Back to Complaints

Definition of HC.

deletedover 9 years

Anyone else notice the mod team just changed it to cover their tracks of bad moderation. Why didn't they tell us?...should everyone with a hate comment be unbanned because former/current mods didn't even know what a hate comment was? So unprofessional..yet so typical.

TO THE MODS:

Be productive and actually talk about something site relevant in the moderator chat, and come up with ACTUAL GUIDELINES behind a HC. The way things are being handled right now is honestly just ridiculous.

We have these mods just throwing violations left and right and its pretty crazy if you go back and look at some reports. Its like they are just trying to fly though the reports to get them done and see one or two words and say 'HATE COMMENT!' not looking at the context, not looking at really anything.

It seems most of you moderators are new or maybe not as involved, and I know its probably not a fun job..and a lot people may not like you. The RESPONSIBILITY of a moderator is to maintain a FAIR and enjoyable experience..im rambling..but it is not fair to any player to have these vague descriptions of what someone may think a HATE COMMENT is. This is just bad moderation, bad moderation drives away new players which hurts the site..obviously.

I'm just maybe trying to provoke some thought, sorry if you feel I'm being to harsh...but this is the complaint thread after all. I'm sure you moderators are good people, and have common sense. I'm sure you know mafia is a competitive game, and people may get frustrated from time to time. Ultimately its you guys who enforce the rules...this is simply a rant. In my opinion, it would just be nice to see some leniency in moderation differentiating actual HATE/DEMEANING SPEECH from SWEARING.

Feel free to state your opinion, but really the big thing I'm trying to get at is fair moderation..and I think the HC topic is one that is LONG past due to being addressed for everyones sake.

personally i think if you're actually using it in a post talking about the word itself it's one of the few contexts it's ok. but like just saying it for the sake of saying it is still kinda weak and bad and a vio. idk man don't quote me on that someone else might vio you lmao

so just to clarify it's still hc for me to censor bypass and say r*tard in a non hateful context, right? like if it's for a post talking about the word itself

i intend to offend u by calling u lame af, but that's not hateful derogatory language
deletedover 9 years
then it's not hateful language/content which is intended to offend
deletedover 9 years
"Any other hateful derogatory language and content intended to offend will be moderated similarly."

What if someone intends to offend another player but does not use slurs or "hateful language?"

So at this point how can you harass someone without saying a hateful comment?


don't make fun of their personal circumstances. just call em' an idiot and stuff.


Isn't being really bad at the game a personal issue?
