Why the fuck does IIN reject my goddamn post?

  • Ok...I am only taking the time to respond to this and not be a lazy-ass because I'm assuming it was posted by poetry and hamlet living buddy, and not some grotty sister fucker or teacher lover (if so, disregard).

    The moderation system here is...questionable, at best.

    Basically, reporting posts has been left up to users, essentially making the site self-moderated. Unless your post contains key words, like "murder," "suicide," "pedophilia," etc etc, which trip an auto filter, they will only be moderated if reported by another user.

    Now, you could be reported by a specific user that's basically trolling for no reason...that happens, but assuming your post follows all the rules, it should be approved.

    I won't run through all the rules; you can look those up, but honestly, the most common reason I see for a legitimate, fantastic question being removed is the fact that it isn't phrased correctly.

    It basically has to be an IIN question, and there are ways to make any question appear to be an IIN question.

    For example, instead of saying, "I want to hear a snippet of your favorite poem," you say something along the lines of "IIN that I can't get enough of poetry. I'm practically addicted. IIN that I really want to hear your favorite poem while I naughty touch. Is it normal??? Is it!?!?" Automatic approval.

    There's a lot of trash that gets through and doesn't get reported. There's alot of great questions that get reported and removed due to a technicality. You have to learn to work within the rules.

    I've posted questions that are not IIN questions and quite literally said that "anyone who reports this is a cunt!" That worked too.

    Anywho, best of luck.

    • I've seen pedo posts go through (even in the old days when EVERYTHING went through moderation...) yet my post questioning this was auto-modded and rejected.

      Guess the mods like pedos.

      • Haha. Sometimes the moderation makes so little sense that I wonder if there actually ARE mods, or if it's just some crazy algorithm.

        • I vote a bunch of retarded monkeys throwing their poo at two signs that read "Accept" and "Reject".

    • This is true, but I have an additional theory.
      The trolls who go around reporting innocent posts for no reason may be doing more damage than people think. This is because one report will instantly send the post to moderation.
      This should work fine when the moderators see the post followed the rules and reapprove it.
      There is a problem though. The moderators here have obviously proved to not give a fuck.
      I would not be suprised if they do not even read the posts in the moderation box and send them all straight to the recycle bin.
      This could be fixed if they cared enough to look out for who is abusing the self moderating privileges, or even reading the posts, but that may be asking too much.
