Do they punish disputing moderations? Because I'm not accepting shit and I'm going to have as much fun as possible when I dispute.

The "reward" is that they purge faster from your history

If mods are right, then you proving them wrong with actual evidence is nonsense because how can that which is right be wrong? That is a paradox.

Still, they could do that anyways.
Their word against yours. No real oversight.

Allowing them to clear faster is probably for the best.

the only way to get users to accept moderation is to establish a clearly defined or otherwise precedence-driven moderation system free of subjectivity

good luck

Clearly Allen is just doing this because disputes is prolly the most backed up thing to deal with, and he's sure most disputes are mostly nonsensical. This isn't about what's fair, it's just going by the numbers to be the most efficient. Can't say I blame them and honestly I'm not surprised.

Numbers are one thing, but I also think it had to do with the level of "quality" the responses to the disputes were, how they could contradict each other, etc.

Oh stop it.

Anyways, GameFAQs has long been unfair and inconsistent in their moderation system for years. It's something you have to learn to deal with and look on the bright side on. IGN mods are 10x worst if anyone wants to feel better.

I've gotten a lot of "notify without delete" "moderations" lately, which I've taken to mean "we know you didn't break the rules, but we dislike what you said".
Its setting you up for harsher moderations later for things that normally wouldnt be moderatable. You have a "history" now after all.

I really could not give two shits about people losing karma. Nobody gives a rats ass about karma once theyve built enough up. It is about upholding the message board rules you agreed to when you created your account.

Well, same for those of us that complain about it lol. I visited on Xmas at least once though, but just to post a pic of the little beard ornaments that were in the beard-grooming kit my S/O got for me lol:



I actually had a fun Christmas. I expected it to be depressing and to just spend the whole day on GFAQs but nah I was actually pretty busy and had a great time. Got to hang out with a bunch of younguns (my newborn nephew and his cousins). It was happy.

You mean the vague rules the moderation team is on record for saying they will never write any meaningful rules or explain any of their decisions? The rules where "offensive" is a catch-all for "anything a moderator disagrees with"?

I feel ya but as a low-karma account whos been hit multiple times with completely BS moderations (this is even admitted in the open by at least one moderator, that they were BS), you can perhaps understand my frustration.

Sounds pretty awesome. Got to chill with my family on Christmas day too. Haven't seen most of them since last Christmas. Normally there are more parties and meetups throughout the year but that's calmed down now that all my cousins are too old to have 'birthday parties' (excuses to get the whole family together.)

Yeah Id kinda given up on holidays tbh, and that was amplified when my big brother killed himself a few years ago and then subsequently I watched my dad die miserably from cancer.

But there was new life this year and my sister moved into a new house that is much closer to us (like now its a 15-minute drive to see them instead of a 2-hour one). And the kids loved my beard ornaments and me for some reason. Like Id never even met his one cousin (son of my sisters husbands sister) who is 2 but the little dude loved the fuck out of me right off the bat for some reason and it was really cute lol. ^.^

Ah, remember when a mod locked sales topics and even modded people for posting sales numbers for the Vita? Cause apparently posting facts counts as trolling.
