Just had this comment deleted by temperance (assuming it was not poeye as its a weekend):

"So the emergency bug team does not exist. That or we arent important enough"

I'm not entirely sure if this is the exact wording its has the same meaning.

Do you guys feel as if this was a justified deletion?
With all due respect, unless I'm not catching the sarcasm, please double check where you post comments in the future.

Nothing was deleted... I'm really hoping other folks aren't experiencing the same problem. I had to go back in the change log to make sure as well. While there, I went as far back to when I did in fact delete a load of comments, and I can assure you that they can all be regarded, without a doubt, as spam/trolling.

You do a good job most of the time, but you do slip up occasionally, just work on it.

I would imagine something more of a meeting place where everyone has their views and opinions as well as questions, answers and jokes.

I think there could be more thoughtful posts, especially in more serious threads, but I think it can also be a place for a lot of fun.

If you want to clean the forum and the more serious discussions, there are better ways to do that then deleting posts and whole threads.

My two cents.


A lesson in grammar, cool. The operative phrase in the definition you provide us with is "on a particular issue". 

Here is the hitch in the gitty up. I would guess that easily 8 of 10 threads are derailed and or purposely hijacked in this forum. There is an inordinately number of people that come in here to just spam threads and/or weave their personal agenda into threads that when they were created had nothing to do with their post. On any given day we endure numerous threads created in the wrong category, repeats of the same old topic (how about Misc vs KON) and dare I say even a few that are created for no reason at all but to spam this place. In all the years I have been playing games and using forums for other topics I have a vested interest in I never in my life seen such a total circus as the GGE forum.  

I will say this and suggest that maybe the forum facilitator's start not allowing people in from other servers. Additionally I believe that anyone posting here should be posting with a user name that can be directly connected to an account in the game.

ah yeah, gotcha.

I don't know how much of a change you could other than maybe start warning people spamming threads. then if repeated offenses a ban. (Which would be a lot better then just deleting.)

I realize you were responding to the guy who thought his post was deleted and not to me, but it looked like you deemed everything you've deleted in the past as having been, without a doubt, as spam / trolling. 

I admit I was looking for a little more than what a moderator deems as absolutes about his or her own actions, but since your response was to mikesmight123 perhaps it was just a sidebar answer.

I'd like to know why normal everyday forum stuff is being lopped off or closed along with the bad stuff, and to such an extent.

Hey guys, I just wanted to pop in here and let you know where I stand. As I said before, the forums were getting a bit out of hand, and I 100% take the blame for that. Things went way too far into trolling, spamming, naming and shaming, and just plain bad content. I have taken a more active role in keeping things out that violate our T&C. That being said, I feel I am still quite lenient, and let you guys pretty much police yourself.
I have to say that I stand by @Temprance, and feel that he is doing a very good and fair job as a mod. Of course some mistakes have been made, but overall I have say I trust his judgement, and support all of the decisions he has made.
