Moderation Of Off Topic Not Maintained Across Posts
Quote taken from What Is This Community About?
Apparently it's about not caring when people blatantly cheat in order to move up in rank, get badges etc....
Most players actually do the work in order to do this but just listen to above player because he has all the answers and cheats and nobody cares.....
Honestly though, I hope you find your way around the community and enjoy it.
@maryjane117 I sort of agree with the sentiment of you post. I find it annoying that @System is quick to remove off topic posts from 'official' posts, but doesn't show the same consideration for everyone's posts. Especially when those off topic posts have been flagged.

@Alienscar thank you. As I hope and think you know, I'm not trying to be a jerk or anything but I've noticed these things for a long time. Posts that aren't flagged are quick to be closed or faulted for being in the wrong topic section when flagged posts are up for weeks. I just feel like it's a slap in the face for those, myself included, that truly try so hard to get every badge, move up etc when cheaters are left alone to cheat to the top. Other posts like the contests that are all closed stay, posts from 2019 stay, offensive posts stay, etc.......
Makes one wonder "what's the point then?" Sometimes.....

No worries @maryjane117, and I think you are the least 'jerk' like person on here. I get that you like to speak your mind.

All of this just makes me wonder why they bother with House Rules at all. If someone can achieve a badge for 250 comments just by making one word posts then I can understand why that would upset a lot of people.
Unlike a lot of forums the Moderators of this site aren't 'in your face', so who knows what is going on in the background I guess.
I think the point is carry on what you are doing and you will be fine, whilst the cheaters and their points will suddenly find themselves 'deleted user'
I agree though that this site would be better off if all off topic posts were handled equally.

Of course, I'm not one that tries for every badge or anything but many do and it sucks for them.
But I'm still happy just crushing along and attempting to beat these nightmare levels lol. While I definitely speak my mind, I don't let it keep me from the game or from the community as there are many good things about it also.
I super appreciate your post and all your help/helpful ways. 😊
