I feel that the moderators are trying to give as much freedom as possible in the forums.   It is a good thing just that we need to exercise more self control and report only the worst abusers.

I have noticed this too, I only report people If they go WAY to far, but most of my reports are reported as " inacurate ". Strange. Maybe mods are too lazy to rate reports ?

Also I've NEVER seen a mod edit a post, or warn someone. I'm all for freedom of speech but cussing and swearing and threatening ... why is this allowed ? Why have mods at all then ?

Warning people publicly in threads where moderation is occurring is not a very effective way to moderate. It just puts the person on the defensive, which makes an amicable resolution much less likely. Then there will probably be a few pages of debate over the moderation itself, which is mostly pointless. It's best done in private, unless you enjoy drama, or meta type threads.

I also rarely edit posts, your posts are your posts, and they should stay that way. If a post is worthy of moderation, then I'd rather delete it outright than edit it.

Aww yeeeaah, 100%. I don't even remember what it was for. I think it was a spam/scam thread.

I generally don't get offended easily, just move on and forget about it.

All you need to do is sit in the main "Bitcoin Discussion" forum, half the stuff posted there actually belongs somewhere else.

are threats of harming people ok on this forum ?

I can't speak to your claims, since I didn't review them; but you can pretty much assume that mods aren't going to do anything about someone who is likely joking, or isn't but can't really follow through, unless they are really being an asshat.  Being offensive to one or some isn't enough, you would have to be offensive to just about everyone, and often, to be sensored for your opinions alone.

Also, since the new reporting system was put into place, the root problem with the old one never really changed; namely some people will report people that they don't like in mass to the point of spamming the reporting system.  I, for one, grew tired of checking for these reports and finding nothing particularly noteworthly, and don't put much time into researching them anymore.

That's probably the most off-topic response, ever!

He was serious.
