"Mods deleted my genius post where I called someone a loser Sony fanboy troll. Waaah. It was such a great post too, but those Sony-loving mods won't let me speak the truth!"

You are literally no different.

Is it true that mods "stealth edit" people's posts? Is it also true that Xbox gamers aren't welcome here?
Not sure on the first part, I haven't experienced it anyway. But gamers of all kinds are welcome here. Just don't be a mentally stunted console warrior. There is a difference between having a preference to a particular platform and warring for that platform.

You don’t need warnings for us to lose patience on a conspiracy complex.

We don’t care what brand one prefers- It’s all how they conducts themselves.
Why don’t you respond to pm’s? What point is there in contacting mods directly if the never respond?

Edit: I get you might think I deserved a punishment but even an acknowledgement might be nice.

No community has more of a persecution complex than the gaming community.

If ANYONE is gonna come with accusations of mods deleting posts or changing unnecessary posts based on fanboyism.....

Otherwise STFU

Because 99% it's most fanatical fanboys on the site (of any console) making these claims. I don't know about the OP personally, but most of the time that is the case.

Have you PMed me? I don’t see any PMs from you.

Edit: I see them now, I tend not to respond to revenge vendettas when you’ve been actioned yourself. It’s high school or lower type tattle tailing. Just because you’ve been actioned doesn’t mean they haven’t been as well.

Most actions we don’t put on blast- only the most blatant that need a thread course correction.

That very well may have been the case but I don’t think so. I certainly didn’t experience that.

You've had an account since 2020, so bullshit, yes you did and if you didn't notice then stop spreading your uninformed opinion about how GAF is going resetera.

So instead of just not posting you decide to make a bitch thread? You could just….leave? Nothing is stopping you other than your fragile ego.

I don't get it. I lurked back then and GAF is nowhere near ResetEra levels then or now. It felt more like it was leaning too much into 4Chan territory back in 2020, and now feels more natural/neutral. There has been nothing that indicates massive abuse of moderation power, constant doxxing, harassment, or other idiocy that is indicative of reeeeee types.

Yeah, but being from Nova Scotia, you can just throw a rock in any direction and there is a good chance you will hit the home of somebody who's hilarious, drunk, and behaving like that show is actually real life.

It's our nature.
True true, lol. Know of a few places like that here in the States as well.

They weren’t revenge vendettas. I asked why I was banned for being off topic by responding to an off topic post. Yet that post wasn’t. I wasn’t trying to get them in trouble.
The fact you didn’t even see my posts until months later and then dismiss them is ridiculous.

I refreshed my memory with it. It was ignored since you don’t know the action taken on the other user you were throwing under the bus due to your own action.

I’m not going to discuss other users with someone who was actioned, especially if I wasn’t the one that did the action.

Imagine being a member of community for 20 years and just leaving.
Show some empathy. This forum is big presence in someone’s interactions and daily routine.
It might be a joke to you but people treat this seriously. It’s not just a news site to some. There is a reason I argue with people sometimes. That’s because I care. I care about gaming. It’s a huge part of my life.

If you can do something for this long and just let it go? You lack the human inside you.

Edit: and also sometimes when I report trolls. Mods just answer “deal with it” or “don’t cry”. That’s almost more offensive than what I report… I get easily baited so I guess it’s my fault too

If youre passionate about a topic and forum so much, you wouldnt just leave it after putting 20yrs of your life into it.

So yeah....he can leave without being a bitch about it since it obviously doesnt matter THAT much

Well to be fair, it's just a video game forum. It sounds like the OP feels like Xbox fans are getting brunt of it and that's part of being pissed. Who cares.

I can understand someone in a forum getting peeved that he's getting plastered with personal insults and nobody is doing anything about it. But I dont think GAF is like that. You get some trolling and ribbing, but lets not pretend here GAF is a free for all of stupidity and callous remarks aimed at every person's head.

As for reporting trolls, who cares. I've been on this board part of all the fun back and forth banter and I think I have reported to mods once. And I've never put someone on ignore either. I dont even remember what the report even was. And looking back right now, I think it was petty even to report that one incident.

I've had a handful of warnings over the years and I think it was fair. The only one I think was unfair (which I didn't even bother replying back since it was I think a 2 pt warning which I brushed off) was one time there was a video upload thread and I was posting YT trailers like everyone else. I posted two clips in one post. Then I found some more good ones and did a second post with I think two posts. I got a warning by a mod saying I was spamming the thread. I didnt feel like editing the post to make it one 4 video post, so I did two separate ones. Who cares.

Edit: I looked back at my warning. Actually it seems legit. I actually did 5 rapid fire posts. I thought I did two. I guess that mod preferred if I compiled it into one or two posts. Fair enough.

I had a post edited because I called ms an name. Yeah that was pretty lame but I give mods the benefit of the doubt.

More important than my little anecdote tho, you should get a grip.

I'm sure there'll be another next week, likely the same day. The problem is most of the people sperging seem to be American. Get some of your blokes to become angry at *checks word salad* moderators for *another glance* deleting too many console war posts and us yanks will get a taste of the old "well fuck, I was asleep," drought.

But I know no action was taken comparable to me. I was thread banned and some note on the post. The other person wasn’t. They actually replied to the post that thread banned me.

So my complaint was a double standard. You can’t hide behind not discussing others moderation when the moderation is publically shown like in this case.

For some reason the tag is gone but you can still see people posting about it.
Here it is.

You wanted to (and still want to apparently) die on a hill defending some fanboy clown on twitter?

I wonder what kind of stuff you have to say here that gets you banned. Sure, on other forums you get banned for virtual farting or "offensive language" or "insensitive language on a sensitive topic" or simply for using ableism words such as "retard". It's walking on eggshells.

But if you manage to get banned here... I don't know what you'd have to do except for heavily insulting mods and admins.

So maybe it's truly deserved?

Just look at a the ban list and read the reasons.

I see. They're kind of funny. No more value to it, though, without the post history of banned users.

Anyways, that's already enough drama for a day.
You can see the post history of the banned users. Most of them, anyway.

am i weird because everyones talking about how theyve had their posts edited? i've never had that many post edits.
the only times the mods got on me was when i derailed that one genshin thread and ended up insulting the game's fanbase. but as shit as the game was they were justified and i was being frankly a giant ass there
