I'm surprised I haven't done this yet but seeing as I'm off today, I may as well write something that may please people with common sense and piss off the wannabe mods at Gamefaqs.
Gamefaqs moderators = dumbasses. I can't describe this enough. I've been the victim of Gamefaqs shitty moderation system too many times. Too many times where I'll lose three karma for TROLLING for saying "U rang?", getting warned for describing what invasion means and pretty much being a victim of blatant power abusing. It's funny, Gamefaqs is so hellbent on being fair and impartial with the moderations yet it's the last thing from it. It's true that the two examples I provided came from RaptorLC and red13n, two mods who are pretty much power abusing assholes who should have been stripped of their power.
Hell, I remember having an AIM convo with red13n once and after pissing him off, he proceeded to go ahead and warn two of my friends, TheWallsOfPain and TazenRahn with one of the posts not even violating the TOS. At most, they were NKLs. Yet it took JMC two notifications and offensive posting to get warned. Well yeah, we all know how much of a loser red is that he's actually enough of a dumbass to modify my post into saying the recent RPT had 16 alts in it, even though he was too stupid to realize that Clogger, CHaR and a long time poster of TPM were in it. But thats another story.
The moderation system is so crooked it isn't even funny. Wannabe mods of Gamefaqs are always whining to wait 24 hours for a post to get deleted. If something is blatantly violating the TOS and I get myself and at least one more person to mark it, I expect it to be deleted. But instead, I'm the one getting moderated in half the time and tons of posts posted by a stupid troll and his alts stay well after the 24 hour mark. If the mods have so much trouble getting to these posts, even going as far as blatantly ignoring some of them, it means the moderation system sucks.
Would it be so difficult to assign specific mods to specific systems? This way, messages get taken care of a lot faster and everybody is happy. No bullshit like blatant TOS violations getting avoided and having to endure the local retards at Gamefaqs spewing "wel dats not much of a tos violation" Well then why is it that I get modded for a message that's at the same level or even less than that post?
At every board I've been to, the moderation system is better. This isn't necessarily because other boards I've been to have a better method, it's because other boards aren't as hellbent on being efficient as possible with their moderation systems. It's not like Azureheights, as crappy as their forum is, tries to be impartial and unbiased as possible, hell I already exposed it. Gamefaqs keeps trying to have an impartial and effective moderation system but keeps fucking it up. A level 32 user shouldn't get an NKL for trolling where as a level 15 user would receive a 3 karma loss. Gamefaqs, so many people complain about the sites moderation because you have a flawed system.
Just recently, I received a deleted post that didn't count to my total. It got modded for self deletion. Thats a first. Way to go dumbasses, lets make a moderation because I deleted my post! It's not my fault Gamefaqs has no edit button. You would think this wouldn't be a big deal, considering I posted my message a minute later. But it's obvious this moderator is too busy giving me a moderation that doesn't even count to my total instead of dealing with a stupid and repetitive troll who infested his own topic with TOS violations.
Another flaw with the system is that it seems moderators only mark what people mark. Moderators need to visit boards more and start deleting crap that blatantly violates the TOS. Gamefaqs seems to try as hard as possible to have a really good moderation system but sometimes it seems like some of the moderators don't even give a shit. Some of them are pretty much assholes. Anyways, my point is that moderators need to take more action instead of just going into that little section of moderated messages and IGNORING a good batch of them. This accomplishes nothing and tarnishes the system and rightfully so.
BTW Gamefaqs, if moderators can't deal with all the posts that violate the TOS, then you need more moderators. It's common sense. I'd be happy to take the job, since I wouldn't mind cleaning up the idiocy over at the blue board as well as actually trying to give the moderation system a better name. Of course, Gamefaqs, as stupid as it is, will wait another 2 years to get more mods when in 2 years there will be more posters and more violations to deal with. Hey retards, making the TOS more strict isn't going to do anything. It's just going to tarnish the system further, more mods avoiding more posts and Gamefaqs adding to it's already bad reputation as a site filled with dumbasses and dumbass mods.
I also want to post something that I personally found funny.....

Why is urbandictionary a banned word? Better yet, was I modded because I said urban or modded for quoting the disguised term?

You got modded for bypassing the censor. If urbandictionary is banned, don't post urban dictionary. It's the same as posting fu ck (and not allowed).
Way to go dipshit, completely ignore my question at hand. Good job chimpy, I got modded for censor bypassing. WHY was I modded for censor bypassing? Or better yet, completely ignoring the fact that I quoted somebody else who said this. Why am I being singled out? Does this moderator not realize that somebody else posted this and that this person should be moderated for censor bypassing as well? I've marked it but I know that's not going to do anything, especially if it's some dumbass like RaptorLC or red who gets the message in his blog. Like I said, GET MORE INVOLVLED. I know many people will be like "omg ur wrong dey r involved" Well they sure as hell haven't shown me or the hundreds of other people who constantly mock the moderation system because quite frankly, it sucks.
Last time I checked, urban was not a banned word. I wasn't bypassing anything. But why the hell urbandictionary is a banned word to begin with is beyond me.
One more thing guys, you really do need to stop with retarded moderations such as these:
