As is the case with pretty much every forum, if you've been here for a long time you'll most likely be favored over a user who is newer. The less posts and VGC $ you have, the less serious people will take you.

...And then there's Rol, who is the exact opposite of what you just said. :P

 

Thanks for the input guys!

 

I just find it a little silly when mods/staff members tell me that I shouldn't be angry about trollers not getting banned if I don't report them myself. I have nothing against the people who tell me this; it's fine, and it's true. What I do think is strange is that it should be my responsibility to "stop" these trollers and report them to the mods. The mods "sign up" to do this stuff, don't they? I don't understand why the responsibility should lie so much in our hands as well. It just seems tedious at times. Again I completely understand if we don't have enough mods and/or they don't have enough time to thoroughly get through everything, but I believe that getting more mods would help the situation. It's just my opinion based on what I know so far.

 

Then there's the fact that I get tired of reporting different users over and over, and not even knowing if I had any effect. Did the mods approve of my report? Did I help in any way? Was I too harsh?  I can't tell because we get no input. This makes the situation even worse in my mind.

 

I got so tired of it today that I took the effort to actually write up a rather....long.... report that was completely backwards and sarcastic. I was complimenting the poster on his "vivid words" and making such a beautiful picture out of the whole thing, when really it was an ugly post. I'm sure that whichever mod read that had a good laugh. =D

 

Speaking of which, are we allowed to share what we write as reports to other users? Or is that against the rules?
