Once you have passed the moderation period (think of it as a test), you will be able to post normally, just like all the other retards.

What kind of posts are we being protected from? Spambots? Shitposters?

Could we get a little taste of what the moderation queue protects us from?

EDIT: And INCLINE of Diablo 3 gold farmers. At least they know that Diablo 3 is not a cRPG. It's a shitty Adventure Game.

You know Jaesun, next time someone calls you a faggot for deleting/moderating/retardoing, stop doing it for a few days and let the whiner drown in Diablo 3 spam. That might make some of them come to their senses.

On a more serious note I hadn't realize there were THAT many adbots here now.

If he stops, you won't see that shit anyway - they go to the queue automatically. All new posters do.

Yeah, but it's a lot like the methane works in Bartertown. If it stops, you may not see it right away, but soon enough you'll start to smell it.

There aren't, at least for most of the time I have nothing to do in GG and SG. Maybe one spam post for a month. Jaesun just pulled the shittier end of the stick this time.

Yeah we haven't had a large attack in a while, but I just picked a section from the last time we had a spam attack.

A new poster that's run straight to GD? Don't think I'm not watching you.

Like a hawk.

A hawk with eyes.

Laser eyes.

Laser eyes with really good vision.​
This is what I got when I first started posting. I though the paranoia was a bit iffy to be honest.
I was curious as to what was behind the paranoia, and hence my inquires into the mod queue.

Confirmed that Diablo 3 gold farmers are smarter than Biodrones.

So we treat every new member as though they were an adbot, to protect the place from the rare adbot attack?

Well, it's only 5 posts and they usually get approved almost instantly anyway. When I joined last year I think I waited less than hour before I could start shitposting freely.

Fuck you Cassidy, I wanted to say that.

Truthfully though, I am somewhat impressed by how much butthurt gaudaost causes wherever he appears. His trolling is so perfectly banal and forgettable, that it appears to push the right buttons for a whole bunch of people. He's like the Edward Norton to skyway's Brad Pitt.

He is pretty good. Sometimes you can even forget he's trolling, but then suddenly his contrarian nature shines through again and the lights flick back on.

I've placed him on ignore for the moment, but the ignore function only really works if nobody else engages the troll either.
