Uh... Gone I guess. Think Giantbomb. Also the new TOU, no moderation leveling, seriousness of moderation does not matter, 3 mods and you are out. 2 will give you 7 says suspend, one will give you a warning. Friendly name calling will not be allowed. Calling someone out? not allowed. Going "lol"? Not allowed.

There supposedly was still going to be signatures (but more like banners).

How do you know friendly name calling is now allowed? If they are going back to the old rediculously strict TOU, I don't see myself lasting long before I'm banned. lol

If true, it sounds like the old TOU where you could get modded for anything. Only now you get banned for it. Is the forum not dead enough as it is now?

Yeah I don't understand how this is supposed to attract more people to the site. If anything it will just drive people away because they don't like it and then even more will be leave due to being banned under the new new TOU.

I just don't get the thinking behind how this site is run. Do the GS brass not get that these changes are almost unanimously hated?

That rule is only for hate speech and threats, based on the blog GS posted. TC is trolling.

No it's not go to the lounge and read the last 60 pages. It includes any derailing or random "lol's" as well. Site wide.
