this is a comedy website

Fine, then let bad jokes slide.

It's a "comedy website" when it suits their purposes. When someone makes a joke they don't like, sorry bout your account.

They say they don't probate or ban for jokes but they do.

If they're gonna censor then let people know for what.

No racist jokes? cool. No misogynist jokes,? Whatever. No gender slider jokes? Your rules. No "mod sass"? Bullshit but okay.

Just let people know.

I'm not talking of any one specific instance, but getting a probation on football days is big for people who enjoy game day threads.

Keep slurping that mod cock though.

Tell us what "bad posts" are and why. Let people know what they can and cannot post.

Be consistent.

This is a website that people have paid for. If you complained to Netflix or some service and got a response of
"You're a bad customer " or "LoL u gay" it would be unacceptable.

Now because you are unpaid janitors doesn't mean you shouldn't try to make the place better, but explain why you ban somebody, not just "Bad Posting"

If you don't want people to use certain words, fine make rules and stand by them. Don't ban for jokes you don't find funny or posters who you disagree with or annoy you and your posting buddies.

I like reading the forums, but they used to be better.

Ready to be ignored and/or mocked.

Bout to head out but if Ralp or another mod could address this post without mockery I'd be impressed.

Merry Christmas Something Awful forum.

Think of the type of poster that comes into an internet forum thread about Mod-Feedback to white knight the mods over a 24 hour probation given under questionable circumstances.

It's sort of implied that I think this isn't as bad as a white-knighter because a) why would I ask you to think about the white knighter? and b) it's me!



I dunno I kinda think if you're gonna pay for forum access and the mods are gonna arbitrarily probate people (in gameday threads, jesus) that it doesn't really add up.

Btw perhaps this one probation is indicative of a larger problem? I dunno just spitballing here but I'd love to hear more of your thoughts.

(especially in light of the OP which has been forgotten by many folks, including some mods)

I had a recent bullshit probation as well, and it was a whole week too. Hoping to have my essay in it done by Christmas morning.

Can you share other examples this probation is indicative of? Cause by and large, modding on TFF has scaled back immensely following the 30 page drama in the last topic before the season started.

it came when there was a lot of activity in qcs while a number of bad mods were being rooted out since new threads were made about a mod fairly often. a couple of GBS posters picked up the techniques previously used and now debate stupid poo poo nobody gives a crap about, because they want justice for a day probation instead of trying to get the pedophile copypasta mod removed or asking why gunky junket, valeyard, and tehloki aren't probated for 100,000 hours
