I SEE NO DOWNSIDE IN THIS COURSE OF ACTION

the difference is he didn't ban everyone for being meta and just told them they should move it.

>engage in the exact same faggotry that turned 4chan's /tg/ into such a shitheap in the first place

Actually the new mod had nothing to do with the creation of this site. It was, in fact, the absence of moderation and prevalence of 'well if I don't like this it's okay to troll it off the board!' attitudes that ultimately caused the creation of this site.

The thread's not even deleted. Probably it should go over here on /meep/ though if people want it to be about 4chan/tg/'s moderation.

>>15461

That was the intent, though since none of the other mods were around/active I just locked it for now until there was an opportunity to see what's up.

Oh wait I forgot I'm the bad mod I'm not supposed to do things like that.

>>15461
There's already at least one thread for that already here: >>7401
As well as a bunch of "'sup guys?" because looking for an existing thread about the thing you want to say is hard. (Unless you want to bump one from a year ago, apparently.) Anyway, there's a potential move target should anyone actually want to wrangle kusaba.

>>15463

Yeah but I don't know how to merge threads so I couldn't just stuff it in there =V

i'll see about asking dylan when he comes on irc. that is another big plus to having a smaller community. the admin of the site is easier to get in contact with.

But complaining is *the most* traditional game on messageboards.

This is NOTHING like the other /tg/. The mod here atleast was kind enough not to ban anyone in the thread and told us all where to move it. I am glad he's on the staff.

>>15457
>>/tg/317110

I still don't get it, is the mod implying he is also the mod on 4chan? Or did he take offense thinking he was the mod being spoken of?

>>15468
Another big plus compared to 4chan/tg/ is that the admin is actually interested in and reads the content of the board, at least for /quest/.

>>15473
I think he was calling you a shit-eating retard of incredible proportions in the polite manner because this isn't 4chan and because the thread was on the Traditional Games board rather than the General Discus board where it should be if it really has to exist at all.

Because this isn't 4chan, so why should this site's mod look at another site's bullshit?

Does this count?

Is one pic enough to get me banned? Is it not enough to just warn me? Because I've seen bare chests in other threads that haven't been deleted; that mod is very selective it seems...

It's furry. That's enough.

>>316317
Oh, and Russ, I'd love the link to that dump you posted.

>>316323
I'd say they went overboard; gave me no explanation other than "furry". Ban me when I post it, not 4 hours later; at least then I know you're paying attention and not just being punitive after the fact. So if in fact what that other poster who masqueraded as Sergalfag says is true, then there's multiple mods and some of them have nothing better to do than to troll the backpages for material that personally offends them.
Oh well.

>>316333
>It doesn't look sexual to me.
Nobody cares.

"physiological discussion", aka oh murr~ animal genitalia are delicious, and dumping sexy furry pictures was one of the reasons that made /tg/ the strictly regulated board it is right now.

Just so you know, I actually like the Gnoll picture used as an example, but some people really have to learn when something is appropriate and when not.

>>316327
So, wait, if I murder someone but hide the body well enough that they don't detect the crime and catch me for a month, then prosecuting me would be "punative after the fact because they have nothing better to do"?

That don't make no sense, boy. Backing up the rules with bans is necessary to encourage people to not break them in the first place, and to deter and prevent repeat offence. It's a failure of the mods not to ban you at the time, but an even greater one if they didn't ban you at all.

>>316339
Except that some mods were very active in the thread and didn't see fit to ban me as I was posting; is there a limit on how many bans you can hand out in a certain time span and they had to come back to me later? Or were Sergalfag and Verity so pressing that they just missed my infraction?

I'm just curious as to why the delay, really.

Could it be that /tg/'s new mod squad are reasonable and this whole thing is being blown out of proportion by crybaby whining from people who can't accept that mistakes happen and perverts who can't accept that it's not actually a porn board?

