Well no. I don't give a gooseberry fool what the title is. That doesn't mean I can't have an opinion on whether the title is stupid or not when prompted.

Mods aren't supposed to edit content unless it contravenes the rules. So according to that Mafro overstepped the mark. StayDead is the author of the thread, if people have a problem with that there's nothing to stop them from creating another one or convincing him to change it.

It is a strawberry floating stupid thread title though and it should just be PC Gaming Multiplayer Thread so that anyone that isn't about 5 PCS people knows what the content actually is before they open it.

I've unlocked the post.

Surely [PCMT] is obvious enough for that?

Or should we have a link from PCGT to help those who can't remember 4 letters?

At least we have GG who is smart enough to understand the rules!

I thought that PCMT meant Post Coital Menopausal Therapy.

Apart from forum rules?

Those are posting guidelines not rules, the rules are what are actually under warnings, bannings etc. It does say "observe the following posting guidelines".

You can consider this an exception.

We've usually been pretty laid back with moderation but if everyone is going to get arsey about total mod consistency, equal treatment (look, him too! He started it! Mlehmleh..) and 100% according to rules (even when it's bloody obvious someone is just taking the piss pretty much every time we take action) then that's going to have to change. You can't have both this flexibility and tolerance for different people's character (eg whether or not they actually meant harm) and banter etc while demanding stricter adherence to rules by mods as well, who are really just doing their jobs while those complaining are usually just jackass upstarts that know and admit that.

Most of this is superfluous bollocks that isn't important. Stay out of each others way and don't be a dick for fun and you won't get banned, I don't see why anything should be more complicated than that. Hell I don't really get why people complain so much when they are banned for breaking the rules one way or another, as if they've earnt the right to or deserve to just keep going simply because they've mastered getting away with it for so song. Just deal with it and move on, we're far less strict than other gaming forums.

Consider that my opinion, but you may notice it won't affect policy, since I'm not an impressionable idiot including unto myself. That's not how you do this job.

Does beg the question why do people seem to find TCRT fairly easily, even with it's titles (and threads!) changing regularly. I'd like to think the forum population isn't dumb.

It's almost always near the top of the first page in Off Topic and has the words "Chat Room Thread" in the title.

Because this userbase is getting more and more cliquey and people understand what the heck that stands for already.

I guess everyone gave up thinking about accessibility for those outside of that circle i.e. the rest of the world. ¯\0/¯

Edit: Oh right they do title the thread instead of using and embarrassingly technocratic and "in" abbreviation for no reason.

I think that any threads that have vague or non-representative titles should be immediately renamed or locked. The title is there to tell people what the thread is about. If you create a thread that requires someone to click on it in order to see what it's about, you're a fuckwit.

StayDead I think you need to calm down, you do to be fair get a lot of gooseberry fool from people on here many a time but there was no need for your language in your previous posts. You whine bitch and complain about how you are really mature, how you are moving on with life in the direction you want and put forth this degree of responsibility, maturity and intelligence. Yet you come in here, because of something quite small that could of been dealt with a simple PM (to be fair stop changing the title to crap that no-one understands is worthy of slapping the lips off your mouth for being an idiot) and you whine bitch moan complain crying like you've just lost your finger up your anus.

Also, Goat you can strawberry float off, you told someone to go and die and got banned, which was a perfectly reasonable ban.


Quote:
The thread was my idea, I made the damn thing and I was keeping it updated. You should strawberry float off.


Quote:
All of you can just piss off, especially Mafro. You really are a dick.


Your right of course people have been banned for less than what Zeni did, therefore you should suffer a ban for such abhorrent language attacks at formites.

As my flawless evidence at the time shown it wasn't really reasonable.

You whined about it and got everyone else to whine for you

I didn't ask anyone to "whine" for me. Not my fault people happened to agree with, and perhaps like, me.

Quote:
they let you back as everyone is on your side all the damned time. Your ban was worthy and people have been banned for less. Seriously Mafro, just strawberry float right off. You're really pissing me off and much like everyone else who's ever become a mod on this place, you've changed. Just because you have mod powers now doesn't give you the right to do that to my thread.

I now can't edit my own post as Mafro decided he'd just randomly take away that power from me. That isn't fair and I really don't get why he's allowed to do it. Can someone please do something about this? He's being a complete dick about it and won't give it back to me. It's the PCMT for any mods who may see this. That is, if Mafro doesn't delete this post too. :roll:


After your comment in the Gary Speed thread, I thought about taking away your ability to be here.

As for the general discontent with the mods, it's more due to indivudal mods overreacting to small stuff. For example, Zeni's ban was pretty much one mod acting on his own, while this is due to Mafro whinging over a thread title (a good two weeks after the title in question was made, and continuing a long tradition of silly thread titles for the TCRT, PCGT and PCMT) when everyone was using the Battlefield 3 thread (or Battlelog, or Mumble) for setting up multiplayer PC games instead of the thread in question. Sure, StayDead over-reacted, but it doesn't mean he isn't wrong.
