Thank you to the moderators

And the forum rules have spoken too

General Forum Rules:
Please keep all posts on topic. Making off topic posts will only cause confusion and miscommunication. When you create a new thread, please do not mix multiple unrelated topics into a single thread. Instead, please create an individual thread based on each topic.

Oh please, don't bother invoking the Forum rules when practically everyone in here has violated them, including yourself.

The point is dont pretend to be all holy if you arent. Also I absolutely agree, if there was moderation he'd be one of the first to be gone.

that I would disagree with. there are others, well known entities who spend their every moment on the forums basically turning the forum rules into pretzels for their own twisted amusement (thread necros, topics intended to cause drama etc) that would be higher on the list

pretty sure them and their many alts would be higher, but thats just an opinion. not defending them, just saying I would hope there would be bigger fish that get fried first

Yeah, leaving all biases aside, Id first target the people who make threads solely for inciting fights between people here, so anything about sexuality, religion and so on together with insults, people can’t possibly see a derailment as the worst thing going on here do they?…..

Unless the derailment turns into personal attacks, like it did for a few pages of this thread....which the mods may or may not eventually delete.

A lot of forums in general have a no-politics rule. That would have been a good addition to this place.

Some of my closest friends in ESO were people I was on the opposite end of the political spectrum (well...maybe not opposite as I consider myself a centrist), which I knew because even with a no-politics rule little things come out here and there. But most of the time without other relationships and among strangers, it just leads to divisiveness or worse. I really prefer not knowing and just enjoying each other's company over a shared interest in XIV.

I agree, but that would also require the rule to be enforced. Rules don't matter if there's no penalty for breaking them.

Politics is against the forum's ToS so is the use of foul language. The only time it's allowed is when you're talking about the stuff that's in game.

Would be nice if it was actually enforced.

Everyone in here would be gone just as fast if they elected to moderate stringently enough. Since they'd actually bother to discern between what is genuine and what would constitute passive-aggressive behaviour aimed to skirt the rules.

Who goes first is absolutely irrelevant since we've all arguably gone there enough to do something that would warrant a temp at least.
