Title: A Journey into the Unkown - METOKUR
Post by: Natef on April 28, 2011, 07:38:25 PM: I joined the forum with NO rules.

So, for my first post was basically: "Hey, I'm new here. I want to troll better, and I like FFF."
An admin changed it into a paragraph with large text saying how I like to party, with a song playing that said "I wanna suck your d*ck"

And that's just posting day 1!

Clearly rules exist if an admin modded your post. They are simply not listed.

Post long, fallacy-ridden posts about how anarchy, chaos and general lawlessness is crap. Pretend to be an annoying, sanctimonious, holier-than-thou Lawful Neutral principles zealot, and troll the forum to death. Of course, never break your facade and never regret anything, as well as do not leave any ammo for the others to troll you back.

Not necessarily... if they mod all new user posts, yes, but if not, it is merely a mod's enjoyment.

It only means the rules fluctuates among the admins. It doesn't make a participant free.

All forum rules devise from the enjoyment of the mods/admins, under their own concept of what is best. At any time a mod/admin does not enjoy their job, which I am sure there are plenty, they are still choosing the least of two evils and minimizing harm.

If a mods/admins modify a post whenever they like, then the only people with no rules are the mods/admins. Clearly a regular participant does not have the power to "post as they like for others to see".

It is the same hierarchical system nonetheless, except more oppressive.
