Bring back the "dislike" button and add a "Dislikes Received" under our forum names...
Address the long-standing issue of the moderation team either not understanding their own rules or how to enforce them.
For example...trolling and flamebaiting.
These are the "guidelines":
-
Forbidden Posts and Topics:
- Spam / trolling / flaming / boycotting / discriminatory / defamatory / obscene / pornographic / religious / political / laws / degrading / racism / terrorism / cheats / selling accounts / malicious software / spreading viruses / phishing / illegal content / ban and moderation decisions / staff impersonation / posting for banned users / discussions negatively impacting forum atmosphere.
- This includes all forms of content (wording/links/pictures..)
Forbidden: "Describes something that is not permitted, explicitly disallowed, or banned by rule, law, or authority. It is also the past participle of the verb".
Yet you allow it to occur and don't do crap about it, or you demean and/or diminish people's concerns when they present them to you...and you wonder why there is no forum activity or engagement. If you're gonna have rules, then enforce them equally and fairly, or get rid of the rules altogether. You have told me a few times that it's a war game and trolling/flamebaiting are part of it...well, if that's the case then why have it listed as a forbidden topic/post? So, that you can pick and choose subjectively when and who to enforce the rules on?
