I was wondering if there was a particular way to clean up these forum posts. I believe this is mainly handled by the karma system but unfortunately anonymous users really aren't governed by it so their posts stick around as well as other issues. The particular forum that simply stands out as worse is, of course, FF XI's job summoner board where it has many many particular discussions that have -nothing- to do with FF XI/summoner or are discriminatory/derogatory in some fashion on all accounts. I'm not taking sides in that soap opera but I was hoping that maybe that all of those threads could be locked down or purged as they serve no real purpose which is to talk about summoners in FF XI.
Honestly, I would ignore them myself but they are becoming more and more numerous..
I'm not sure of anyone's take or thoughts on these matters as I'm still rather new to the site (started with FF XI.) I'm also apologizing in advance if I posted in the wrong place or if this came out to be a rather complaining post but I do think it'd promote a more healthy atmosphere if some "law" was set down and all sides made to quiet down and play nice again and talk about FF XI like they are supposed to. What attracted me initally was the ability to talk about my experiences in a carefree fashion.

sidenote: I'm glad I'm mostly a paladin right now (much more friendlier atmosphere on that side of the pond) but I do like to see what the other jobs are talking about.
