Ulynidd Forum Moderator Interstellar Services Department	Posted - 2006.09.02 12:37:00 - [1] Originally by: eveceo1 Yes, im going to run the risk of getting a warning for this, but it seems like the only way to voice my opinion. Wrong. Just like everybody else does, you can email us. Originally by: eveceo1 This is not in referance to any 'single' act of moderation but to the overall moderation of this sub-forum. In my honest oppinion, not that alot of people care, i think this sub-forum is overmoderated to the point of making it stagnant. Back in the days of the forum-fights of CA/M0o/SA/etc... moderators would let everyone vent their thoughts/spleens as much as need be to make a thread:- a) worth reading b) fun c) constructive even if said thread included some chest-beating/spam/whorage. Now- any of the previous and a thread is locked. If the topic gets derailed slightly, its locked, if the mod is on PMS its locked... When a person posts an achievement on this forum, it saddens me that so many people straight away post with such things as, "so what who cares?", "yawn", "you had to post this?", "blah blah", "great!! well done noob" and so on and so forth. "back in the days" of the forum fights of "CA/M0o/SA/etc" there was not by any stretch of the imagination as many forum users as there are right now, and a lot of moderation was done even back then, I should know I was doing it. The difference now is that with so many more people rising to flamebait, a thread can quickly spiral out of control with pointless arguing. We try to keep a thread alive as long as possible if the original post is not flamebait. Just for the record, I also like to read the intrigue and politics which goes on in this forum, but once it steps over into pointless name calling, flaming, accusations of exploits, ebaying .. it has to stop. If when you posted you stuck to the forum rules the main forum rules have not changed much in 3 years, threads would not need to be moderated, and the discourse could continue. Thats all I have to say about this and please be aware we dont like locking threads.
