You can see I didn't single out any specific user as an example of stupidity. I’m still trying my best not to go around hurling direct insults at people. But honestly, looking back, what I wrote was pretty ugly. It was just a reaction to being treated so unfairly as an individual on this forum.

And then, out of nowhere, someone starts hitting me with warnings for absolutely no reason. 🤦
There you have it—I’m practically on the verge of being banned because I keep getting flagged for nothing. It feels like almost every warning I get is labeled as "trolling," which is really just a polite way of saying a moderator made a snap judgment. It’s nonsense. Meanwhile, watching people get away with straight-up insults... it makes you wonder what the mods actually consider a real violation.
I honestly feel like the moderators ought to apply the same set of rules to everyone on these boards, rather than letting their actions be dictated by whoever they happen to favor at the moment.
I honestly think they’re doing a decent enough job. The only thing I've caught them doing is making fun of guys for their height, which really isn't what a mod should be focusing on.
For some reason, the thread I started today got shut down, and looking around, it seems like a lot of other topics are getting locked too. I can't help but feel like the mods are being a bit too rigid and inflexible here, especially since the whole point of a forum like this should be to actually have a discussion. By pulling the plug on everything so quickly, they’re really just killing off the conversation and driving down activity across the board.
