Yes. I've reported post of people flaming me before and nothing was done about it. And I've been banned for being "negative" in Carl's words.

• If you spend a lot of time making hit-and-run negative threads or posts about a specific platform, you will also be moderated at the discretion of the moderators

As a friendly service what is ruled acceptable and what not on VGC.

Good thing I never hit-and-run.

That would be lame as most mods aren't very good at discerning what is moddable and what isn't. "Negative" posts are a moddable offense on these forums.

Can a mod tell me if this qualifies as a hit-and-run/drive-by trolling?

Doesn't qualify.

Pretty much the last one. Most of the rules boil down to the simple statement "Don't be a dick". 

Lawlight has an extensive history of going into Nintendo threads and trying to find the best way to spin any news into something negative or to downplay the positive (like this http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=8531174). It's been going on for years and as the Dothraki would say "It is known". At this point, his intentions are obvious.

You're not a mod though.

Ah, so I can call myself an unofficial mod, too, since I talk to some of the mods?
