Ban trolls who contribute zero to discussion and ad hom

Try it mods.

You want to ban me over every single potential subjective 'slight' I've ever written, yet trolls can bring up literally anything and derail as many times as they want, act in disgusting ways defending disgusting behaviors and nothing is done.

It's old.

This won't go the way you want it to.

People having different opinions or proving you wrong, doesn't make them trolls.

These are not Echo Chambers, these are Discussion Forums.
If you want nothing but people agreeing with you, create a Private Steam Group and invite users who agree with you.

I dunno, sounds like he just want to get banned extra hard. It would be cruel of the mods to not give him what he wants.

yeah I don't think steam is open to any ideas on moderation at all. I don't think they are going to improve. I think things would be better with no moderation, than we have now, but it is what it is.

Both of my recent threads have had people repeatedly misrepresent my position and argue against one I'm not even making over and over again, so yeah it's pretty bad but it's also just a part of nature and the community you can't control other people what they think or how they post, you can only choose how you respond to it.

These threads are also getting old.

So we've gone from everyone is a cheater, to everyone is a hidden mod, then to everyone is a bot, and now we're at everyone is a Nazi.

Sounds fun.

Ban trolls who contribute zero to discussion and ad hom

And the saga continues..

[Boblin the Goblin]

Will this also cover going to people's profile to harass them?

[mldb88]

Does this include users calling people cheaters and/or racists in lieu of an actual argument?

[C²C^Guyver |NZB|]

Or making threads about anything and everything just because the user is upset about being moderated?

They listen to constructive criticism, guess which one they don't listen to?

Having a differing opinion is not trolling, it is just a label you attach to others. Accusing someone of cheating by defintion is an ad-hominem and a way to troll others.

Affirmation is not a pre-requisite to post on a discussion forum especially if you are so entrenched in your opinion everyone else is deemed by you to be wrong.
