Surviving the /qa/ coaltalogue - Day 37
I noticed that many of the newer users believe that the mods must spend their whole time arguing with people and throwing people off the site (and rightfully so). Does the site need to be redesigned to combat this? I think not.
If a mod points out that some post is out of scope or off topic or whatever, then it's up to the person to call the mod a moron, jerk, idiot, troll, censor, etc. and being banned for a week instead of replying with a polite response. "Calling people names" is the first defence that any lowly anonymous forum user has, and they aren't taught that - it's like an instinct! This is a basic tenant of forum discussion. Bantering with the tranny jannies will always be /qa/ culture, though.
