The forum has threads entitled “Share your covidiot stories”, posters asking other posters “what the fuck are you talking about?”, threads that have been from the very first post clear debates (not general questions or humble opinions, or mindless pointless stuff …), oodles of snark in many threads, a poster (yes reported with no action taken) going “Riiight” with the admitted clear intent of shitting on a thread that he considers a worthless discussion as some persistently do not agree with him. All of which is fine. The explicitly political is excluded. Also fine. It could hijack almost any thread, even the whole forum, otherwise.
But at the same time it has a moderator who claims, with what I suspect would be a straight face if I saw it, that the forum is moderated at GQ behavior standards.
Resolved: debates regarding SARS-CoV-2 belong in QZ and extremely sporadic and capricious enforcement of GQ level standards while functional norms are very different is unacceptable.
