Too much moderation

Do we really need all these moderated threads, constantly deleting posts and editing the smallest ammount of banter.

We play an MMO we aint snowflakes, we are suppose to be at war, let the banter and flames happen within reason. It doesnt need to be toxic to have some drama, this just looks like a dead game with no competitive edge.

If people are offended if someone says daggerfall sucks, sure let them report it.

Im sure people remember the old Bloodthorn and Thornblade threads they was actually more fun than the game.

    We do.....but this is much more than just over moderation. Its more nefarious than that.....this is what happens when you are incompetent and have an army of moderators working when no coders are working---they kill any suggestion that the allocation of resources is out of balance and simply silence all push back from the community or kill any questions that might have some merit to them. If you cant answer and dont have the talent to fix the problem, use the resources you have to silence that getting out to the public you plan on robbing of cash on the next chapter release. Its the most ***-esque approach one could have and its where we are today. Even the moderators are no longer following the rules of the game itself, they are required to message people with the reasons threads and posts are taken down, yet they haven't been doing that either for quite a while now.

    Can't agree more.

    MMO is pvp, pvp on forum may exist ;)
    It's a part of the fun.

    we are suppose to be at war,

    I see the issue here.

    The forum is not a place for war. The game is.

    I thought I was the only one who felt this way. I am on eggshells in this game and on the forums. It’s a rated E game. There is no way this noncursing , no blood having, non nudity showing, reporting every negative thing about eso game is rated E.

    The forum category is alliance war. I dont feel i need to say anymore.

    Some players are just people who just light attack people on a keep wall and this is enjoyment, but i hope i say most of us want something competitive an edge. If we take a nasty death i hope someone comes on the forum and slags us off for it, gives the drive and motivation to keep performance high.
