Trashtalk disallowed?

Since we got the new mods we had like an invisible ghost guarding all threads on Sanctuary forum aka OPKossy. Sanctuary has since I made my character been the server with the most trashtalk but from what I know it is not a rule that's breaking the ToS.

Going into the forum this afternoon I see a forum thread that will probably go towards a drama thread (JUST LIKE ANY OTHER THREAD THATS BEEN ON SANCTUARY FORUM FOR 4 YEARS). So what was the problem?

If Sanctuary wants drama and trashtalk in their forum section. What is the problem with that if it's leading to a possible discussion?

e.g. (To Kossy). If I start a new thread with http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqOZ7RDBkb0 as the main title of the thread. Will you close it too?

    Trashtalk is not allowed in any part of the forum.
    I see some servers section with more trashtalk then other, but I guess it's cause mods don't really check the servers they are not from. check HL it's clean of mods cause there's no mod on HL. (Lucky us I guess)

    W/e the rule says it is just stupid to close a thread that hasn't caused Any flame. It's just too many locked thread recently. If people don't like what they read they should just move on and don't give a *** in the discussion - which Xianou (or w/e that venos name is) is good at; Enter all threads and state senseless comments.
    Kossy could go close every single thread here on Sanctuary if Sanctuary-trashtalk is disallowed. Oh no, he choose to stick one of them instead because of the insane amount of posts. Read through the thread then make a decision ijs.
    pathetic...

    Sanctuary is by far the most ridiculous server I've come by when it comes to PK. Not even surprised that the mods keep an eye on this section.

    Oh look, I got a hater. b:chuckle

    Mods won't wait a thread to flame to close it, if they see a thread have potential to be flame they will close it.

    They try to prevent the flame beside wait it to appear to try to stop it.

    Are you actually qq'ing because mods pervent trash talking?

    Even tho I see your point lets observe the closed thread

    1. Person post from an alt to praise hismself
    2. Openly hostile video v another player that does not even post on forums
    3. Stupid pointless vid that does not even prove anything
    4. See 1.

    As a neutral reader, such worthless threads should not exist to start with.

    and the lack of good discussion here is probably WHY we get so many spam troll threads. the only things left to talk about are TW fights and pk, and neither subject tends to get the "objective approach" from posters anyways.

    i would actually LOVE to see more actual pk discussion and breakdowns of notable fights than "hahaha 1-shot, no skill, u suck haaha". but maybe thats too much to ask.

    given that the recent thread closures are mostly by 2 people, i think kossy did a great job. no need to encourage the threads that are purposefully created in order to create a mess.

    yeah but they been for the most part, pretty useless threads started >.>;;

    the only threads that are left opened are the 1 or 2 exceptions, due to the length and history

    Is the thread vindicate unbeatable still open? lol thats what i thought thats why it was posted from a alt because its purpose was to troll from the beginning they might as-well just shut down sanctuary forums lol. The game is dieing and really pvp and tw and nw are the only things that keep it alive really. I don't why people get gear to pve lol its been the same instances and same mobs for 4 years. Everyone knows for every big name mmo to live you have to have endgame pvp and mass pvp(tw,nw). Alot of you dont get it they just waste your money to log onto skype and sit at a afk spot? no wonder why ene and lg cant win a double atk on vindi. They really don't have a clue how to play the game cause there in skype instead of pvping vindi at west to try and get better. I just came back to this game and i see this lol sad really. I grow tired of the dishonesty on this server people honesty just defend there factions and friends even if you know there wrong or are lieing how about you do whats right and admit the truth lol.

    What everyone else said.

    There's a limit that this section crosses fairly often to the point where it's fairly ridiculous. Regular discussion and light trash talk is totally fine. The stuff Sanctuary tends to devolve into more often than not? Yeah, no.

    And this thread itself shouldn't exist either considering the rule of thumb is that if you have a problem take it up with one of the mods. So yes this is getting closed regardless.
