Couldn't agree more. The banter is practically non existant, as rules are far too tight nowadays. I used to love the massive bitch fests and handbags at dawn.

Basically you're all complaining that nobody fights anymore?

Go start a fight then! (In a constructive manner).

i cant see how any of you can say the moderation is so tight?

This is one of the most relaxed websites i frequent...If anythings the problem its everyones belief that they are of a higher intelect than the next fella so nion every post gets turned in to politics

But meh

More people need to learn that the wastelands isnt just a tat part of this website but actually a part of the website that most people visit most frequently..
Also theres silly attitude that goes about "if you visit the wasteland your a waster..When in actual fact i find it the best part of the entire website...Does this make me such a bad person?

My tuppence worth

I reckon people could be abusing this system - reporting threads when it's not necessary in an attempt to get the thread poster banned.

Exactly, you peope can't have it both ways. Either everyone has to be civilised (i.e moderated) or 99% of the threads descend into people calling everyone else's band shite.

Over the past few weeks I've seen quite a few threads on "serious" topics, usually it's a dead giveaway to a thread that when it's over three pages long, it will be talking about something that has really got someone fired up.

At the end of the day if you don't like the website, you can just fuck off... :p (in a very nice way of course!)
