The new ISD's seem to go further than locking threads but outright deletion of topics. Kinda sad to see the censorship they've decided to instill.

Since I returned to Eve a month and half ago I noticed the personal attacks on the forums had evolved into the equivalent of prison yard shankings.

I'm glad to see some civility being restored. I don't want to feel like I'm in the penitentiary yard when I'm reading the forums.

Don't violence me bro!

Stealth moderating? I love it.

Why have to explain to you that you are violating forum rules over and over again?

Keep up the good work mods!! Big smile

IBL Discussing moderation... but yeah - should be using locks and explanations, not out right deletion. How are people going to learn the boundaries if you censor wash the chain link fence?

Sadly not OP's face.

Gawd, it looks like it fell out of a tree made up of crayons

There are good ships,

And wood ships,

And ships that sail the sea

But the best ships are Spaceships

I don't know. The stickies where they list the rules might be a good place to start. You might have noticed them before.

Then again, maybe not.

random posts.

I believe I saw some replies to a feature request thread, suggesting the thread belongs in F&I got deleted and the thread remains although it should be in F&I.

other little things also, but it seems spotty at best

ISD mods, protecting fail posters from reality since 2012 Blink

Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.

Sometimes when I post, I look at my sig and wish that I'd follow my own god damned advice.

The way it's been going this past month or so, they really should just rename Generall Discussion to "All Discussion" and lock the other forums. Apparently the new forum software doesn't have a "move topic" feature, or the button is difficult for them to find.

As an American, I approve the (overdue) use of stealth moderation.

Of course, a real pro moderation system would allow the mods to 'exile' posts/threads instead of using the tactless tactic of deleting them. Meaning, the author can still see their post, but the post is invisible to everyone else. This leads the offending poster to believe that the rest of the community is ignoring them instead of tipping off the poster that for all practical purposes their post has been deleted.

Pon Farr Memorial: once every 7 years, all the carebears in high-sec must PvP or they will be temp-banned.

locking a thread validates it's existence. Deleting a thread quietly proves that it should have been aborted like a prom night dumpster baby.

Maxim 6. If violence wasn’t your last resort, you failed to resort to enough of it.

Don't feel bad. I've had some of my posts stealth moderated as well. One particular post they removed was me name calling someone when he was doing it himself. His post is still there.
