What power do Mods have now?

Seriously, I miss it when rules were enforced. You can say "just mute them" but now Literally every thread on the Flood is about religion or Politics, do you expect me to mute everyone? When people were banned for making these threads, not many people tried to make them, and instead made Good threads, funny threads and a few troll threads, which could be fun to read. Now everyone is so caught up in talking about Religion (even I get the temptation) that hardly any Good threads are made. My point is, I miss the old system.

  • Personally I like the freedom being tested here with self governance. I got this nagging feeling that the new B.Net board itself might be a social testing stage for Destiny as well. If you don't like the content being discussed then mute the user who's offending you. Trolls will try to bait you into a response for attention, to be edgy, or just not really giving a damn, but if you can't see them or they see you then it defeats their ability to affect you. I like that a lot. Given time board trolls will only have a certain percentage of users who will actually see them and it might make some the smarter ones forgo such direct cursing, or racism, and distateful dialogue. If you see intelligent posters you like then follow them right away and build the board you want to participate in. I'm following a lot of guys who I argue with constantly, but they present thoughtful discourse and I can see their counter points. But I can see the mods having to do their jobs come Destinys launch due to the huge influx of new users who will not understand the mute button or it's true intent until about three months in when things settle down.
