What are the moderators doing?

I see posts calling others idiots and aholes and whatever, and some might be removed from moderation...but there are tons that have been up in posts for months.

Somehow im getting banned for saying "you sir, are an idiot, and heres why:"? This is low key compared to others that i still see up. What is wrong with moderators? What am i doing that's more inappropriate than them? Maybe because i mentioned riots flaws? What is it? I know its not just language or i would see so many fcking replies taken out of posts.

If you feel a post is breaking the rules, then feel free to report it either via the Report button, or by pinging a moderator on the NA Boards Discord.

You can also request further clarification on a violation through the Discord as well.

As weird as it may sound, in some cases it is how the message is delivered and the way the moderator interprets it. Remember, not everyone takes things the same way because of what they may be exposed to.

As an example: Snarf: "Pandaa, you are a smartass." Pandaa: "I rather be a smartass than a dumbass."

Now, how did you take that?

Did you take it as me calling you a dumbass indirectly?

As me simply not caring?

Perhaps me accepting it as a compliment?

depends on if someone reported the others or not, thats a pretty key factor with those ive had a ban that got heavily reduced for pretty much quoting part of a huge paragraph no joke of harassment and the paragraph stayed up till it was reported on, i might be able to help soon though ;)

To add onto what both Wilk and Panda said keep in mind that the mods are all volunteers and as such can't catch everything all of the time,

fo real. I'm constantly called stupid, dumb, idiotic, and rank shamed on the posts I make, but godforbid i jokingly say "[seekers armguard] is good, you're just bad"

You probably got your post reported by some cry baby and those posts probably did not. That is usually the difference.

I see worse shit said to people in forums but no one seems to notice because its still there after months...some moderators even reply to the posts those things are on...wtf is this games agenda? Silence the opposers? I got suspended for 24 hours making a post about riots balance changes suck.

You just said this in a PB forum post. While we do try to get to every reported post, there are some that get by. When they're extremely old, those tend to be actioned on less (with exception to extreme behavior). If you do have a post that you feel needs actioned on, feel free to reach out to us on the discord.
