this site has become an alt right hellhole

you literally get modded for so much as pointing out user's avatars

it's ridiculous

Shut the fuck up

ok tell me your reason why you think the mods are so sensitive about pointing out rightist's avatars

Whats the point of pointing out ones avatar? Unless its for trolling

do you think it's just a coincidence that many if not most of the (alt)rightists on this site have little girl avatars?

Why'd that AssTank comment get moderated? He's admitted to his fear of black people several times before. Is it against the rules to mention the mods own comments, similar to how its moddable to mention the former admins racist comments regarding cultural differences?

wait, so it's real...there's really someone like that on the staff

pathetic

This place is no stranger to racist mods. There was another mod that kept making racist comments about black women, and was only demodded cause he kept flaming people. There was another time when they had another guy suspended cause all he was doing was making topics about news articles detailing how the alt-right kept on harassing Jewish and black people, and about how they kept on making publicly detailed plans on hurting people. They called it concern trolling.

Moderation on this board is really bad, and in a way that I've never really seen before in other places. I regularly see people being unceasingly racist/homophobic/transphoic/whatever but as long as you don't outright come and ask for all minorities to be gunned down you will have nothing to befall you. You have people who make threads insulting large groups of people almost exclusively, many of which are clearly on the board posting too, but as long as no names are given it's cool

But the second you make an innocuous insult with any sort of direction you get moderated (or tease pokemon fans, i guess they're a protected class). It's the most hilariously dumb approach that I think I've ever seen and once you learn even a modicum of the things that set mods off it's hilariously easy to dance around on the borderline and never get touched.

Not that I expect it to change anytime soon, and I don't really care if it does either way. There's way more important stuff in life to get worked up about than moderation on an ancient video game website. I just think it's funny.

It's not hard to have a discussion about things and express your opinions without breaking the rules... Unless your opinion is inherently offensive such as calling for a genocide of people with a specific ideology.

Are people allowed to expressly support the alt-right on this site?

These "alt-right is infesting this site" bitching topics pop up every week now, and the only people I ever see seriously making this claim are the users who can't ever defend their arguments in discussion topics and have to resort to crying racism all the time.

If you guys want a left-leaning safe space, there are plenty of other sites more accepting of your views.

Indeed. It doesn't help that almost no one in this topic actually knows what alt-right means either, they just think it's a new way to insult someone without immediately getting moderated like they would for using their old posting style.

Thanks. Having been disconnected from the moderation system for so long, it's tough for me to gauge how that would change how moderators would operate now compared to then. Also, as someone who just... doesn't get modded much, I guess it's not really all that applicable.

That said, Allen said I'm welcome back anytime. That was eight years ago, of course. Am I really that curious to see how things changed? >_>

I dunno, man. The only real criticism I have is that now you can't have an opinion unless it's absolutely banal and surface level. You can't even banter with someone, anymore. The flaming change was a joke, and I have nothing but scorn for all the users that voluntarily wished for the site to be completely bleached and thoroughly defanged.

I don't feel much has changed for me when it comes to the flaming rule since it isn't something that hits me often and you should be attacking the argument rather than the poster.

The biggest change I do feel is the relaxation of the offensive rule. What would have been a 3kl in the past now starts as an NKL on a clean history. That is a welcome change for users who posts something politically incorrect (in the eyes of the mods) once in a while.

There are definitely certain flaming situations that are ridiculous under the new rule, such as not being able to call a troll a troll. They seem to have changed it in such a way though that it's not outright draconian so idk. I haven't found it worth arguing with site staff over.
