Very quiet in here

There are lots of posts and none breaking rules on both sides of the fence .

We have all had our fair share of moderation on that thread . Not just one side although I admit I used to think a while back it was mainly Pro immigration posters getting warned.

I guess we can all be a bit blinkered sometimes !

Do you want people who don't agree with Anti immigration posters banned from posting ?

And it's that arrogant condescending attitude that just backs up my point.

Thanks for that.

I got a 2 week ban for saying a post lacked critical thought 😂

Meanwhile a mod is running amok in that thread and nothing is done.

Id be very surprised if pro immigration posters got warned much, if at all. But anti immigration posters get banned.

I got banned for posting about irish heritage. My post was in response to another poster, pro immigration. They continued to post on the subject, no warnining no ban.

The mod that banned me tried to tell me i was wrong about my point on irish heritage.

Pretty much proving that I wasn't being banned for any rule breaking. I was being banned for having a different view of irish heritage than said mod.

Its a safe space for left leaning posters. If you cant see that then...

If you can't respond to a reasonably put post with reasonable questions then that says more about you than me really.

Clearly you're not familiar with the idea that as a mod you should be setting an example of the behaviour you would expect yourself but fair enough.

As for me being "condescending", perhaps read back over your first post in this exchange above.

Don't worry though. We can leave it there. You've more than made my point for me here.

You called me a dick while banning me for supposedly attacking the poster not the post.

Which i thought was hilariously ignorant.

I have had warnings . I know other posters who have been banned. So you can't say it is all anti immigration posters that get banned .

There are much less pro posters on that thread . A few who are posting are not there that long just recent months. And we have to be careful what and how we say things just as much as anyone else .

At some stage unless people dial it down and do what the mods are asking them to do they will get warned .

And bans now mount up .

And with all due respect none of us can say that we are always right however much we think we are when the blood is up .

Not only recently, just gradually worse.

Actually, what criteria is used to select them [mods] in the first place?

Desperation?

I'm beginning to think there is some sort of a hierarchy in the CA mods team now. 'Okay guys, I suggest we start to use 'being be a dick', instead of the dumbass 'uncivil' stuff we've been using - 'Sounds good Alpha mod, let's do it'

There's a whole hive-mind of people out there watching/analysing what's happening - you do know that, right?

It horriific and fascinating viewing, all at the same time, as the site eats itself alive

Warned: Breach of charter

The eternally offended appear to be mods and people reporting posts. Bans should be solely for bullying of some description after a bit of investigation or spamming.
