Imo criticism is good, it points out how you can develop yourself and improve.

what do you think?

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Guys, i email SSJ12 about this, and you guys should take it with other mods as well, a thread about it wont help at all.

Looks like an abuse of power to me. It looks particularly bad when the mod is using personal insults ("pricks"). I've come to expect as much from ssj12, though.

Who is the one we should complain to about mods abusing their powers? Seems like a lot of people are getting banned for bullshit reasons with one name popping up behind a lot of them.

Honestly, they got banned because they either said or agreed with someone calling ssj12's posts "Bullshit" and a "Kojima wank." If they had disagreed in a civil manner, then they wouldn't have been banned.

ssj12 didn't exactly respond in a mature manner either, though, and in addition, there's been much worse posts out there that haven't been banned.



"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."

PM DK. He's the head mod guy... I think. I dunno seems like they should of been banned... though 5 days is a bit extreme. Of course considering this thread and a couple others it seems like SSJ should be banned too... what with the repeated insult of forum members. Guy must be stressed out about something. Nice 1 day bans all around would of worked.

^ agreed he resorts 2 namecalling xD
