Heh! That was a good one!
I occasionally post in the Steam forums and they have some of the strictest policies and moderators I've ever seen.
If you even think about writing a swear word (even with asterisks), not only will it be deleted, but you'll get a PM from a moderator telling you that you'll be banned the next time it happens.
(they've seemed to have eased up a bit, but not much)
And the moderators are totally drunk on power.
They'll permanently lock a thread at the drop of a hat if they want to.
I can't tell you how many threads I've read on there that were locked and I asked myself each time, "
Why is this thread locked? It doesn't need to be."
A thread won't even be coming close to getting out of hand and sure enough, they'll lock it.
Don't believe me?
CLICK HERE, then scroll down and look at all the padlock icons on the left next to each thread.
There have been a few threads where someone publicly called the moderators on their constant thread locking and can you guess what happened?
Yep...they locked the thread!
Whenever I post there, I always feel like I'm walking on eggshells. You've really got to be careful there.
