (god, the new system is so r…stupid).
