I still think that people who have issues with the game should have a chans to speak their minds. But You get banhammerd as soon as you dont post something that is not Politicaly correct. And in this case saying something bad a about a hyped game..

    And the thread was even possitive right? That makes the argument that they cencor anything that remotly sounds negative....

    once again it wasn't my thread and the D stood for lets see if I can remember.. Deep, Dazzling, Difficult oh well can only remember 3 out of 5. The point is not that it was a complaint as I understand deleteing troll threads as they aren't true complaints only trying to get ppl mad. This wasn't a troll thread.

    and Bunks! I am shocked you found it to be an issue, I think the thread author was trying to put it out there as the video guy wanted it.. and the video was as I said before a good review (in my opinion)

    All hail the AAA devs! They must pay these sites very well to squash any intelligent discussion of their watered down recycled garbage.

    It was not trollisch at all

     

     

    Never said it was, I said that the title could appear that way and gave a suggestion to bypass whatever was bothering the forum mods.

    No one should have to read the topic to get the gist of what YOU are expressing, as strange as that may sound.  Titles need to be accurate and descriptive.  Of course, a LOT of people put vague titles and aren't punished for it, but that's slightly less bad then putting something misrepresentative of the actual tone of the topic contents.
    You KNOW people will see something inflammatory like "I give it a D" and rush in, maybe post without reading (believe it or not they are entitled to do so), and you've baited them into it.
    In general, I think it's a minor offense, and removing may have been overboard, but don't pretend it's innocent.

    Your looking way to much into this and load of bullocks.

    If mod would have checked the video he would have seen it right title for topic only vicious people who always see something bad wanne CENSOR every that MAYBE remotely offensive or baiting or not agree with. Its all way overly censored here on forum.

    So no there was no baiting.

    The original video was baiting, not the OP :)

    fair enough though,  its just a stupid cutesy title,  guess baiting can have a broad definition.

    The Mods here should also know that they live off.. Banners... on this site.. So if people stop comming here thier money dryes up. So I ask the Moderators on this site think about this before you delete thread left and right. Because one day there might not be any thread left to delete. This NEO NAZI cencorship has to stop on this site. Evry time you post, you walk the thine Line hoping that you dont get banned or your post gets deleted...

    I get a mod warning for calling out a SWTOR fanboi in the above mentioned thread, you can say Anet dickriding apparently but god forbid I call him a fanboi. Must be on a roll this morning, just saying.............

    The problem I had with it was the way he did it, not the content. Trying to be fair here, it cuts both ways you know. He used fake bait to lure out trolls, but that's still trolling to me. Like I said, no text, new account, and spammed 3 threads in a minute.

    I stopped visiting Guru forums because they went overboard with GW2, so when I see people spamming this cite to hype up a game that doesn't need to be, it makes me think about when the other side decides to do it. How will the mods react then? If they allow this to happen now.

     It was just a deceptively titled video...it wasn't baiting.  It's like saying I give you an "E" for excellent!

    If folks think that video is baiting, then they need to tune their sensitivity meters down a bit ;).

    But it was ><

    It was designed to make rabid fanboys and trolls alike click on it, ready to get ragey/smug and then saw that it's actually not what they were expecting. Even the wording in the video itself made it CLEAR he knew it was meant to bait people in.

    It's a good title to get people to view the video BECAUSE it's baiting :p

    If you can't see it, you need to turn your sensitivity meter up! :D

    No this is a marketing tool of the AAA devs. It has been for years. Nothing intelligent, or innovative ever gtes brought to the surface here. It's just how great the next WoW clone is going to be, and how you're the minotiy if you have any sort desire to play somethign different. If you have any brain activity left inside your head you don't belong here.

     Okay fine, it's baiting.  But it's good natured baiting.  Kind of like a Rick Roll or something.  It's baiting to where you click on the link and then smile to yourself thinking "ah yah got me, good job!"

    I don't really consider this bad.  Bad baiting is when you are negative or insulting to get a response.  It's just a clever title, that's all.

    Are you team Azeroth, team Tyria, or team Jacob?

    LMAO at the conspiracy theories being posted here.

    Insulting people and being a jackase might call for bann I agree but posting negative or positive threads about a game should not get cencored.. Only thing I can agree with is Outright attack on another Poster. And as we dont know one another IRL.. those attacks are not really personal Either... There is just way to much cencorship here. And Iv started to post on Competative sites instead, just because they allow more open Post....

    Im a strong beliver in democracy its the founding pillar of our western sociaty and even if you own your own site and run a private forum. YOUR CORE MORALS should stop you from doing unnecessary censhorship. It benefits nobody but hurts Freedom of speach... and That dosent sit well with me, even if they run this privatly and can do whatever they want...

    Ain't the first time, fanboy mods get hurt by a thread title and rage-delete without looking at it's content.

    that I disagree with, I think its fairly obvious by my signature and how I talk that I am indeed a woman.. I have also mentioned my husband when trying to explain a point. Because of that one thing(being female) I was called a slut and worse by the SWTOR fanbois when I made intelligent posts regarding our experience in SWTOR beta and how it wasn't a good game. Insults ARE taken personally and its not needed.. ever. When you want to make a point you don't need to resort to nasty comments, but dammit if you dish it out expect to get it in return! (thats what I like to call the hell hath no fury like a woman scorned response)

    Many people have left this site for other forums. There are not many of us left. I always come across the same faces. I would say there are not many of us left on this site that make any contribution to these forums. More and more leave every day. And people you could have good debates with have long since left. Because of the heavy cencorship on this site. This is not a good sign..

    If you say anything that could be considered offensive to anyone or aimed at anything, your thread is subject to deletion, you are subject to a suspension, or even possibly a ban.

     

    Even if it's completely justified, there will always be one person who is going to report your post or thread, just because that's what gets them going.  In a lot of cases, the mods just agree without really thinking about it. 

     

    This post might even anger someone.  It's hard to even have legitimately intelligent conversations on these forums without the threat of reprimand.
