Forums - Website Topics - Forum Rules are Ridiculously Out of Date

Looks like people are pretty happy with the changes, so I'm going to clean them up and post them.

I'm glad to see the "fanboy"/"troll" labels being considered insults. Those are used so often...

Me too.



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

i was once banned because:

a windows 7 thread, i said i dont like windows 7.... BANNED
in this it had NOTHING to do with PC gaming (u can see i use PC on the side i use WXP) it also had nothing do do with MS, i was very angry about this and was banned for like a week, the admin then tryed to justify it? then said he made a mistake! how is this fair? im a requler here on this site and have had 3/4 bans of which only 1 u understood. the others were purely because the 'mod' was having a bad day.

i think all bans cant be given through one mod, they have to be checked first but someone else, this makes it fair

I have no influence on site policy at all, but I owuld like to register that I think this is an awful idea that would serve to further muddy up the process of moderation through beaurecratic hrududu.

http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/post.php?id=2763222 actually you were banned for trolling Microsoft, which is and always has been clearly stated in the forum rules as not being okay.
