Like they ban people for innocent fun a lot?

There should be more moderation in moderation.

Anyone but Foman. He smells like cheese.

No, not really.

SPOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!

No.

Though I admit I'm a bit biased. I don't ban for having innocent fun though. I ban when someone violates the rules or the CoC or ToU. I think there's a clear and distinct difference.

I am...whimsical today.

I think they ban people for guilty fun.
I'm pretty sure the fun knows that it's in the wrong too.

  • 11.08.2011 6:15 PM PDT

They are pretty cool guys, who swing ban hammers and don't fear nobody.

Anyways you don't really get banned unless you deserve it; here let me be an example

10/16/2011 4:06 AM: Anonymous [1837598] issued a 3 day ban expiring on 10/19/2011 4:06 AM.
Reason: A Bungie.net Forum Moderator has banned you for violating the code of conduct and/or rules of the forum in the thread below

They have a very strict ban quota they have to fulfill, so of course there are going to be some undeserving bans.

Not harsh enough. Perma's for all!

The moderators are incompetent. This involves them being harsh and lenient in equally indiscriminate measure.

I think the moderation is just right.

ISU Cyclones!

Moderation is fine. When the amount of people who have a problem on the site with moderation is so relatively small the conclusion can easily be made that they're the ones who want to get away with the things that are getting them in trouble.

To them a much better solution than changing their ways to fit the site is to change the site to fit their ways. Internet. You so silly.

"Critics who treat adult as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence."
-C.S. Lewis

It's not harsh. If anything, it seems a little lax.

I think the only ones to watch out for when it comes to chain banning are Foman and Evilcam.

At least Evilcam is funny.

Ask any question. I'll help with anything on site or off.

No, it's just fine to me.

This is actually the stupidest thing ever posted on B.net:

Why does everyone hate Halo 2? Maybe its because its the worst game ever next to mario.

There needs to be more moderation in the Reach forum. It is kind of sad, tbh. Trolls live there with very little consequences.

I know that my bans were justified, They are pretty good about moderating

  • 11.08.2011 6:58 PM PDT

No, the moderation is not in any way harsh. If you've ever been banned, you know you deserve it. The Bungie mods are actually a lot more lenient, contrasting with Waypoint's "ban everyone until the forums are filled with rainbows" sort of modus operandi.

Wait a minute! They have rainbows?

Best of random chance

Very rarely I think that bans and locks should be circumstantial, but that's about it.

Not always.

Believe it or not, I think our mods do a good job. I have my problems. But overall, I think they do good work.

Yeah, they have really pretty rainbows. You just have to try your best to ignore the totalitarian police state around you as you wander through the environment.
