“Excessive moderation ruins what could be a good site.”
9/15/23

I have been a member of Whirlpool, a forum for tech users originally associated with internet access and comms for many years. There are a number of forums grouped under "The Pool Room" and "In the news" which are intended for discussion on general interest topics or current news related matters.

The "In the news" forum is badly moderated, inconsistent in moderation and affected by the personal beliefs some of the moderators. It is just appalling. Any attempt at recourse is next to impossible and when you object to moderation via the "Talk with a mod" aka TWAM messaging, you quite often get a vindictive response. It kills discussion. It ruins what could be a good site.
