TopicShould it be a moddable offense to claim trump is still president

I was reminded earlier of a discord group I had been invited to monitor

This discord was....conservative to say the least, and shortly after 1/6, an announcement was made that at the behest of discord higher ups, discussions arguing that Trump was rightfully president were banned.

I say all that to ask, doesn't gamefaqs have a point in their TOS about posting blatantly false information?

Trump's claim that election was rigged and he was the rightful winner has not been accepted by any legit member of our political community or government. Should users who claim otherwise be subjected to moderations/suspensions, or will it require another 1/6?

For the record, I dont think the moderation staff is some cartoony group of frats bros high fiving each other and complaining about "whiny liberals" or whatever

what the staff don't seem to understand is that is doenst have to rise to that level to potentially have unintentional bias or be problematic

The harassment argument is absolutely bullshit and a smokescreen. Any serious harassment will get a user banned off this site. What mods are more afraid of is having to justify their actions. That's why they rally against the idea of even having moderations tagged with a unique anonymous user ID. Because even that small bit of information would be too telling of mod fuckups and revenge deletions.

Nah, this site ain't that serious to have people coming after you in your regular life, so in that respect, I understand the need for anonymity

I'm not sure where you're seeing hostility or mockery out of our responses to you about this subject. All I am seeing is someone who is not satisfied with our answer, and is trying to imply that not being able to give you specific demographic breakdowns of the mod staff down to their race/gender/nationality/sexuality/etc means the mod staff is inherently biased. No answer we give you is going to satisfy your wants, or your goalposts will move to find something else to complain about.

I'm sure you'd have said that no matter what my post said. =P

This is literally the type of defensiveness I'm talking about.

You took "users might want to know who regulates discussions on sensitive topics" and turned it into

"trying to imply that not being able to give you specific demographic breakdowns of the mod staff down to their race/gender/nationality/sexuality/etc means the mod staff is inherently biased."

This is intellectual dishonesty at *best*

the concept of a known well rounded group of staff, especially ones tasked with enforcement is understood in just about every atmosphere. Why you're so aggressive about it is odd

Considering you've been told multiple times that there are women, minority, and transgender moderators, yet you still continue to parrot that narrative, I don't think you'll be satisfied with anything that's said here.

You understand why "just take our word for it" might be met with skepticism? Why is this particular topic consistently met with hostility/mockery from the staff? It's very weird to be this defensive in a position of authority, particularly in an arena of such little consequence as an internet message board

Considering every user and moderator has a right to privacy and is not required to disclose personal details like that because this is just a video game site, no, that information is not readily available for users, moderators, or administrators.

Well then you cant be surprised when people get upset about anonymity in moderator judgement, especially when it comes to sensitive subjects like I mentioned earlier.

If you're gonna foster an atmosphere that allows users to argue when a person of color was killed by the police deserved it, why transgender discrimination is valid in sports, why MAGA is great etc. , theres gonna be blowback from people who want to know who regulate these discussions and are met with nothing (at best) and mockery (at worst)

I mean, you all let a MAGA board operate until an insurrection occurred on the Capitol. Knowing the makeup of the who decided to allow that board to operate for as long as it did is relevant info in my opinion

Or are you so simple you think all art is created equally

This past weekend of playoff sports saw largely full houses. From people crowding Phil Mickelson, to nearly full arenas at NBA, the only reason we are back to any sense of normalcy is because millions of Americans endured shivers, aches and pains as an after effect of taking a vaccine so a very small, entitled part of the population could have their cake and eat it too

It annoyed me to see people in those crowds who were maskless and you knew didnt get vaccinated
