    Mods, close this thread, it's irrelevant (wrong section, this one is specifically for TCG live) and that's against the rules.

    Anyways, the moderation here is kind of awful. If I quietly press report and say in the report "this post contains bad language/ bullying/ etc." nothing happens, but if I say it in a comment, they immediately get scared because people will see that and will be more likely to realise that this site is not good. I've seen people say really bad things by posting images of text instead of comments.

    personally i think it is rather unethical that you can ask for a thread to be closed because you disagree with it. mods should be doing their job uninfluenced by users

    @Flametix I think mods should probably accept requests or comments regarding the general operation of the forum. They shouldn't be so detached that they have no idea what users need or want.

    But they should definitely be as impartial as possible, especially when it comes to locking threads or banning users.

    Flags, thread locking and bans should be tools used only when necessary. Not used in the place of discussing disagreements or as weapons to bully other users.

    I think it might help if the rules were elaborated on and were more specific, or provided examples, so everyone knows what is and isn't allowed. As it stands, it is difficult to know what does or does not break the rules and moderator enforcement can seem unfair and random as a result.
