This subject has not only been over-talked, some lack the ability to retain and recall.
There are human moderators and an automated moderator that filters words not allowed (like swear words) and known acronyms of those words. Trying to find work-arounds just to post those banned words is on you. It's the same as typing the actual word.
Many trigger the auto-moderator and blame a human moderator.
A human moderator usually steps in on trolling for flame wars , or people scrolling (consume) the text buffer with an ongoing repeat rants. This is a rudeness to the rest who would like to get their own messages through. You don't have to repeat the same rant 20 times until someone acknowledges it and joins the fame war. Its trolling for a responses to battle on. Get a grip.
AGAIN, and yet AGAIN, the very players (or former players) complaining about mods on bbs I have personally witnessed them INTENTIONALLY pushing the limits to see what they can get away with, OR troll the mods until they get muted so they can complain how bad the mods are. Here's a clue, grow up, life is not all about you. Get over yourself. If you get what you troll for then you have no point at all.
Some don't like rules?
Too bad. Everything you do and places you go have rules. You can't run stop signs, you can't drive drunk, you can't swim naked in a public pool, your parents have rules to grew up on, there are countless laws. You cannot post about politics or swear on almost ANY game board. This is life, you do not rule the world, you never will. You live in your own head to think so. You do not have the right to cage someone and force them you listen to your temper fits or delirium.
It comes down to these people have problems with all authority everywhere they go and have superiority complexes. If you walk into a restaurant, library, sometimes even a bar, and carry on this way you are shown the door. The players are customers, you do not harass customers. Customers are our revenue.
Consider AH 200 and bbs G rated. This is so we can have younger players, this is not your adult only porn site.
All that crap said, no business wants to lose a customer unless they are pushed to the limits. To do so is loss of revenue that supports the game. It's the last thing they want to do.
Emotions run high. Taunting is accepted and encouraged, losing your mid over it is not.
Pull your pants up and stop acting the fool. Slowly back away from the bottle and make no fast moves.
This will be repeated in 3 days after this thread closes and another whiner opens another. So just copy and paste.
I'm due for my daily acid bath. Ick!
