We used to just ban people when they broke the rules. A while back we decided to try out just making them permanently moderated. No one who hasn't broken the rules has been put in moderation.
Lately, people are complaining about being moderated. Most are doing it while continuing to break the rules (like asking certain questions WTF they feel like instead of this section:
https://utopiaguide.pl/forums/index.php?forums/why-was.186/ which is headlined with:"Why was my thread removed? Why was my post deleted? Why this? Why that? NB IF YOU POST ONE OF THESE THREADS ANYWHERE ELSE YOU WILL BE BANNED NO QUESTIONS ASKED." )
All this does is strengthen our belief that you need to continue to be moderated. Don't blame us - you did it to yourself by either not bothering to read the rules, or reading the rules and thinking you'd be cute and come up with some excuse as to why what you were doing didn't violate the rules. Do you know why there are so many rules here? Well, we started with one rule:
Don't be an asshole.
Every single other rule is the result of at least one person doing something which we thought should have been obvious, but they had to push it. So, everybody got a new rule. Example: private messaging went away when someone told a woman not to pay for advertising on the site, and instead pay him to private message members an ad for her.
So just in case the above isn't absolutely crystal clear, the surest way to insure that you will continue to be moderated is being a whiney bitch about not getting banned for breaking rules.
