The one with a link to a chat place (no reposting it here so this is 100% TOS complaint).

Everyone else seems to be sharing their discord, including lead mods. Whats different?

I ask so I can understand and follow the rules properly too

When did that happen

Last month, by alpha when i asked about creating my own discord to chat with my peeps outside gamefaqs

Hey Vegy. Just wanted to remind you that if you share a discord on gamefaqs that violates the content rules of this site (offensive most likely) you will get moderated for it. Cause I am taking a guess at why youd want one.

If its fine by the rules then you have nothing to worry about.

That's... completely different from what you claimed. You said "a mod warned me of suspending me if I linked to my discord", he said "you can link your discord, but you'll get modded if it violates content rules"

Was dat not a warning?

It was, but he didn't say you'd get suspended. The only way that would happen is if your moderation history was terrible or you kept doing it after it got modded the first time

Is suspension not something a mod can give to another user?

Not to mention he already has it in his head dat i post offensive stuff? Even doe i hadn't even created it nor would he have been allowed in it NOR would i ever post offensive stuff imo lol

It honestly felt like a threat tbh

I dunno man. You just took a warning from a mod not to link to anything with NSFW content as a sign of some kind of mod-wide manhunt, so who's to say you aren't embellishing other stories of 'bias' and 'targeting'

I'll PM you later my story after work, screen shots and everything

I have no idea where he pulled the youre on the mod hit list thing from but it has always been the rule that if you link to another site/platform with offensive content it will get moderated...

I was trying to help him out by letting him know what the rules were. Thats all.

not saying you were threatening or anything. just confirming those were your words. so even if gwwak was following the site rules and someone else wasn't in his discord, gwwak would be the one responsible correct?

To CE they are. It's why the former community manager got trolled badly by a combination of hoth and vegy despite mods telling the community manager not to post on CE.
I don't mind the new mods but we have people here with literally 18 year old accounts who only troll on them.
They're going to lose. Just mod them when they break the rules. Don't engage in a conversation with them.

If you have marked a message then your part of the moderation process is over. If someone is posting white supremacist channel content from youtube or whatever then yes that is a violation (some I have removed myself in the past).

It's as simple as that.

I don't wanna toot my own horn here, but...

TOOT TOOT

I knew I had to figure out a way around this rule for my Discord. I posted a link on a community board, and because I knew two key things 1)I live rent free in some people's minds 2) people love to see disasters. I figured they would think my discord was a disaster, and they would want in on the ground level.

Less than 12 hours later, I had someone I never heard of make a topic linking my discord on the front page of CE in a very popular topic.

Hook, line and sinker.

mwhahahahaha

So whats the excuse for when they get non-auctioned (which they have in the past) or when they stay active for over a week?

Followed by a string of suspicious moderations such as getting hit for a message that you posted 2 years ago or something:

We're not in the business of selling forum posts that violate the rules so naturally all violations would be "non-auctioned".

Active for awhile can be any number of things. Short staffed, nobody reported it until such a time, etc. It may come as a surprise to you but the moderation team is not "the all seeing Sauron eye" of the boards.

And given your posting style and how common NSFW channels are it's not exactly a crass guess


it is a veiled warning because da mods dont want deir moddy-cams to capture dem explicitly saying dat dey are targeting vegy
