Good.The comment quality on all the (nearly) unmoderated websites is horrible. People can bitch about unjustified bans here all they want, the relatively high quality of discussions on gamrconnect is a direct effect of our strict moderation guidelines. Only the sophisticated trolls survive :P


Very true.  I would say that things would be worst on here if it had a bigger vocal community though.  The people who knows how to get away with things do.  The rules on this site can easily be worked around.  Even i am guilty of this.   Example being the word biased which basically means fanboy.  We can say one but not the other.  Rules on this site are not efficient and often times completely overlooked.

As long as it isnt trolling (which a lot of the time it is)  i would think you would be fine.  They will likely give warning at first.  Test the grounds on it if you want. Though you will need someone to report you to see if they do or dont.

Biased is a much more sophisticated word than fanboy, though. Thus it doesn't lower the linguistic level of the conversation quite as much.

Not good enough.

Hopefully we'll see some civil arguments instead of troll comments. Unless trolls get more clever.
