seeing as there have been numerous bans and flame wars in this section,wouldn't it be fair to ask for a mod-free,anything goes(except sexual imagery/links & piracy) sub-section?

this could be used to express ourselves w/o vocal restraint.

putting up a poll.mods please consider it

When mods weren't active people were like "No moderation. TDF sucks". Now when moderated, "Mod-Free TDF" :|
So NO, it has to be moderated.

Rofl. Now this is interesting. As a matter of fact Ill agree with it just for giggles and laughs. If this is in any reference to the threads I have moderated then let me put it in black and white.

I don't go over and nitpick every other word that comes out of any persons mouth. If I find that verbal usage goes beyond a certain limit then yes I do hand out warnings and then if continued I do give out infractions.

Then there's another problem with moderating posts which beg to be flamed. Anyway I'm not going to go all out justifying my actions. If you feel that my way of handling was inappropriate by all means just pop Anorion an email and ask him to make a regular user. I for certain wouldn't mind.

people get banned even when being careful hence we need complete freedom.a mod-free section will bring much needed entertainment and many emotionally charged threads :p after all most folks here spend atleast a couple of hours here everyday

On a serious note, instead of a Mod-free section, I would prefer a vBulletin 4 forum upgrade.

Having an opposite view is fine as far as I care. However your opposite opinion seemed more like flame bait to me.

People don't get banned simply after being careful as you say.

Well its the provocative part you got warned for. Either way I don't recall only warning you. The same warning was issued to anyone who used any kind of verbal abuse on the thread. None of you were banned for any of it .

However I did ban one person who in my call earned it and should have been banned for a year just for being ridiculously insane for posting that much trash talk on the forums.

Anyway its not like the Mods can create a new section so sure yeah whatever floats everyone's boat.

TDF is NOT the place for posting "anything you want". For that you have 'other' places on Internet. Mods helps keeping this forum clean.

IMO, Mods are doing their work and there is no need to have a "Mod-Free section" on THIS forum.

and BTW, this poll is useless.
Neither my PC is in living room / I don't like badwords nor I want a Mod-free section.

If you want people to vote, give proper choices. :|

yo ratedr 'sup man ?

I say a mod-free section would be a nice idea. Actually you should turn the fight club into a mod free section (ofcourse it should be moderated for piracy/pornography/spam...but otherwise, let the members post anything they want!).

Yea.. like going to a place where there are no law enforcements. Where one can murder any one.. one can rape any one.. one can rob any bank.

I read some user telling mods are allowed to mod sexual imagery, piracy. Then, what will be the contents of the posts in the sub forum! May be insulting other members, making stupid points, going ga-ga irrationally, etc. IMO, porn, piracy are way better than this stupid mess.


It id the stupidest idea. If you want mod free thing, get into an private IRC or hang out in a conference. But where there will be permanent records.. I think mod free is a bad idea. You may turn back and laugh or feel ashamed by your post when the fire inside you has been put out.

P.S.: No offense to any one.

why can't we have a "stupid" section for that.you can look at many international user oriented sites and their forums.freedom of speech is what every user needs while being online and i mean beyond the vernacular american slangs.and racism shouldnt be an issue here where we rarely know the users in real life

Er what? Racial slurs shouldn't be minded now? I swear the day a section be created with this single criteria allowed and that will be the day I end my stay here. Whether you know a person in real life should not be the basis for justifying your conduct on a forum.

This thread isn't Mod free at the moment. As I've always said be free to discuss about the above but do not plan on making the thread a nightmare else I surely will be the first person to ban whoever does.

no rhitwick let it remain open. atleast it will be a fitting reply to the OP. doesn't it show the freedom of speech? under Geek Life you are discussing such a topic which half the posters term useless! No one is modding this thread which is exactly what OP wants. :)
Mod or no Mod..how does it matter? You are here to make your point in discussions. Do it in civilized manner and you won't even feel the presence of mods. Atleast I have personally felt that way.

All I'm saying is, this idea is not all that bad.

Visit the Football channel, and you'll know what a genuine argument is. We swear, troll, flame. But forget about it and DONT take anything personally. Though I'm not surprised that not everyone can be as "mature". :rolleyes:

Request denied. The discussions forum is as close to a "non moderated section" as you'll get. In case someone thinks he was wrongly banned/warned, please notify other mods/admins and we can take this up on a case to case basis. Closing this thread.
