The difference between the EUW / NA forum moderation team is unspeakable.

I don't mean to offend the EUW moderation team on a personal level as I have nothing with them, nor do I know them, nor do I believe that I would be able to pass right judgement on them.

But holy smacks they are sensitive and I mean ultra levels of sensitive. There is virtually absolutely, absolutely no place for even stuff like "don't be stupid", where as, here, on NA, look at this thread:

https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/HRGLALVM-irelia-nerfed-50-times-still-highest-ban-rate-in-pro-leagues-globally

The people there are somewhat heated, but still civilized. The OP himself uses the f-word. This kind of thread would get you banned on EUW, yet here, it is fine.

I don't support the usage of swear words just to be cool, but if you keep it at a low, while I agree that there are better words to describe a situation, they do add flavor, though this view is very twisted and I get it, on EUW, people get banned for anything negative when their content could just be removed if you can clearly tell they had no ill-intent.

Why so? I know different regions handle their matters differently, but this difference is huge.

nah you just gotta get lucky with the mod that sees your shit here honestly.

I've had shit like "wtf are you smoking" removed cuz it might hurt someones feelings, other times i've seen and used it myself without any consquences.

hell i got a 2 week ban for calling reddit mods neckbeards cuz apparantly that's insulting our mods.

Nah, that's actually just insulting anyone, which isn't allowed. We can tell comments directed at us from those directed at Reddit, but the real issue there is that insulting other people isn't really a good thing to do here.

yes i'm sure reddit moderator 50193 sensed my comment and got deeply offended by such a foul derogatory term. I'd take this serious but someone can legit talk about how much of a moron i am but the second i call him a headass i'll get my comment removed. The mod who dealt with it specifically said i'm free to voice my opinion on the boards mods but not insult them.

not to mention how inconsistent the moderation team is. in the end it's all just get lucky the specific mods i'm refering to don't see it, when they don't these boards are fairly enjoyable.

It’s not about being toxic/offensive. It’s about swear words being copyrighted xD

You do not get banned for writing "[removed by moderation]" into chat? Or writing "[removed by moderation]"?

Those words just instantly ban you in EU. Other swearing is "fine", till you get banned after a limit that you cannot see.

Yet, the forum is filled with "I am banned" posts. Guess the system is working "too" well.

Thankfully, sarcasm is allowed so... I am not threatened. [slayer-jinx-wink]

Ok, I think you...took it too far with this one and you will get banned for this because some words like the N-word has absolutely no place. This is not what I was talking about at all and I was talking about the forums, not the game itself.

You don't strike me as someone who will last very long in here. Good luck :)

Well, since those words were not used in any insulting nor offending format but in a question to get to know something, I doubt that I am even close of being banned.

I have no idea from where your hatred is coming, but you are a lol player, aren't you? You do not need to be reasonable.

Impressive first impression by the way. [slayer-jinx-unamused]

NA mods are SJW-esque and incompetent. I'm not sure if that's worst than sensitive

Yes, the more updated term is "SJW", but as I've said, I've been observing a lot of threads / replies and they're very, very lenient.
