I think you guys are getting this a bit wrong.
This is a forum for our company products, not a place to troll or banther and talk bullshit.
We assign moderators, give them rights and tell them what rules people should follow.
The main purpose is to allow the community that plays our games a nice place to discuss things including our games but also other things.
The community can not agree with the rules or the moderators or anything, but they have to accept them as they are.. they can complain about those things to the head moderator that can forward complaints to us if he deems it needed.
The idea of this project was to allow a better form of contact between the regimental community perhaps and the moderation staff.. but to have no problem with people being punished by biased regiment members it is a function without any actual moderation power like warnings or bans.
Your post is contradictory. You say this forum is for talking about the game, and then you slip in the bolded part. Unless you want to define what exactly can and cannot be talked about on this forum, un related banter is technically, according to you, allowed. You can't have it both ways, Vince.
Then, if you define it, you need someone to enforce those rules. And we all know that the enforcers need oversight from the community enforced, hence this thread. So what is your point?
