Can moderating just stay as it is

I don't think your fully grasping what a rule is.

Telling someone to stop breaking the rules should be an obvious edit

Being edited for saying that you think they've posted in the wrong section is called stupid moderation (no offense)

The annoying thing about some mods is that they seem to need a 2000 word essay on the exact rule otherwise they just edit the slightest things like PEOPLE JOKING ABOUT IN SPAM

I'm not being funny Lee or whoever you are but why are you being so condescending to Richie? There's no need for it... The rule is pointless, "omg u broke da rulezzzz" it's hardly enforcing any sort of moderation. Silly rule imo.

Don't patronize me. Ever since I joined the forum not once have I been contacted in regards to posts such as 'omgz you just swore' it's stating the obvious not trying to moderate. So you are the one who needs to wrap your head around the rules a little better than me, find out what your job actually is to do. Stop telling people off for doing nothing wrong.

Yep, it's Lee - Im enforcing the rules and I don't believe he said that at all.

Just like to say that I've had a usernote removed for joking around in spam saying that someone avoided the filter

I do think that the 'leave the moderating to the moderators' is a bit of a silly rule but its there to stop people trying to take things into their own hands.

If something breaks a rule- report it. I don't really see the issue... There's no need to post saying 'Already posted here: _'- just report the post. In some ways posting 'Already posted here _' actually breaks the pointless posting rule as it has no relevance to the topic at all.

As moderators we can't edit one on the grounds that it breaks the rule and not edit others.

TL;DR if something breaks a rule, report it. There is no need to post about it.

And to be honest this rule has only recently risen in priority it was always left but we agreed it should be clarified and enforced. I am actually doing my job by enforcing these rules.
