Poll of the Day > If and when you get a moderation on this site do you usually hit accept?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Do you usually hit the accept button? What do you usually do?
---

Never

I always dispute them, even if I clearly deserve a moderation.
---

Nope. Fuck the mods.

I usually don't accept or dispute them. Just let 'em sit there til they're cleared.
---

No, because I recognize it's just a brownie point system for the mods. Fuck that.

Nope, Hell some of them are clearly BS but I just think "why bother" to disputing it, just let it sit there and run it's course....
---

I think I might have accepted one. But the rest I've never been willing to accept, most of my moderations have been absurd.

I used to fight them, but after you clearly win, they still have the power so there's no point.

Just hit accept.
---

I usually hit accept just so it clears off of my usermap quicker.
---

Has there always been an accept button? I think the last time I got nodded was in 2003.

do you get a bunch of moderations? I don't even get one that often so i never hit accept. You don't have an alt?

I almost always deserved it

yep it's a badge of honor. to know some snowflake has been triggered.
---

I usually dispute because it's usually some BS moderation.
I haven't really gotten any moderations for quite a while now with the exception of the one that happened just the other day.

I was modded because I used a certain Swedish word.
I just find it kinda funny that the guy probably had to use Google translate in order to decide if he should mod me or not lol
---

When I get modded for something that actually should be modded, I accept it. But other than that, I dispute it, and that never works so then I don't accept it.
---

I've never disputed a moderation.
---

I only accept if I attempted to dispute and failed.

iirc you can't dispute after even one failed appeal

I don't care enough to hit the accept button.

Eventually you realize moderations mean literally nothing.

Nah you definitely can. It might have a limit though, like once a week or once a month or something. I've definitely disputed more than one different moderation.

Might be because you're only a regular user. Maybe the limit gets removed as you get higher.
---

i will dispute them once, asking the mod a stupid question


---

One time, it was fair, so I just accepted. Every other time, HELL NO!
I dispute it, and when that inevitably gets rejected I still don't accept it, because invariably they're complete bull shit and I'm not going to agree w/ the mod just to get some karma back or whatever it does.

90 days if it goes all the way to admin last I checked.
---

Yeah, if I get modded it's usually for some pretty clear trolling.
---

I pretty much blindly accept them like 75% of the time. I used to dispute them a lot and even had a couple of them overturned but I find it really isn't worth the effort. I also don't get modded often enough for it to really make a difference to me either way.
---

nope i always go out of my way to get 2 disputes in just b/c i can

i've only had one or two overturned so it's not even about that. it's mostly about showing how defiant and alpha i am to online authority (aka not real authority)
---

yeah because 90% of the time i break an infraction and get moderated. if i broke the rukes im not going to complain.

if its something that didnt i might. i was posting about nasal snuff once a 100% legal product to own in the us and the topic was moderated for illegal activities. i disputed it and the moderation was erased from my record but topic wasnt reposted. if i had known that i wouldnt have bothered. karma is largely useless

I usually accept it. Most of the time I feel like it's somebody being a pussy, but I acknowledge that it's a grey enough area that the mod wasn't being ridiculous either. The odd time I've fought it though, and I've had a couple overturned.
---

I almost never hit accept. I did once and it's because I deserved the moderation. Every other time, I fight them tooth and nail over it. The reason being that this site mods you for not agreeing with hyper-liberal values and expressing said differing viewpoints and the moderators and admins abuse their power to enforce their tumblr views. I will never submit to any authority that behaves in such a deplorable manner.

And yet almost all of my moderations have been for upsetting a precious little snowflake on the right.
I say things the left-leaning posters don't like, yet for the most part am not subjected to any moderations from them.

this this this this this this this this

and the mods can't do shit about my defiant nature. i have too much karma now. they can't do anything unless i let them

Ha! Who REALLY has the power?
---

50/50.

Sometimes it's cause I took obvious shitposter bait.

Other times it's just a completely ridiculous moderation from a nerd whose hand is his girlfriend and never sees the light of day cause he's busy abusing his troll powers by exploiting GFAQ regulations in the form of an SJW standpoint to justify his bullshit.
---

fuck no if you accept it the mod probably gets a huge boner fuck em!
