It seems as if the mods have been excessively strict recently. If a mod has they even the slightest objection to anything they will close the thread and say the same dumb shit all the time. Giving us the dumbest reasons for the closing of the threads. Their strictness has severely detracted from how much fun one can have on BF2s, unless of course you are posting in DST where you can post hateful shit and personal attacks without the slightest repercussion.

However what annoys me even more is the the mods were never this repressive until a few months ago. It used to be that you could post a thread without the mods changing the thread name. It used to be that you could condemn someone for saying stupid shit that no one cares about without having your post get deleted.

So if it wasn't like this always then what happened?

1st AWM was for posting k, lol as a response to a thread
2nd AWM was for posting a screenshot from COD4 showing fpscheats.com as the number 1 guy

And the ban was for making the 10,000 votes lez do it thread

I went with I dunno. However it probably has something to do with keeping things relevant and keeping the spam to a minimum, if I had to guess.

Guys, I like men.

Are you sure it's the administration that's changed, not the userbase?

There were obviously problems on the temp forums, the rules were not enforced as strictly and in many cases that was taken advantage of. There was also an outbreak beginning when the server came back up, and we've been trying to break it. See the post above, or maybe a few above at this point, why did Master post that? It's just a stupid 4chan style response to a relatively well thought out post that demeans any serious topic posted. This is the kind of crap that has been on the rise of late, and we aren't going to stand for it.

But this site was never supposed to be serious? You mods are taking it way to seriously. We don't want or need to be tight-asses, that's not fun. Dozens of BF2s are just trying to have fun on the internets and the 26 (or probably 22 since like 4 mods pretty much left) are surpressing their fun.

Also why do you have to change the title of every thread made? Funny titles > gay informative titles.

Master, I've been to 4chan, I know what it's like, that is the type of response. There's nothing wrong with that their, but this is BF2S, and your posts should reflect that. Granted I just noticed that actually is one of the poll options (nice poll Docta ) so relatively legitimate in this case, but you can't say that exact line hasn't been posted in other serious threads.

How is it up to you to decide how serious this site is? That decision belongs only to chuy, and moderators only enforce the decisions he makes. If he has a problem with one of us, I'm sure he'll voice his concern.

As far as fun, what you deem fun may be stupid and immature to the next guy, and what they think is fun may be serious and boring to you. Suppressing your fun maybe, but while making it a more worthwhile place to visit for others.

Appropriate titles aren't just for keeping the index pages looking neat, it's imperative to have related titles on threads that may need to be searched for, especially ones on news stories such as the one I know you're referring to about the RFID tags. No one will ever think to search "PEDOBEAR ALERT" or whatever it was named, and it's a pain in the ass to try to find a thread that you remember, but not the inane title.

That's because the search function sorts on post date / alphabetical name only, no relevance search.

The search function here sucks

Like FM suggested, it is a spam crackdown to get BF2s back from the chaos that really began with the "10000 posts lez do it" thread and then carried over to the temp forums.  When the site came back on-line, did you notice that getting into this site is now more difficult?  That's to cut down on spammers, trolls, forum abusers, etc.

Simply,
4chan is not spelled B.F.2.S.

If you want to have tweenager lulz, then go on a tweenager site.

obviously it's either freudian compensation, but don't you think that's also part of the bigger, more encompassing fact that they're trying to hide their Homosexuality.

joke:

The mods are being more strict?
Maybe it's because there's more BS on the forums everyday...

I think they're doing fine.
