    Question Question

    Hi,

    There was a conversation IGM, and some guy said "try f9" that's nice... And I aswerd: "Try Ctrl + W, that's nice as well, lol."
    And then some moderator banned me, because he didn't like my joke, I think it was MOD_Firemansam...
    Is it really not tollerated to make jokes like this?

    Kind regards,

    Luuk_The_Great

    It depends on the outcome of the joke i suppose.. i'd not tolerate people making mean jokes no matter how fun they or I found them.
    Remember, the Game itself is PEGI 7+, this means it's suppose to be a good environment for 7 year olds.

    You have to be 14 to make an account.

    OT: the game is ridiculously over-moderated with apparently nothing but nostalgic talk about old games/tv shows allowed. Even if someone isn't instantly warned by a mod the spam generated by the dozen or so self-appointed chat captains quoting rules at people is enough to put most off from bothering to use the chat - log in and minimize the chat / use a channel without global.

    Sooo a joke such as Ctr + W is worse if a child of 7 years old read this?

    I'd say it's a bit mean spirited yes. it's up there with the tired and old Alt+F4 of old times..

    The PEGI rating is still 7+, and a 7 year old can make an account with an adults consent.

    The only way anyone under 14 can make an account is by lying on the age section of the sign-up process making the pegi rating kind of irrelevant anyway, if i made an account for my little girl then i would have 2 accounts which i thought was against the rules.

    But... Cmon... I tell a joke about ctrl + W, and I get a chat ban?! Ugh...

    My chat ban has expired now, but I still think it's childish to get banned for a joke like this...

    Well, its rather redundant to moan about it on the forums
    As soon as the Agora is up and running well have to make a point of raising the question regarding the PEGI rating and signup age.

    and i am sure theres bound to be many discussions regarding moderation.
