Abuse of the Report function

Giving feedback to his suggestions is allowed too though

The flag system is community based. If a post gets flagged, you can edit it after 10 minutes to get it unflagged. Also, moderators are the only ones deciding whether a post stays, or gets removed. Even if it is flagged, you can view the hidden content.

Warning a user their post will get flagged if it does not get edited is not the same as threatening them to remove their post. We have no such authority as you said. But that does not remove our privilege to flag the post to the moderators if we have concerns about the post’s contents.

Don’t be so childish. We ain’t blackmailing anyone

And many people think the user should get banned for these posts. Everyone has their opinion.

I’d say that flagging the posts for moderation - again, it is not cencoring or deleting or whatever as the post can still be read - is for now a decent enough solution to prevent toxicity. All he has to do is do a minor edit to the thread to prevent it as well.

Show me ANYONE who supports him

Toxicity? Ahem… mayby his ideas are bit ā€˜trollish’ but he is not one who spreads toxicity in his topics…

Baiting out toxicity by making a post that he can predict beforehand will get bad reactions can be considered trolling.

And no I do not care whether he does this intentionally or whether he actually needs people telling him this 1000 times to understand it. 10 times should be enough for any normal person to understand what will get bad reactions, and what will spark a genuine discussion.

He’s the one baiting for toxicity - i.e flaming

oh noes… someone else not amused… could there be more than just me?

I’ve given up on them - they are all in my ignore for 4 months now - whereas the guy who they hate - I’m happy to read all his.

Nice, you are three now, supporting P2W and pay to progress

Don’t you find it funny that everyone who wants more premium stuff is a CBT tester?

After he himself backtracked like we suggested and proposed it differently like we suggested, the only negativity in the thread was you hating on the haters from earlier. It was a nice discussion. But it would not have been possible, and has proven to be impossible, with the original post.

Again, we did not ask for much. edit this one line out so we can have a nice discussion. He did not want to. This is the result.

He actually edits his texts to make them more clickbait-y

Even his ideas are ā€˜not so good’ those are still good as his haters ideas.

I don’t even care that much about that part.

My main issue with him is that he knowingly makes a post with these small bad parts in them that just piss people off. Without that one line, we can have a good discussion.

I think that’s a bit strong - some of his ideas are pretty much arrant nonsense, while others are very unwelcome P2W - he’s only had 1-2 reasonable ideas IIRC - and at least 1 of those was from someone else (tracer ammo colours) - but it is possible to say so without hassling the moderators by flagging posts like it’s going out of fashion.
