Not permitted to express opinion ?

All I said was the year anniversary pack is crap because if you’ve unlocked every thing the pack contains nothing for you.

I don’t understand why just having an uncommon opinion to most. Is reason enough to get some thing locked. What did I say that was so offensive?

The moderation on here is a joke. I’ve had bug report threads locked for stupid reasons, threads get locked because not every one agrees, threads get locked because of what other people in the thread broke the rules.

like how is this offensive I once got this message hidden for being politically offensive for saying “they should rename mythics to trump cards” as a play on words joke in a thread flaming Trump but flamed comments were not edited nor was the topic locked.

How did you get to ODST Bronze without knowing why your threads might get locked, or the fact that you are not supposed post about moderation decisions? When you have a question why something is locked, link the thread and PM a moderator. Done, easy.

Cuz there’s other threads talking about it? And they were up before yours? If I were a mod I wouldn’t have time for people’s B.S. On continuously making new threads on a specific topic.

You’re already going to get this one locked as you’re choosing to not message a mod on the issue, instead you’ve already said the moderation is a “joke” which I would not appreciate if I “were” one. I’d love to see how you’d handle it.

goid thing I’m not a mod cuz I wouldn’t be as cool headed as they are.

Your thread wasn’t really factual either. It does contain 5 boosts or REQ items which some people will like and there’s already a bunch of threads made where you could express your opinion.

I’ve done that before and never got a reply about it instead I got a few comments moderated half of which were in no way offence and I never got a reply on why half of the edited post were offensive.

Technically those are different topics cause they are all about the the hype train for halo 5 birthday. Plus there is a ton of them so that reason shouldn’t be valid if that is the reason there shouldn’t be a ton of them.

Well every moderation question I’ve asked has been answered. It may have taken a few days, but they got back to me eventually. As long as you’re not overtly negative generally they’ll leave your stuff alone. Plus, they have every right to help the thread stay consolidated. I appreciate their effort in that area. Whether you think it was a similar topic or not.

LOCK THIS Yoinking! THREAD ALREADY

I could say the opposite how did you reach it with out seeing how bad moderation is and can be.

I’m still waiting for why my post “renaming mythics to trump cards” is offensive

It’s been 3-4 months

I guess I’ll just stop expressing my opinion and just agree with what ever the mass agrees with if that would make every one happy.

Just a heads up - posting about moderation decisions is also against the rules.

If you can’t see why then there’s no explaining or helping you.

You’re allowed to express your opinion(s). But if there is a major thread already, post your opinion(s) on that thread since there is no need for another thread regarding the same topic.

For example, there is no need for either Sprint or Playable Elite threads anymore, since there are already major threads regarding those topics.

It’s just a play on words of mythics and trump decks where is the offence.

Exept thread not about those topics will get locked if they mention those topics in conjunction.

I can’t speak to this specific situation, but to OP’s point, early on during my forum days I had a few forums locked for seemingly bizarre reasons… one in particular was me speculating about Halo 5’s story and where they were going to go with it… complete guesswork… but it was locked for possible “spoiler content” even though none of those predictions were actually true when the game was released. Oh well though - you just have to learn to work within the forum rules, even if they sometimes seem strange.

In what way is this offensive?

It’s not offensive, but on the forums we are not allowed to discuss politics, and as the red text says, your thread is considered as “non-constructive”, meaning that the thread wasn’t going to move forward in a good direction. The monitor locked your thread because it did not go towards news, gameplay, bugs, etc.
