When you said old mods, I was thinking of ones like FishyJoe. Those were some dark times if you supported Sony at all. Back in those days, I don't think anyone could argue that Nintendo fans got away with a lot more than Sony fans. I remember how long it took for Gballzack to get a minor ban the first time, and he was just constantly harassing people. FishyJoe borderline baited Sony fans so he had a reason to ban them. From what I remember, he exclusively banned Sony fans. Shams was very anti Sony and pro Nintendo, but it didn't extend into his banning policies.
Now days, I think the moderation staff is much more fair and I like being on these forums much better.
"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY." --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials
