arguing or discussing with a mod online who will always gets you needed is one of my rules.

Voice to text is still not quite where it should be, is it? :D

Correct. I type about 130 wpm on my computer, on my phone about 3 wpm so voice to text takes over.

Either my thumbs have gotten bigger or they made the buttons on the phone smaller because I stopped typing into my phone a long time ago.

I get that.  You have missed my point.  IF your mods make stupid calls then you should expect them to be challenged.  If challenging stupidity gets you muted because the stupidity comes from a mod then you should expect disgruntled players.

So, if the mods are going to tell us that non game related chat is not allowed, then enforce that.  Don't do it sometimes and not others.

I'm only around 90, but my brain isn't usually much quicker.  I would pay a fair bit for an Android phone that had a slide-out physical keyboard like my old blackberry.  I hate touchscreens with the fury of 1000 suns.

I used to love the full keyboard phones. Had an LG enV, then enV Touch. Last keyboard phone was an LG Ally, my first Android phone but vastly underpowered hardware wise. After that it was all slab touchscreen phones. :(

Mods seriously just gave me a two hour mute for asking people to stop giving me constant crap he does NOT mute them cause theyre clearly his teammates and then mutes me for trying to stop it. The bias is unbelievable and im simply done with it, on the line of unsubscribing at this point…

How long was your mute for the other night when you called me a racists redneck Trump supporter and then called the moderator a avacado when he asked you to calm down?

You are the problem, not the mods

I get that. 

Obviously, you don't because you were complaining that a mod muted you because you argued with them.

Mods have not been overreacting,

If, was, should, could. Hypotheticals with no details.

We have a a cpl usual suspects who constantly troll politics over and over. SHOULD have been muted last night, that I know of they were not, so where is the overreaction? Go to tik tok for  the baby seal garbage.

Maybe some should look in a mirror for who is out of line.

maybe, just maybe, if people were polite and talked normally and civilized, they wouldn't get muted? based on that screen shot and some of the responses and who's responding, im just not surprised. heres one to keep in the back of your head. you reap what you sow. if you dont know what that means. figure it out.

And not preferentially, based on whether the player engaged in such activity is someone you like or dislike.

I was on the other night, over the past weekend, not on much anymore but definitely remember tyke complying about something over and over, it was annoying , peeps threatened to report him but he kept going on, then it went quiet so assumed he got muted.

Guess you can learn the hard way or the easy way, it's all up to you.
