It's stated at the top of this forum. Granted I need to change the wording of it, news isn't breaking anymore, but the core concept stands. It was off topic and I removed it without question. Part of being in a community means understanding how that community works. You wouldn't want people to waltz into yours and begin breaking the rules would you? Same applies for us. I'll update the thread, but it'll be along the lines of the bold.

Be a user, offer advice, give help....dont reference your mod status on another site, it's really cringeworthy you would do that

It was only used in this case to help the op understand that there are rules in place, there is also a pm system to allow him to speak privately to a moderator to get the reason for the topics removal.

That was my advise to him as the rules are pretty much the same over there

Plus most people reference it against me anyway.

You dont need to reference anything to point out the rules to someone........you simply point them out.......in your case, from the shadows, happy in the knowledge that you perhaps know more than most.

Being a mod, im sure you would agree with that.....noone really likes a try hard, despite what they say to their faces

@Abel-
Contact Foxhound for help in why the thread was locked. I have been on the forums for years, and pretty much all mods are gamers like us. Just ask him if there is a way to make a thread like that without it being locked/removed. Tell him you are just looking for community involvement and trying to create a sense of unity amongst us. All the mods are pretty cool, at least they have been in my experience.

i'll might do that once. thx... ogh. and the apologise thing. as long you respect me, i respect you. so if you want me to stick on these forums. i might do... but for now... i had enough of this.

yea that is the problem. wich mod? only thing i know is that the topic has been removed. nothing more? so what do i have to do? knock on the staff-room and wonder who the hell removed my topic?

As there are only two active mods, it could be one of two, Foxhound or Cutpruse, try contacting one and they can explain it to you which you needing to make this thread, which will only get you in more trouble

i don't care putting myself in more trouble. if i am banned. so be it. this topic is my right to complain. and with this topic. i express my anger to the forums. altough its completely useless in a way...

You are fine. I speak Polish and English but I am not a good writer or cannot read. I think you are doing great, keep up the great work and thanks for accepting my apology. Do not quit the forums, stick around, we need good guys. Your other post was good as well.

@BigB- Whats up stranger, have not seen you in forever. I am still playing this game, but go back to MW2 once I get enough of the awful netcoding.

I am fine, don't actually have this game anymore, it annoyed me after 3 days, traded it in for Hot Pursuit

I apologize for that. I did not notice the different flag and automatically assumed the poor writing was because you were a child. Once again, sorry for that, that was completely my fault. For being a belgian, that was extremely good.
