Sensational Moderation

[Skajo]

No, because every post agreeing with the OP is open to challenging, as you yourself did. You asserted that your post should be left alone and not challenged. THAT is why your post would be considered pointless. Nobody told you that you shouldn't say you disagree and just leave them to be positive.

People who post "I agree" can be challenged, just that they weren't.

In which case there is no such thing as a pointless post as every post containing "asdlnsakjndas" can be challenged such replies as "Why did you post that?" prompts discussion in the thread. Brilliant workaround I have to admit.

In which case every post agreeing with the OP's original statement is classed as pointless in your eyes as it CANNOT prompt discussion - merely agreeing and therefore it shows that you're only in favour of positive opinions on these matters and therefore disregard those that oppose it. I understand what you're saying but if someone can 'legally' post "I agree" then I can't understand why someone cannot 'legally' post "I disagree" without being obliged to provide examples and expand on their point. That's the last post I make in this thread because I don't want to not prompt discussion and all that :rolleyes:

You neglect the or in the rule.

A11. Do not post pointlessly – A pointless post has no relevance to the topic, any previous post or is meaningless (ghnrgher etc). A pointless thread either has no meaning, is something posted that is not true (e.g. false story in news and rumours) or a thread that doesn't prompt a discussion (eg. post the colour of socks you're wearing).

Or being the very essential word there.

Haha great to see a shift of rhetoric from just a few months ago where there were countless of complaints about moderation.

So well done to Matt, Garion and the team for the great job
