It sucks, and if there are qualms, they can be done sufficiently through our private messaging system.

Yes, please, we don't need idiots and blatant racism or anything like that reigning supreme without any prejudice.

Not to mention there's been illegal activity going on in there recently... I wouldn't want stuff like that infesting ANY part of the Skial forums.. yo.

I think I've flip flopped on this numerous times, but I still like the idea of it as long as it stays hidden to non-logged in users. Remember the original reason it was made was because there so much crap going on in threads and we decided to try and funnel it into one section. I agree that there have been times it's "leaked out", but I contend that it would have happened anyways. Ideally in a professional setting you know how to limit your audience and it would have gone in the private messages, but obviously that didn't happen before. People don't just magically stop becoming assholes on the internet. Even though this a gaming community, I don't think we've ever been THAT strict topic wise and as long as the funnel is built in such a way that you need to go into the section manually to see anything, I don't see an issue with it.

I would rather have trolls trolling where I don't care rather than in public facing threads. Even though we delete messages, they still are visible for some period of time and might turn people off.

Whatever. I'd be fine if unmod was forced to follow our general rules (racism, illegal stuff, personal info) and just used to 'shit post' or reply to things outside of unmod that were locked/removed.

Most of the threads in unmod are just people being stupid and posting silly things that they can't necessarily post in General. There really is no drama, leave unmod alone, it's the one place people can post and not get judged.

Skial doesn't need racist and hate-speech fueled drama. It is a TF2 community. We're here for games.
Some cunt just trash talk you passively outside of unmod? Have to give those ass bandits what for?
Here you are!

Simply copy-paste a "reply" from the original thread, so they will get an Alert for it. State your peace (or war) and go for it.
Have fun!

To me, unmod feels like the lovechild of Topix and Tumblr. A little watered down, but still just as trashy.

My big problem with unmod isn't the drama. I don't care about drama, it's going to exist with unmod or without. My problem with unmod is that people in our community who SHOULD care about the rules, general decency and public image (in example: admins and moderators) get a "safe place" to blatantly be racist, sexist and they get to circumvent almost all of the rules.

I judge most people who post in unmod.
