Because this place doesn't operate on a community rule like that.

Why not though? Shouldn't it??


No it shouldn't. People shouldn't get banned from here just because people don't like them.

Ok but shouldn't people get banned from here for being evil?? :o

The guy that posted it is probably banned. In a topic not about Gavi it would have been fine (wiki pages like that are posted all the time with mods even discussing it). It pretty much confirms they are protecting him.

So if I made a poll topic saying "Should I suspend Fecundity" and the majority votes yes, you're okay with being suspended?

No it just kind of seems like you guys do the bare minimum to keep bad ppl off the forums you're supposed to be policing :t

Isn't the point of being a forum mod sposed to be keeping a safe and positive community and doesn't letting users like Gavi on here kind of run against that? :o

I don't think It's good that you guys only seem to want to mod or ban ppl for crossing bright lines, maybe you should allow a little subjectivity in. :t

I would imagine public perception could/should play a role. The social media outrage machine could cause some problems if word spread that a guy like him is a welcome part of this community, which might not matter if it were a privately owned website but it's owned by a high profile corporation.

Ummm yes? I feel like there's a pretty good reason people have to be repulsed by Gavi with evidence to back it up and if it's pretty clear someone is a force for bad on a message board someone should step in and ban them regardless of whether they crossed any bright lines. That's how places like SA do it and it keeps their boards super clean. :t

GameFAQs has is a beacon of moral forum moderation, where suicidal people in need of help get insta-banned and real life racists and sexual predators have lease to keep posting. I don't know how mods like Error don't have more cognitive dissonance over it.

Doesn't happen. Their accounts get blocked to prevent people from egging them on and they get sent information about how to get help for suicidal thoughts.

Simply being a racist isn't against the rules. Posting something racist is. If someone is using GameFAQs to sexually harass or threaten users they also get moderated. I'm not sure what you exactly want people to do here. Force a background check on every user and ban them if it doesn't come back clean? We just moderate messages dude, we are not the internet/world police.

I'm saying because it's a paid private forum they can do what they want with it. You want it to be like that here, then get ready to pay for it. It's not a knock on SA whatsoever.

Yeah but why does being a free public forum mean dis website has to be so loose and tolerant of negative posters??? I get you and Error are saying "That's what the rules here are" but have you ever asked yourself why the rules are that way, or if they shouldn't be harsher?

If you're banned from SA, you don't get to come back. That's the difference between that place and GameFAQs.

If you make another account, you won't get banned immediately, but you will as soon as the moderators figure out who you are.

No, that's posting something racist. That's against the rules. Simply being racist and not posting racist stuff isn't a problem.

The rules are lighter because your userbase skews white and male and therefore they don't particularly care about things that are offensive to people who are different than them. Instead of creating a good forum with good rules and good protections SBAllen outsourced moral decision-making to user opinion polls.

What does SBAllen have to do with CBS legal? He doesn't own the site, he just runs it. He doesn't exactly have free reign over the rules iirc
