I wouldnt worry too much about what Shock says

I mean, I didn't realize it was a meme if that's the point you're trying to make.

That's what happens when you rush into a topic butt first because you think it's a chance for you to soapbox about the moderation system.

Everyone else here is enjoying the meme.

But I have a feeling that no matter what I say at this point, you all are seeing blood in the water and have received permission to attack without fear of moderation. Just another example of the hypocrisy.

"Unfortunate" doesn't begin to describe this site, moderations rewards blind luck and nothing else, I am beyond convinced at this point. After getting completely tooled by scheduling with the mods changing times on me last minute and refusing to provide confirmation prior to the day of the dispute, losing this way somehow felt even worse than I had thought possible. My preparation was superior, my dispute was superior, and I lost, so I don't see a reason to continue engaging in an activity where what is within my control is overwhelmingly outweighed by what is not. I am done with this websight, and you won't get a fond farewell. This community is infected to its roots with a degenerative disease that grows stronger over time but stops short of killing its host. Topics used to have a competitive spirit at their heart, this has been transplanted and replaced with an artificial organ that feeds on vitriol and mockery from insecure little boys that heckle by the sidelines and tear each other to shreds over scraps of attention. The environment we fostered has trapped us all like this in a vicious cycle, and escaping it requires acceptance of the harshest reality we all scramble to explain away, that none of the countless straining efforts we put ourselves through here will ever amount to one single shining glimmer of significance. I would make this the end, but Invincible is still ongoing, and I would never leave so many great friends out to dry, so I'll suffer through a few more topics for them. One last thing before I leave you all to react with disdain, ridicule, and self-righteous fervor, before you do everything in your power to minimize my words and thoughts, box them up and shove them to some cobwebbed corner of your memory, and hope they disappear forever as a stain on your finite time ground to dust. From this moment on, nothing you say matters to me. The foulest insults you hurl with intent to wound will calmly settle at the earth before my feet, and the venom you spit will bring all the pain of a warm summer breeze. You are less than anything you can conceive, while I carry on, brimming with joy distilled from detachment.

It's not because of your inability to accept fault coupled with your overwhelming desire to complain.

Certainly not.

I've admitted I didn't know it was a meme twice now.

There were two parts to that sentence.

No amount of processing this topic was going to give me the knowledge that it was a meme.

Considering the person quoted isn't a mod, no, it's not "rules for thee and not for me". Neither politeness nor decorum are not required on this site. Allow me to demonstrate.

Do you still block everyone who points out that your defenses on how it's okay to vote republican make absolutely no sense when held against reality, or have the events of the past ~3 years finally broken you out of your mindfunk and allowed you to see what literally everyone you blocked told you was, in fact, true?

No amount of processing this topic was going to give me the knowledge that it was a meme. I simply don't care enough to try to learn all those nonsense things the perpetually online have learned. Although, after it was pointed out I did get a chuckle at the OP's account name.

I know this is a copypasta, but moderating here is in fact a shitshow. I got modded the other day for agreeing with someone that being okay with Nazis means the Republican Party is supporting Nazis. I got modded for abusive behavior. For agreeing with the person I replied to. It was clear the mod just did not fucking read. And the appeal was just never touched by anyone. I got warned for two days for breaking zero rules, unless theres some new rule that you cant call the Republican Party bad in a political topic.

this is far from the most ridiculous moderation of course, just the most recent one.

on the other hand, you have people being fairly moderated for saying stupid bigot shit (sometimes. Sometimes they get moderated) and acting like theyre being persecuted for being saints. Its incredibly silly, this place. Its a crapshoot full of ridiculous people.

Lmao the conservative snowflake victim complex is real.

It'll be OK little buddy.

you can't say all Republicans are Nazis

but you can point out that many of their supporters and voters are

It's true.

But nothing is worse than Steam's mods. I'm convinced they're just bots that autoban everyone who has been marked and auto replies to contest wirh a generic message aboit che king to make sure the moderation wad applied properly.

It is especially wild since they go around marking everyone who disagrees with them and like 10 percent of the time it works for no good reason.

It's funny because I never get actioned on Steam. But, Publishers have a choice on whether they moderate their own forums or let Steam moderate them. Maybe your mileage is different because of the specific game you're posting on.

Marking?

Are you.. new? Reporting. Marking. Tattling.

Besides the one I did today, I haven't marked anyone in ... ever? I don't use the report button as a dislike button like you all do. I will block people, which has been pointed out. But like... I don't think I have to defend that. I don't even think many of you like each other most of the time from what I read. I'm not here to constantly have arguments all the time.

I usually avoid this board. I just saw a chance to bash the moderation and jumped on it.

Gotta love the posters using AI while other posters respond seriously lol.

Also for the serious posters- mark it like the mods always recommend. I bet nothing will happen tho

Go read my edit bud.

These mods are extremely biased, it's a losing battle my friend. All we can do is fight for what is right and just. We are martyrs.

Oh shut the fuck up lmao.

We are martyrs.

This is always the best response they have.

Who is they?

That's because it's the only response you're worth.
