Subject: Your reaction to changes in moderation?

What if new moderation measures were put in place on all the public forums on Bungie.net that basically mirrored Waypoint or any other overly-strict forum?

Would places likes the Flood still thrive with, well, "Flood behavior"? How different would the public forums be exactly? How would the mods feel about moderating the forums with such high standards?

If you think about it, the Flood wouldn't really be as comfortable of a place. One wrong move or opinion could get you in big trouble. It would kinda be like how a troll makes a spam thread and tons of people post in it, and then they're all carpet banned, then you notice somewhat of a difference in posts and opinions... but on a much larger scale.

Basically, I want to know people's opinions on stricter moderation, and your thoughts if such moderation measures were taken here on Bungie.net.

The rules at waypoint arn't strict. Just the mods are morons. Which I doubt will happen here.

I don't know about waypoint, but I don't think stricter moderation would really do this site any good. People who are going to bread rules will do it regardless, but stricter moderation could harm inexperienced members who just slip up.

Your title is miss-leading.

Just wait until I become a mod >:)

OT : I've only ever ventured to waypoint to start an uprising to get anniversary BTB back. My endeavors have been...unsuccessful. So I don't know how they moderate but from the sounds of them from other Bnet community people, they aren't very nice.

It used to be much more strict around here, but since Bungie is dark there is some wiggle room and more of a lax feel around these parts. It wouldn't affect me much, I stay within the rules.

breaded rules taste great on a hoagie with a bit of mayo.

While I won't comment on what Waypoint does since I don't know, I do prefer to have more lax rules on this site. Allows people here to have more fun without having to worry about having to be banned for every small reason.

SPOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!

I think Bungie should clone Shishka about 40 times, fire all the current mods and unleash the Shishka army upon the community.

This place would be hell, not to mention that the forums would be dead seeing that every body would be banned

I don't care how strict a forum is, as long as the moderators abide by their own rules. Every forum I go to besides here, the moderators ban you for personal reasons that have nothing to do with the forums rules.

  • 08.28.2012 1:45 PM PDT

I don't know myself about the Waypoint Moderators but have heard from others here on bungie.net. They are probably strict because they are about to release a huge game soon. It will most likely bring in an influx of users to their site.

Aside from that, here on bungie.net, the mods are really cool peeps. But don't let that fool you. Rules are rules. They are meant to be followed regardless of new changes in moderation.

Well, here we are. I guess that it was destined to come to this.

Are we changing again? That's another memo that I didn't get!

What persona this time? Jame Gumb, Cardinal Richelieu, or Rasputin?

I gave that one up when my hordes and I were unable to get into the TARDIS. We really did try.

Well, only according to the sixth and ninth doctors. You can't always rely on 6 and 9.

“Strange,” mused the Director, as they turned away, “strange to think that even in Our Ford’s day most games were played without more apparatus than a ball or two and a few sticks and perhaps a bit of netting. imagine the folly of allowing people to play elaborate games which do nothing whatever to increase consumption.”

Been done...
And yet here we all are, still. (Or at least, some of us)
