The bans in Jaywood's thread are laudable

I don't know what you want me to do Rol. Something needs to be done, and the mod team is holding extremely firmly that everything is functioning properly.

You say I'm escalating? What do you think brought me here in the first place? I don't report. Maybe once a month. Or a very clear violation. Now we're seeing bans left and right for minor infractions. I want something done, and this is the only thing that makes sense to me. You have a better solution? Be my guest and offer it.

I want you to live up to your post count and the same goes for pezus. You guys shouldn't use this incident to talk about what kind of stuff you are going to get other people banned for.

What happened is that a bunch of Sony fans couldn't shut their mouths and had to comment in a thread they had no interest in aside from trying to rile up Xbox owners. They got banned, because they are repeat offenders. The only special thing about this incident is that so many Sony fans did the same thing in the same thread. It's not that the moderators suddenly switched into overdrive.

I don't know what kind of solution I should offer when there's really not much of a problem to begin with. Well, I can tell you one thing. If you really have an issue with how a specific part of the rules is enforced or how something is handled, you can send a PM to all moderators at once and make a case. It's certainly better than a call to arms in public.

I don't believe there is any argument I could make to sway the mods. Even Axum says he supports what I'm doing, signalling the very likely intransigence I'd find on that route.

But it's like I said earlier, the report button doesn't work for me, but it seems to work for others just fine. Like I said, I really only report blatant ones but nothing ever happens. I think that is my biggest beef at the moment, and why I want to do this.
