I know we all get tired of meta posts, but this has been a complaint for ages.
Can we please simplify the rules and then enforce them equally and consistently? As is, we've had pretty sporadic enforcement, where bad stuff - porn, clearly bad faith trolling, and pedophilia advocation, to name a few recent standouts - have stayed up for around a week. Meanwhile, some much less offensive stuff, from established and active members, sometimes gets taken down immediately, which just stifles discussion. (And, no, I was not moderated, this isn't me bitching about something done to me.)
This isn't Reddit; we don't need these rules. We can simplify this all down to 'no porn, no advocating illegal activity, and if you're a handshake you don't have human rights.'
KiA2 happened because Antonio believed the will of the users on OG KiA, expressed through a vote, was being usurped by the mods. As such, I think this forum in particular should be open to voting on matters like the ones discussed in OP. This forum shouldn’t be run like a subreddit.
Let’s have a vote.
I vote rule 16 to be removed.
I've been doing some noticing lately, and I think discussing certain things I've noticed should be allowed.
How does this apply to groups like Communists or Queers? They identify this way, but it's also an ideological position, which can absolutely be inferior and conspiring.
They're literally trying to ruin video games via orgs like the GDC and SBI, am I allowed to say that?
Yes, but not if you say it like (((this))).
