Why are you acting like conservatives don't insult people?

Why are you acting like you yourself have never insulted people?


Probably because I have no issue having a conversation without insulting people, unlike most of my fan club.

New flaming rule?

*Goes to Annoucnements*

* Flaming will no longer be defined by how "bad" the flame is. If you are name calling, you will be moderated for flaming if reported (unless it's very clearly in jest). "Light flames" will no longer be a thing. No name calling, period. We will generally start with NWD on flames unless you're using seriously offensive flames in which case you'll probably be moderated for Offensive instead anyway.

That's pathetic, lmao.

No, you don't get to decide what is an insult to someone and what isn't. For instance, you may call me a SJW and I brush it off and say whatever. If you call someone else that, they may take offense that you are incorrectly labeling them.

This new moderation rule is actually the most SJW thing I've ever seen on Gamefaqs. And that's saying something. It's a very slippery slope to be on because as they said there is no distinguishing between flaming and 'light flaming'. If someone is insulted at any point by what you type, you could be modded over it going off of this new ToS. That's pretty scary, but, yay safe space?

It's not always an emotional response. Sometimes a post is so nonsensical that it doesnt really deserve anything but an insult.

However, this rule change is a good thing. Those posts are better left ignored than insulted, maybe that will happen now.

Also if you call a fat poster fat...its true...but still moddable

I can say "that's a racist thing to post'' and that's not the same as "you're racist"

It's like saying "cake is fattening" versus "you're fat because you eat cake"

Like I said. I liked the TOS. I didn't like how it was unevenly enforced.

This is really the mods fault for being so biased and abusing their power.

Because the wording of the rule is very vague. If you tell someone to stop acting like a child is that a moddable offense now? Who's to say how hurt or offended said person would be over that. Maybe you brush it off, maybe it ruins your day.

Plus you are trusting people to not abuse the reporting option simply because they don't like a term you used in your post.

I did right before the new year, but that was a stupid moderation for saying the media slurped Obama when he said dumb things on Twitter. I would have appealed it, and pretty sure it would have been overturned, by I was leaving for vacation the day after and didn't feel like dealing with it. That's the only moderation on my account, so pretty much everything NadYobWoc is asserting is wrong.

This is the problem with the words game. Some people REALLY want to believe their opposition is racist because it's the only way to defend their side of the argument, but they're not using racist words, so instead they take a non-racist word they ARE using, claim it's a substitution for a racist word, and then accuse you of racism.

I'm sure some people do, but you don't get to automatically assume someone using that word is racist because they used the word.