Who knows, one day /tg/ may even be a pleasant place to discuss traditional games. And more Carcassone than 40K.

>>316349
Sorry, getting banned because someone mentioned the word 'mods' is not reasonable. Banning people for posting content or discussing - reasonably discussing! - editions and systems, while leaving up obvious troll threads in their place is not reasonable. And remember, the mods ban people, but they take the janitors' word for who needs banning.

Being critical of mods *when posting to the boards* is a rule. It's right there on 4chan.org/rules
> 8. Complaining about 4chan (its policies, moderation, etc.) on the

(you DID read the rules, right? ...right?)

The rule isn't "you aren't allowed to complain," it's not even a "you are only allowed to protest in designated free-speech zones" (HI2U AMERiCA!). It's "don't get on stage just to bitch about the venue."

Do you really want to see the first two pages of /tg/ filled with threads of people who are demanding a mod's head on a pike after some troll claims his post was deleted because "a mod found out I'm a Jew and he's a fookin racist!" I've seen it happen. Claiming to be a victim is a terriffic way to both (a) get a lot of attention and sympathy, and (b) dilute any efforts to help people who really were wrong-done-by.

(fwiw i r nut a mod; I'm actually one of the dudes that got a nonsensical ban. 3-day ban, about 11 days ago, which for some reason still hasn't lifted.)

Oh hey, speaking of bans and junk: How do I appeal a ban when I can't access www.4chan.org from the banned IP ? I know the ban message is hosted on www.4chan.org because when I tried to access boards.4chan.org/tg/ i got "Location: www.4chan.org/banned", but obviously I can't see that URL anymore. A traceroute stops just one-hop short of the actual server, so I know it's not my ISP being a dick.

... maybe there's an IRC channel where mods hang out?

Good on him.

That shit isn't content.

>>316361
Yeah, and I wouldn't mind if he banned the OP

But fucking half of /tg/ just for replying?

That's bullshit, a lot of the people posting in the thread weren't even talking about elves but got banned anyways. Shit, even people who saged the thread got banned.

The moderator is a fucking idiot.

>>316362

Posting in a shitthread at all is adding to the shitpile by keeping it at the fore of the board.

'Report and Move On' has been the official 4chan mod advice for dealing with shitposts FOREVER.

So I just got banned because I said a sagefag was trolling with him saying the usual "40k is shit, get this off of my /tg/".. and this is what it said was the reason for my ban. Yeah, /tg/ is such a wonderful place.

>>316374
And thus anon learned a valuable lesson: you report trolls, not reply to them.

Replying to trolls is not against the rules.

I don't think that mod is going to be a mod for very long.

>>316375

If that were the case, /tg/ would be a barren wasteland. And anon learned a valuable lesson indeed: restarted his router. Gonna lurk, but not post, though. Because this is the second time they have banned me for no actual reason.

>>316376
I decided to double-check that, and was distractingly amused by:
>Do not post the following outside of /b/...macro image replies
Time to ban everyone!

>>316361
That was the shitspam that got the mods and janitors inflicted on /tg/ in the first place.

The mod is the old sagefag.

Posted in a few "That guy" story threads.

I know that feel, bro, and I'm a writefag. I'm scared to post original content because someone might *BLAM* me for violating some unwritten rule, calling me a furfag because there's an owlbear in an adventure encounter, or starting an edition war when I ask /tg/ for a review of the latest splatbook, god, I don't know anymore.

Honestly, something needed to be done about /tg/ with the sheer amount of shit that was being posted, but the mods have obviously gone well overboard.

Hell, all of 4chans mods have become HURRDURR lately since the latest applications. I've been banned for reporting an abortion thread in /k/ ("abusing the report system"), asking a question in /jp/ that they didn't like (wasn't even trolling in the slightest), and most recently for giving someone who was trying to make yet another shitty DERP EUROPE VS AMERIKKKA thread a troll reply that pretty much amounted to "fuck off".
