All it takes is that one person with g0d mode to just cancel you out even if 98% agree with you ,don't matter . Click tiddy click your gone.I do think this moderation and all over the years is the root of today s woke/cancel culture mess that we see today like with no-facebook and all. I don't agree with you so I just cancel you , bye bye. It's gone far beyond editing foul language.
GTA's rules are mostly clear and were obviously formed with equality and avoidance of conflict in mind, and are "enforced" pretty graciously the vast majority of the time IMO. There are a few places I think wording does not truly convey exactly what is "enforced". One example is about "Paintball airguns" they were omitted from the rules, but there are still some people around that knew the intent of the rules were to exclude them, which is fine it just takes periodic explanations. It is very hard to consider all possible scenarios, ideas, and thoughts when coming up with rules. A scenario is a description of possible actions or events in the future.A thought is a piece of reasoning produced by thinking, and an idea refers to a conception or a plan formed by mental effort.To be thoughtful is better than having a lot of ideas. I believe it was a great idea and thoughtful to exclude cussing.

I believe it was a great idea and thoughtful to exclude cussing.I once began a thread talking about converting a paintball gun to shoot pellets. I was contacted by Mr. Gene himself and was told in no uncertain terms that further discussions on paintball guns would not be permitted... I don't know if those rules have been relaxed but, I definitely got the message... And for those who knew him personally... his message began with.... "Lookie here Avator.... "
(3a)- Firearm and/or Airsoft Discussions are NOT PERMITTED (we ARE an airgun forum) and will be Deleted. Repeat Offences will result in Administrative actions which can include direct warnings, probationary periods, or deletion of membership account.
I am pretty sure Paintball and Airsoft discussions are still "Taboo" because by nature they involve shooting other humans for sport.
That was 2013 - 2024?

Lookie here guys, that is enough discussion about Paintball and Airsoft.Oh, wait: I an not a 'Moderator'. HeeHee
Liz said: I got facebook jail time for similar. Haha There lady sailors these days.
Rule (3a)- Firearm and/or Airsoft Discussions are NOT PERMITTEDNow some may need Paintball explicitly stated but really? In Law, the intend of a Law or Rule, supersedes any such nit picking.
