> My own thoughts is that the mod warnings are unfair, with those who tote the line given passes for their misbehavior, while those who don’t are slapped down hard. I also feel there are posters that use this to ‘play’ with their ideological counterparts knowing they can goad them just enough to get a mod to slap them down. In that way it’s become no longer the open exchange of ideas, but an enforced way of thinking.

Any issues you have with the moderation of the board should be raised in ATMB, not in the Pit. Please do not raise these issues here again.

No warning issued.
