Case in point - the child that made the mge map thread simply insulting others in more than just a few posts. It's not even something mild, the kid realised trashtalking is the fastest way to get the attention he seeks; just ban him off the website or delete his posts.

It sucks opening the forums and seeing this, we are each a human being behind these screens and nobody deserves to be insulted regardless.

a huge issue with preventative measures is that it's not entirely public how effective measures are because if everything is done right, people will assume nothing was done at all. please realize that every single one of the teamfortress.tv staff are volunteers who take time out of their lives to continue curating and creating content for this dead game

posts still get deleted and people still get banned, and complaining to a bunch of volunteers about them not putting in enough work is not only insanely rude, but you are contributing absolutely nothing of value.

bleghfarecposts still get deleted and people still get banned, and complaining to a bunch of volunteers about them not putting in enough work is not only insanely rude, but also ridiculous. but you are contributing absolutely nothing of value.

Just noticed you edited out the "ridiculous" part of your comment 15 minutes later, but that's fine.

As much as you have a point, that particular thread is up there for more than a week, and I've seen an admin active like 6 hours ago as of writing this. If you are going to have a thread called "Rules" stickied up there, it is expected that they are applied. I don't say how to moderate the website, hence why I ask the admins for people like the aforementioned guy to be banned. I see nothing rude, even less so insanely, let alone ridiculous, in asking for a very toxic person to be banned. If you find that it is, then that's entirely on you.

PlegueJust noticed you edited out the "ridiculous" part of your comment 15 minutes later, but that's fine.

an edit mark is added to the message if edited 5 minutes after posting, and as you can see mine doesn't have that. if you'd really like to know, I did my last edit 4 minutes after posting

PlegueI've seen an admin active like 6 hours ago as of writing this.

who? some people do have admin powers but they also have other things to do like production or writing and they don't have all the time to dedicate to moderating the forum. also in case you're wondering, blue name doesn't mean admin.

PlegueI see nothing rude

The title of your post is quite literally "Can admins please actually ban people"

yes yes there is merit to the fact that the cringy thread was up in TF2GD for far too long, but please understand that they're still volunteers, which you just can't seem to get through your head for some reason. especially given how old this game, this site, and this community is, some things just slip through the cracks or just aren't worth their time. the thread wasn't given a "mod seal of approval" or anything, nothing was just done about it, which is a fair criticism, but to what end

it rocks so much to have threads where some autistic turk just goes absolutely berserk for like 8 pages and it doesnt hurt anyone. nothing fun is allowed to happen on this forum anymore and banning people who are inconsequentially annoying will only make it worse.

if this thread lives long enough to be interesting it will be locked

i thought the post was funny. shitposting is an important part of any forum to remind people not to take every online discussion so seriously lol. if someone is spamming i think a ban makes sense but shitty posts are in good fun imo.

Title suggests an entirely different way of communicating things: "can this platform's moderators actually be useful for something" and bleghfarec has a very correct point on that, don't try to ellaborate in further posts without addressing this. And later attempting to ridiculize him by pointing out he corrected his use of words to be less aggresive? Believe me when I say blegh or the staff made a huge effort in not telling you to go fuck yourself.
