Thats why I tend to only post once in a thread once I have all my thoughts gathered on a given topic, my own threads excluded

Back in the days when I played WoW I used to visit Elitistjerks for pve related information and theorycrafting. This forum was absolutely beautiful.

The thing is, EJ covers very specific topics whereas TL is a really huge community with thousands and thousands of people talking about hundreds different and / or unrelated topics. Furthermore I believe it's the mods choice not to go berserk and enforce the rules, or create stricter ones. So I understand why TL moderation is not perfect, however let it be known that I definitely appreciate it.
I'd say that TL moderation is quite effective and strikes at the right places at the right times so it's fine by me

It's because all the mods love the site and take it very seriously. So they have a vested interest!

Probably because all dumb and pointless posts get deleted. I'm pretty sure that already clears like 99% of trolling by itself. Post count is also a good indicator of a troll. I think the troll in TL have evolved to a point where the people they troll don't even know they are being trolled. Only the subtlest of trolls will survive.


Exactly. TL is a gauntlet. Strict modding (although not as strict as in the past) breeds only the best trolls. Those too weak get exiled, and only the best can thrive in an environment such at this. That way, you know that if any troll has existed for a good amount of time on TL, they're at least good at it.

If you have an issue with me personally, you're welcome to private message me as I've always said.
I don't speak condescendingly to you or make personal remarks towards your personality (not that I recall of).

Without provocation, you've spoken down to me that has hurt me. There is no two-way street.

(I'm open to constructive or justified criticisms, not demeaning comments towards my nature or distortion of my actions or their intent).

Are you a mod there or something (I remember someone saying they were).
You ever write a blog about the toils of Wikipedia?

I just want to say that amongst all the flaming we receive every day it is always incredibly nice for staff to see a thread like this. So thank you for that.

TL is certainly amongst the best on the web. Jalopnik used to be as great, IMHO, as TL and had some amazing posters but it was never the same after the Diaspora.

Of course, the biggest trolls on TL are actually the mods. so I wouldn't call it troll-free!

Yeah, that is the only reason I ever signed up. I am not much for forums because the internet is crappy at a lot of sites. I love TL for this. I have gotten a warning once and a temp-ban once, both were my fault for not following rules properly. Not that I was trolling at all, I just did not read everything right on a couple of posts. I have this fear now of the ban, but not that I am complaining, I think it is totally fair. I love TL.

Absolutely epic. I can't believe nobody before me has quoted and applauded this! Well-written/adapted! Winter is Coming :D

Seems like vet users and mods troll a bit but it's mostly harmless fun.

I'm trying to just avoid political threads from now on to avoid the massive trolling there, outside of there people are rude but not necessarily trolling, just very blunt.
