Are you guys out of your minds?

So, get this—on the main thread, some user named Katherine called me a troll. Not once, either, but TWICE! And mind you, there were TWO moderators right there watching the whole thing happen, and of course, neither one of them lifted a finger to discipline her. Instead, I’m the one getting slapped with a penalty just for pointing out how ridiculous it was.

Seriously, you moderators are so incredibly biased it’s actually unreal.

I’m the one getting punished for being labeled a troll, while the people actually throwing the insults around get a free pass? Makes total sense, right?

It's a joke. Absolutely pathetic.

And wouldn't you know it, I ended up getting slapped with TWO RED CARDS on that thread—just because I pointed out that some random lady was being straight-up abusive toward me! Meanwhile, she walks away with only one, even though she called me a troll directly in two different posts.

The moderation around here is an absolute joke, seriously. Especially when it comes to that moderator Tyler Vaughn7—I have never met anyone more biased in my entire life, and trust me, there isn't exactly a huge pool of people to choose from here.

You got the warning. You were told explicitly not to comment on the moderation decisions in this thread and to just let me handle the cleanup. So, you know exactly why you're being penalized. It’s just that, apparently, you couldn't resist one last chance to swing at the mods.

I only got flagged because I pointed out how she’s already insulted me twice without getting caught—because if I hadn't said anything, she wouldn't have been penalized at all! I mean, you were right there in the middle of that thread, you saw exactly what she wrote, and yet you didn't say a single word.

So basically, you only handed her a warning AFTER I stepped in, and then—of course—you couldn't miss your chance to slap a warning on me too, even though I wasn't insulting anyone! All I did was point out the fact that Katherine is attacking me personally.

It is honestly pathetic how biased you are. You’re punishing me—the guy pointing out the insults (and I'm only doing it because they went unpunished!)—exactly the same way you punish the person actually hurling them. In this situation, you are treating the attacker and the victim as if they're the same.

And then you act surprised when I criticize the moderators? Seriously? With this kind of blatant favoritism, who wouldn't?

To penalize me just for highlighting verbal abuse... that is completely beyond any sense of objective moderation. And to top it off, you give me TWO warnings while she only gets ONE, even though she called me a troll in two separate posts!

This is a textbook example of bias and totally one-sided moderating.

If you had just used the report button instead of cluttering up the thread with comments—which, let's be honest, isn't allowed anyway—you probably wouldn't be dealing with this. You know that.
Honestly, being called crazy is a much bigger insult to me than someone just labeling me a troll.

Look, if I had used the report button, she WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN PUNISHED—just like she hasn't been punished at all until I pointed out the issue. And honestly, it’s just great how you turned around and slapped a penalty on me too.

Because clearly, this post from the exact same user still hasn't been touched.

You asked some stupid questions once and apparently, you haven't learned your lesson. Are you really going to show up to birthdays and celebrations to feast with an enemy????
Besides, people should weigh in on what we think about her statement, because those two nations—they're constantly trading friendship and insults, singing together on all sorts of levels.
Donald Trump isn't Mexico, and for heaven's sake, neither is the USA.

Do you not get it? You know damn well it's a troll.
Gross.

So, looking at the screen right now—it’s 8:03 PM—and this post HAS NOT BEEN MODERATED.

So please, stop feeding me these fairy tales. You handed me a penalty just for pointing out the problem, which is exactly what you did to her—she insulted me TWICE and only got flagged for ONE post.

Basically, you're treating the attacker and the victim as equals, simply because the victim actually had the nerve to speak up about the issue.

This moderation is absolutely pathetic.

P.S. I didn't call you crazy; I just ASKED if you were sane, considering the way you handle moderation. If I’d actually called you crazy, I would have said it that way.
