I can't help but wonder why you're being sarcastic about this. It's people like you that made him this way.

I hold little hope in this community if they can't be mature enough to not just browbeat anyone even remotely naysaying to the point they don't even expect their own topics posted to be taken seriously.

There is already two topics on this. Post in those topics instead of clogging the forums just so your post can get more attention.

If you were on your game you would see those were locked and posters directed here by moderators. Cheers.

I also think that if your first thread needed to be locked and cencored, I'm all for it, it was a definitely pointless post, but completely removing it is just wrong.

That said, it was non-constructive and whiny and easly affect a GGG employees feelings considering the efforts they're putting towards the next content update. Even though it is not on a personal level I know you from your forum existence and it surprises me that how selfish you turned out lately, every time your feedback or suggestions didn't prioritized by GGG you lost it even more. If you don't enjoy the current status of game, just quit. GGG is not responsible for tuning their game to fit your tastes, maybe it is time to accept that and move on to another game.

Need to lurk harder.

I think this is a non-topic at this point. For consistencies sake mods just need to lock such topics. Deleting has no extra benefit(while having many cons) unless it's an ad or explicit pornography being posted.

Oh well. GGG has made their policy pretty clear so we will all just have to deal with it and follow it as best we can. If the mods are really trying to be perfectly consistent then Charan's post above will probably be edited or removed. Who knows though its so subjective sometimes.

Edit: and other posters in this thread as well.

I don't even understand how you can compare charan's post with what JohnKeys did.

That is legit feedback in my post, is it not? I learned from the best on how to formulate it.

Nobody gets a 'Out of Jail' card just because they might have made some constructive posts in the past. And If my posts get removed and I get put on probation, so be it. I knew the risk and took it anyway. You won't see me making several Threads about it.

Hey, I got probation the other day for replying to a post that made a gay personal attack at me and someone else.

My post only pointed out the personal attack.

My post got deleted, the other post remained.

Reason for probation? Personal attacks.

It's a bit twilight zone around here, lately, Johnny.

This should be in Off-Topic.

The moderation is fairly consistent. What people seem to overlook is the HISTORY of posters. It's one thing to sound "aggressive" in one message, or in a few posts over a longer period of time, and it's another issue entirely to spew malcontent and drag down the forum atmosphere on an almost daily basis.

If the latter is allowed to go unchecked, as if it had been for a while, the whole forum becomes an unpleasant place for anyone but those who thrive on controversy. I appreciate the increased moderation we see lately and I feel it's a good step to improve the quality of the community.

GGG still allows a lot more negativity and whining on their forums than pretty much every other game company out there.

Context matters.
