Moderation is vague

[Uedo]

Lots of posts of non-descript warnings and locking of posts, can someone else oversee the moderation of the forums? It's becoming a repeat of past instances - I thought this was explained and resolved on discord?

Dont take things too personal. 

Treat klei locking your post as a badge of honour and move on

1. Have fun!
2. Be respectful.
3. Don’t be a jerk.
4. Stay on topic.

I try not to call people out directly on the forum - because people make mistakes and there is no reason to make a thing out of it. But because you asked specifically I can say that in the post that you were warned about, you were directly poking fun at another forum member. 

So - you were given a 0 point warning to remind you to keep things polite and without personal attacks. 

And to repeat from a previous thread:

There is a lot of rude behavior coming from forum regulars. Then, more rude comments in response. 

I don't want to have to keep locking threads because you all keep butting heads. 

If you don't like somebody else, put them on ignore and move on.

If you can't post politely, don't post.

If you have multiple warnings for being rude on threads, you're going to get a suspension, and if you have had one before it will be doubled.

It wasn't the locking that was the problem :P

It's fine anyways - it's been resolved again. 
I'm just fortunate that we're not the only ones noticing, the forum doesn't just have a bad rep because of player posts

You just did though - At what point was I speaking in anything but generality Joe? 

Was it in reference to my post 'He's my favourite fiction'?, my bad - the full sentence was supposed to be 'He's my favourite fiction writer?' 
Was it still poking fun of him? You seem certain of a lot of stuff Joe.

It's rather vague when a post gets locked without any explanation, i.e. which rule was violated.
