The mods here have always been useless and just there to feel like they have some power.

I mean this site is backwards trolls get troll and nothing is done. Someone call a troll out for their bs and suddenly you get moderated.

Why you think the likes of gradious wtfpie imadeupooh still around getting away with their dumb shit.

Posts 2, 3, and 5 were all pretty consistent and were consistent with your uphold...
A 180 would be if we just said something and did the opposite...

This was more like a 0... you know, we say something and follow through...


Even though it fits in with none of the examples they mentioned or in the ToU? I posted the link just now.

Examples. Not an exhaustive list.

The rule is that offensive content is not allowed. Wishing harm or death isn't listed but it falls under offensive too.


First of all, wishing for condemnation is not the same as wishing for death. Second, what's the point of having examples then if the rule can mean whatever you want it to mean?

*laughs in math*

What Gamefaqs does: these are some examples but this isn't just limited to these examples only.
Addition is adding two or more numbers together such as "3+3=6" or "14+4=18"
WTF WHY IS -1+4=3?! MATH IS WRONG GAMEFAQS IS WRONG

Examples are there to give rational people an idea of what types if things are against the rules. A comprehensive list would take hundreds of years to read or write, so it isn't going to happen. Hence examples and common sense.


If you want to say it's offensive and call it common sense that's up to you. But just remember the precedent you're setting when other people make similar messages and you don't delete them. I see people get away with a lot worse all the time.

Here's the issue using Ronda Rousey as an example
Ronda = arm breaking
Ronda =/= tanking with her face
Ronda tries tanking with her face and gets knocked the fuck out

So while both arm breaking and tanking with her face are methods used in the UFC, they're not on the same level

That clear it up?

Many people close to him says he exhibits signs of mental instability, several psychologist have said he might be suffering a mental disability like dementia.

But even without that, he called himself it, so it's more like "Trump we're mocking you using your own words you fucking idiot"

I'm not sure ironically posting Trump's "extremely stable genius" quote constitutes offensive.

Okay, see, this is more offensive than saying someone (I assume some kind of criminal) should burn in hell.

This specific insult makes fun of a serious condition.

TC telling a person (who is likely to be bad) to burn in hell, while still dicey, is completely different than taking a massively problematic mental disorder and using it for shock value for a quick chuckle.

Making fun of Trump with his own statements is not offensive.

This is the board that modded me for saying that AOC wanted to abolish ICE. Their bias might be a tad skewed.
