They don't respond anymore as far as I know. Once you dispute other mods look over it and then decide for it to be upheld or not apparently. Although even if that did actually happen mods are obviously going to just agree with the moderation as it takes no effort to do so.

With the new change they never will. Youre not getting a response from a single moderator, but theyre voting if they think youre right or not and if the consensus is that the moderation is fair it just gets upheld.
yeah what b.s. , they never explain. only what the original mod says, that is it. And why don't they show what the vote tally was?

Simply put they don't need to. They made a choice so tough shit. You carrying on the argument or getting hot and bothered over a poll result won't change it.

Pretty much, which is why real justice systems have some semblance of oversight.

This.

People complained that the mods were inconsistent and the mods upholding were biased before... now everyone gets input on things. FWIW its better than tiered disputes because you get resolution in 24 hours as opposed to waiting much longer potentially.

To make up for the lack of feedback in disputes I personally try to leave deletion notes when the mod reasoning might be unclear.

Vote tally shouldnt even matter on your end. If a vote is split close enough then a lead moderator decides if the overturn happens or not. Lead moderators have years of experience and are obviously who we defer to in situations like that.

Why would they bother with that when all that matters is whether it's a win or a loss. How many points you lost by is meaningless.

Mods here are 20-something part-timers who just want to deal with cases quickly for pay and don't want to deal with anything complicated.

That's just how it works and Gamefaqs doesn't have enough money to get better. Don't expect them to come save you here. And sometimes you get modded for something stupid by a mod who barely cares what actually happened...just deal with it and move on.

You'll get blank stares if you even try to explain it. There's a reason they've reduced the amount of times we can dispute stuff...they know it'll never get reversed.

Even with the new system it's still going to be a case of mods wanting to protect their own so they're going to side with each other...much like how refs in sports struggle with correcting their fellow refs on reviews.

Figured it'll chase off all the whiny kids who run to mods any time someone disagrees with them. Would rather we not cater to this and just let board members fire back at trolls.

Always seems like trolls show up, people take shots at the trolls, the trolls flag those posts and those users are removed but the trolls are too subtle to get removed themselves. We punish those who blast the trolls and ignore the trolls themselves. Happens over and over. Not sure why this is productive.

I enjoy forums with no mods however they tend to descend into madness rather quickly. Trolls become the least of the problem as some folk post racist, bigoted things or even worse child porn. Those things should always be dealt with swiftly.

This stuff is easily modded though so I guess modding for this obvious stuff is fine. Otherwise, It'd still be best if folks just mocked the troll until it went away.

Those things should always be dealt with swiftly.

I don't exactly see why text on a screen is such an emergency. Would be nice if people stopped pretending these things are such a big deal. We act like these are so bad but, because we act this way, we signal that it works and that we'll get more of it. The last thing these trolls want is to be ignored and yet it's rarely suggested as a solution.

Start with an apology but then verbally berate them and then say it was my friend who got on my account ect ect. I try to cover all the wrong things to put extra icing on the whole thing that started as a simple trolling attempt
