its funny that they don't allow what you outlined, but allow other types of political speech, especially when the shit around swifty's sexual assault was going on
pretty cringe they let that fly but just ban all the other posts - what do you except from a buncha snowflake sjw mods tho who never leave their house. they have mod drives on this site how many times a year?
its sad.

Just like politics, religion etc. That's why such topics are forbidden on most forums. Because they only create problems

You're right, The mod owes you an apology for infracting you for the wrong thing.
I have enough of EA ruining great franchises and studios, forcing DRM and Origin on their games, releasing incomplete games only to sell day-1 DLCs or spill dozens of DLCs, and then saying it, and microtransactions, is what players want, stopping players from giving EA games poor reviews, as well as deflecting complaints with cheap PR tricks.
I'm not going to buy any game by EA as long as they continue those practices.
Can very easily lead to being tracked/found if it's hyper specific.
Usually leads to harassment.
See above. I'm sure it doesn't feel great to have people mock you about something you can't change/control.
This one should be obvious with how global events have been happening around this topic. It's a very difficult slope to navigate without turning the forums into a base of operations for these peoples.
In the immortal words of Janine Melnitz, "Just don't go in there."
Yep, it's the same with those shouting TOXIC! in forums and social media as games, videos etc. I see some youtube videos about people in games etc that talks about how toxic those others were. And I am there watching it and just shakes my head, because the one who is really toxic is the person complaining about the others. Some people just can't see their own flaws and since they have that toxic trigger as a emotional reaction they don't understand that the issue starts with them.
Got a few examples here as well. A user thinks they get infraction just because they are disagreeing with people, and just ignores how condescending they are to the others while disagreeing. Their exaggerated sense of self-imposed importance trumps everything else. Textbook narcissism.

Gaming and WoW stuff
Appreciate your time with friends and family while they're here. Don't wait until they're gone to tell them what they mean to you.
Lol, if anything the forum isn't moderated enough.

Sometimes I question infractions I might encounter but...Off topic really needs it and sometimes wow depending on who's talking.

Euuuhh its a gaming forum for starters.
And joke about mental disorders....you are kidding right? If i look at the subjects you want to "talk" about. Sounds more like you are not happy this gaming forum is not a extreme right wing nest of hatred?!
And look up freedom of speech laws in general and the forums guidlines. They are well within both of them to moderate like they do.
But lets look at your points:
Not allowed to ask about medical issues. <<< euuuh its not a medical forum
Not allowed to discuss mental disorders. <<< there is nothing to discuss. again not a medical forum. and hacks with bad advice and no experience can do more harm.
Not allowed to joke with above. <<< only very low life/sick/ a bunch of curse words people make fun off problems like this.
Not allowed to discuss conspiracy theories. <<< good. this is not a extreme left or extreme right wing forum. And again, these things hurt people.
It is just about moderated enough to prevent the forums from devolving into an alt-right cesspit.
Don't like it? Go someplace else.
Pretty much, so many threads got created with the sole purpose of antagonizing people and sparking a flame war and often nothing happens until we're 10 pages deep, people are shit flinging left and right and the moderation just locks the thread then, nothing more.
Not gonna even talk about off-topic / political cuz things were 10 times worse there until I filtered them out and stopped checking, but I can expect nothing improved on that front.
Also prepare this thread to be locked too for "discussing moderation".
