Current Events > Imagine getting put on Warned for saying something that looks racist but isn't.

(+) Yeah! (+)

I'm just a misunderstood intellectual.

The only misunderstanding is what you think "intellectual" means.

At least I dont have to imagine fair next as its there for all to see on TCs forehead.

I'd say it but I don't wanna be warned again ;-;

I got warned once for saying something that looked racist but wasn't.

Keeping it vague to avoid a moderation, but I voiced my dislike of a certain subset of the PUA community that try to attract women by insulting them.

...yeah.

i had that happen before. i didn't word my statement correctly one little word batch could either be non-offensive or moderating. tried to appeal and it didn't work.

I got warned for saying I doubted Nelly raped a woman, and I was vindicated literally the same day when it was revealed she was lying

I basically said something that was making fun of racist people but I guess whoever modded me didn't get it \_()_/

The PC police are rather trigger happy here. Doesn't help that people here are rather thin skinned too.

I got warned once for a mod interpreting a post against white supremacists as being for them. But I checked it over, realized my wording was vague enough that a misinterpretation wasn't too surprising, and the mod actually understood and canceled the warning.

But TC, you already have a reputation; no one's going to buy your claim of innocence without heavy proof.

yeah what did you say? Is there really any other subject that is as heavily modded as saying shit about race?

Yep, same except for a different person.

I got warned not for posting an opinion, but an actual fact. Imagine getting warned for posting a fact.

I haven't come here in over a decade and it sure has become a real **** hole. I guess that's what happens when you have feelings based millennial mods that lack objectiveness.

How old are you?

That's quite common here. If the fact offends someone, you are going on vacation.

---

Every time I see someone saying that citing a fact is the reason why they got in trouble, it turns out they're full of shit.

Facts are fine. The attempted racial implications, which are not factual, and often a poor understanding of what the facts mean, aren't.

yeah racial stuff is the most modded on here

I can pm people what I said word for word if you really wanna know.

keep in mind it was a joke making of people who are racist.

Sure, I'm open to being wrong.

Just post a vague, simplified version here. Holy shit, you guys are so scared of getting moderated over the lamest stuff.

I got warned for explaining a moderation that went on to get overturned, no matter what, you can and will be modded for it, so it's not like he's overblowing the caution

I've explained a moderation plenty of times with no problem. You guys are probably just bad at explaining things.

You either keep it vague and users belittle you and don't believe you, or you say what happened and get modded for reposting a moderation. The only "right" way to do it is to just not say anything, but please, don't let me stop you from being condescending over gfaqs mods

So, basically, you do suck at explaining things. Thanks for confirming.

That's condescending to you? lolkay
If I apologize, will you feel better (and forgive me)?

Both of your responses are absolutely dripping with condescension, there's just no reason to be this egotistical

but by all means, continue, makes you look cool

I know and I'm flattered.
Tbf, it's not exactly a difficult feat to accomplish here if people who are too scared to summarize their moderations are the people I'm completing with lmao

I got warned for spoilers in a thread I made called "ITT: we spoil Avengers Endgame!". The spoiler I posted in the OP, "Scott Lang has a tiny ant-sized dick", was not actually a spoiler. I was off of CE for that entire weekend.

this post has small dick energy, man. if all you're here to do is sling petty posts like this, you really need to find something better with your time. like, do you actually enjoy being on guard and trying to drag people down when you inevitably get into an argument, making comments like this one?

legitimately - this isn't faux concern for trolling or anything, I'm being serious - your time would be better utilised doing something more positive or enjoyable. anyone's time would be better served not stopping to this level of internet discourse. you're better than this.

how am i at fault for just saying there's no reason to be hoity toity and full of yourself over getting modded on gfaqs? there's no reason to feel challenged or fight about stupid shit like this, and me saying that isn't starting an argument; continuing to gas on and on is

what's the big deal

Did TC make reference to the n-word that isn't "the" n-word, but sounds very much like it?

we both know all people do when someone complains about being modded is say "fair, next" or like, "i'm sure this is the full story." people don't give the benefit of the doubt, and i don't understand where the childish barbs like "you're just bad at explaining" come from over it. what made you feel challenged?

Not when an actual explaination is given. Most people usually just outright lie or intentionally omitt key details about what happens until a mod comes in to set it straight, hence why people say those things.

and i don't understand where the childish barbs like "you're just bad at explaining"

Boy, you sure are unnecessarily defensive over this. I wonder why.

I'll never understand what it is about being on the internet that makes dudes hypercombative like this over the smallest stuff. You came into the topic for no reason but to pull typical contrarian shit and basically just spit "no u"

I don't care about whether or not you think I'm "bad at explaining", I'm exhausted with these carbon copy attitudes that people get over

I actually agree with your point, pretty much every post complaining about getting modded is a bunch of shit. It's always someone dancing around the actual reason why they were moderated, and acting all sanctimonious like they didn't have a clue. My response to you concerns the petty squabble you're having right now, which is frankly pretty weak.

Like damn, sometimes forum drama is fun, but I see a post like

and that shit is reaching, hard. I read that, and I can't see how anyone posting it can think they're "winning", or be having fun with the argument they're having. Nitpicking someone's spelling is weak, dude. It doesn't add anything to your argument, it comes across as so pissy and mad.

Initially I threw Kitt under the bus, but he makes a solid point in post 41 so I'm gonna wipe that. mb, got caught up in the response.

Sometimes, the other argument is just petty trolling that's barely a level above your post, but it was your response in this circumstance that just made me wonder why people stoop to these stupid, petty forum squabbles. Like instead of coming across as that sour, there must be at least three things you could do that doesn't invoke the sheer level of small dick energy that comes with saying "well, I know I'm right, and your edits prove this!" before criticising the dude's spelling.

There must be something that's more fulfilling to you than making a post that reads like that. There must be other threads that are more worthwhile to post in than this one, or even petty arguments that offer more room to breathe or even thrive than the one that has you making this petulant response. Seriously - is this shit worth stooping to this shitty, salty level for?

ohhhhh, that's what you meant. i dunno, i mean i just figure if you're gonna act all haughty over internet stuff, at least spell right while you do it

Don't you think that maybe, just maaaybe once someone says you're being condescending, coming back and editing your post with more condescending remarks is kinda just... playing right into their hand? Ignore the spelling thing and I think that point remains.

For someone saying everyone is being hoity toity, you sure are super invested and passionate about something so small.

That's called a lack of self-awareness lmao
