Leila Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 So many things about the filtering system make me angry or just annoy me. For example, not able to use the words suck, nut, etc. that could possibly be taken in an obscene context. Also, I assume to prevent cyber bullying, the word queer is not allowed. Queer is a huge part of my self identity and I believe an important issue, but I will let that one go as it's a word quick to be used by bullies and trolls, and I can see how it can be argued that it's just not a subject children should be learning about on an internet board intended for gaming. But still, I am so sick of not being able to send Neomails and not knowing why. <_< My biggest fear is definitely being silenced. I use the Neoboards for avatar chat and NC trading and I have met many friends there. I'd hate to be silenced and/or frozen and not be able to contact these people anymore. And what's worse is, because they're not clear and their filters are so overreaching, I have no idea what might cause it. Every time I get that error message saying not to post/mail inappropriate content, I panic thinking that this might be the time I get silenced by a bot. And I really don't need that kind of stress in my life from something I do for fun. Also, don't say stinkin', OP. Goodness knows that might be a "dirty word." :worried:
Lady Lyuba Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 Also, don't say stinkin', OP. Goodness knows that might be a "dirty word." They even think "something" is a dirty word! You can't say ANYTHING on Neo! >:U
TwistedRose Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 I got a warning once on neo for talking about my dreamie :(
Mr. X Posted October 22, 2011 Posted October 22, 2011 it's not that TNT is strict. It's really that they can't/are too lazy to have a human moderator watch the boards. and that they're filters are utterly worthless
Sweetdang Posted October 23, 2011 Posted October 23, 2011 I don't know.... I don't blame them for that. Considering the thousands of active users, it'll be super hard to be modding everything and going through all posts/neomail. Impossible, even. They just should be reasonable when people try to explain themselves.
Crimson Posted October 23, 2011 Posted October 23, 2011 And there are those that deliberately commit a billion different rule offenses and then say "I didn't mean to!" or "That's a rule?! O.o"........ IMHO there should be a limit to how many board posts you can make a day that goes up as your account gets older so that trolls can't keep making new accounts and spamming.
TungstenPunk Posted October 24, 2011 Posted October 24, 2011 I am not okay with TNT freezing people at the rate they do. I hardly post on their BBS because of this fear. I got frozen for saying "Packages of cheetos are frustrating to open". There is nothing wrong with that sentence.
