This website is actually a lot better now in that regard. When I first joined, a particular member would make these passive-aggressive, sarcastic threads.

Hmmm, I wonder who!

I wouldn't go that far xD.

But yeah usually I find moderation is ok, but sometimes they just let the wrong people get away with it and ban people who don't really deserve it.

I have said a lot of crazy shit there, even funny insults, as a joke of course nothing personal , 0 bans. Here I was banned because of a meme that says "why so salty" or something like that, 3 days lol for a meme. Again, moderation is good but sometimes is like, man, c'mon!

Yeah it's silly, everyone gets so upset over jokes. I mean I got banned for this post http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=8106613. which was apparently an "ATTACK ON THE OP". Like come on, people need to lighten up.

I really don't know. I've never found it difficult to express my opinion here and I've never been banned.

Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

Getting banned is like right of passage. Enjoy it whilst it last. Then return and post some more lol.

I got banned once for calling a troll a troll. He had no credibility on this site (probably an alt account) but hoe hum.

Yeah, at least we don't have a toxic community, I guess we will have to deal with it.

I got warned for praising Sonys marketing team. Who knows what will set people off.

I also got a warning under 'Other'. There are broad interpretations to 'Other'.
