This is the only message board I frequent, but from what I've heard, the mods are way harsher on other sites.

Definitely not reddit. You can be banned for intruding on safe spaces there.

More harshly than some, less harshly than others. It's not at either extreme.

About on par with Stalin's Russia.

The fact that it's moderated at all is stupid.

When the mods ignore a blatantly obvious troll who's been trolling a few boards on the site for YEARS........yeah I think this site is less harsh on modding, or at the least, the priority for who or what gets modded is screwed up....

More.

I've been modded for recounting life experiences that were SFW and for discussing certain parts of the wrestling fanbase compared to others and got pulled up for racism, simply because I'd said that Indian fans are way more into wrestling and the storylines than others (which is true, Indian fans on other sites have agreed with that statement but the mods on this site apparently considered it racist and suspended me for a few days, then took away my appeal privileges like a bunch of dictators).

I still browse here occasionally and post even less but I've made sure to recommend that everyone I know stay away from this website due to how it's run and staffed.

I've literally never had the kinds of problems I've had here anywhere else.

More, but the problem is that too many arbitrary things get modded because the rules are both vague and rigid.

It's been so long since I've actively used another board, but I do remember that the other boards I've been to haven't been so stringent when it comes to flaming or so arbitrary with the offensive content rule.

Besides self-moderated boards (like stuff on ezboards), I think the only other forums where I've been reasonably active might be the MtG forums (where, despite not going there in close to 15 years, my daily post count STILL averages over 2 per day) and a brief run on IGN.

Same. As in, huge swaths of the internet is heavily moderated. Gamefaqs is just as authoritarian as most sites.

Depends the site. From the ones I use this is more harsh. I can more or less post anything I want on the Manhunt forums for example.

Agreed. I'm a adult so should be able to say/post anything I please. I don't like censorship and don't care if I offend people.

I think this place is fine and I think the no flaming rule is good since it stops people from spamming you're an idiot to people they don't agree with. As to compared with other forums, the only two other places I've visited in the last few years have been Reddit, which is a shit hole, and sherdog which they are pretty lenient with their bannings. You have to go pretty over the top with the fighter bashing to actually get banned for that and otherwise if you stay on topic they let most everything else go.

Oh, I will mention that I once got modded for comparing a group to Saurumon because, and I quote the mod, "it makes them sound evil." I can't imagine one other site that would have modded over that.

Which isn't a realistic issue given that the problem is already addressed by other rules, including the harassment one. And the sites that I've used which were okay with idiot didn't have massive spamming of that.

All GameFAQs needs is a better-defined TOS, and consistent and transparent enforcement of that TOS.

Eh only ever been apart of 3 ala Reddit, RuneScape, and here. This is easily the least moderated of the bunch in my experience.
