How satisfied are you with the way members are moderated?

Real shit, I do still think this place has overbearing moderation, and I think that it gives the site a really young feel, like the majority of posters are preteen. It's like having parents or teachers, which doesn't feel right on the internet. But when all is said and done, I've talked a pretty good amount of shit to a few different mods, and never been shy about voicing my opinion, and I'm still here. It shows me that the heads that clean up this place are pretty fair, and probably less immature than me since I would've banned myself by now. So people that get banned probably deserve it. It's just the little warnings that annoy me.

Well you'll notice from our new friends post that they asked her not to call other people "retarded." Its not a facist dictum.

And when sites are unmoderated they turn into spam havens who have one-day posters that say things like ...

"i like yeah yeah yeahs karen o is so awesome. i like the last album wut about u"

And you've seen these before. Before any real mod decision we labor over it, with at least 4 people putting in their thoughts. No one here is swinging the ban hammer like its cool.

Yeah, that's legit and kind of what I was driving at. This site is better without anyone who manages to get themselves banned, because anyone who gets banned probably deserve it.

yeah i dont think my posts constitute a BAN as of now. Look at my posts when I first started..LOL I would have banned myself back then. I mean under a hundred posts arent that much to begin with, but how am I suppose to want to keep coming in here if im gonna get all these "uppity" "patronizing" bull$hit attitudes from people. Especially females. They are so sensative.PEople need to have thick skin.
