When I report a forum moderator what happens.

I question if there's any accountability as there's a lot of malicious, and serious personal preferential crap going on at the forums atm among the forum staff. I don't think anyone asked y'all to police the forums to sate your own egos. When someone's going off the deep end really laying into someone, posting smut, (oh look something you muted me for reasonably calling out), and being 100% off topic. (Oh and racism stuff, deal with that too) But deciding what kind of writing styles you can use is abusive and honestly makes the community resent you further.

Where's the accountability here, I seriously want half of the Fmods removed, and replaced. (But only if 100% necessary.)

Do you have a point here? This is not a League of Legends Player Behavior issue. Or are you just trying to bait the moderators into removing another post so you have something else to fuel your outrage?

Submit a support ticket to Riot, or take it to the proper venue -

Nobody is going to share in your outrage that someone removed your post for being in the wrong board, no matter how much you abuse the voting on the site.

So you're upset at the mods for doing their jobs? Petty. So petty.

The heralds oversee the moderators, and we do have Riot oversight.

Another moderator reviewed the action brought up in this thread (In this case, Wilk reviewed an action by Ulanopo) and weighed in/clarified the removal there.

We're always open to feedback, as we're not gonna get every call right. That being said, I do agree on this with my fellow mods: one sentence does not meet the minimal requirements of making a gameplay thread, and it'd have been perfectly fine reposting it elsewhere in the forums, such as GD, or Rant.

Wilk's notoriously one of the worst moderators, just ignore him and you're fine enough, downvote him if you see him talking down to someone but don't expect him to change from it

You disagreeing with the rules doesn’t mean the moderator are wrong for enforcing them. Maybe you should go find a community with rules you like more.

You could always submit a support ticket so that an actual Riot employee will look at any poor behavior. However, Riot benefits pretty nicely from forum moderators. A tiny droplet of e-power and you have several people willing to work for free.

I was a video game forum moderator once for an MMO. I felt on top of the world deleting threads and quashing trolls. Then I turned 18 and realized spending my free time playing games instead of policing people talking about games was more fun. But to each his own!
