Will the mods please do something about the harrasment posters must now endure at the hands of the 4E avengers? They routinely cross the line, and single out posters for their "venom". Please tell them this kind of behavior is unacceptable.

It might help if you point out where this is happening and report it when you see it.

I have been actively reporting the 4E avengers at every opportunity.

Why would the company who made 4.0 want to ban the people who support them by eliminating the opposition?

Customer Service(CS) has a set of standards to judge whether something is harassment or not. They look at what gets reported, and make the call. Harassment and whatnot are subjective, and what may be offensive to you may be tolerable to others, and within the CoC.

Because they are violating the CoC that everyone is supposed to follow. I realize that they never get banned or warned, but I wanted to bring it to everyone's attention. The 4E avengers are well known on RPGnet and ENworld, and so is Wizards special treatment of them.

One could also argue that its possible to be too sensitive, and the worth of being able to lighten up. There is also the fact that these are the 4E D&D forums, and coming to said forums and having negative things to say about the game isn't likely to make you many friends. If you expect people to be nice to you as you're being negative about their game, thats a you problem.

Pointless. They will delete this thread if it is a big enough threat to them. Otherwise they'll ignore it and allow you to get flamed. There's really nothing that can be done about it. That won't make me give up, but I'm just telling you the odds.

I have every right to be critical of 4E mechanics without being insulted. Criticizing 4E is not against the CoC. Insulting posters or harrassing them is. Period.

We are two strong right now. But if others are inspired by our defiance of their tyranny, we may see change in the coming months.

Yes, it is against the CoC. However, the mods enforce the CoC at their digressions. If they choose not to enforce it, it doesn't matter if it is or not.

And by the looks of it, more are heeding the call in the General forum.

What is it they, we, I am doing that is against the coc? Who's flaming this thread?

Aside from the fact that this is the... 4th or 5th time a thread like this has came up without anything to back it up, what do you expect to happen if you don't provide proof to your accusations?

Somebody sounds either a little too sensitive, or a little detached too from reality and expects flowers and sunshine for coming into somebody elses house and criticizing their game.

Not at all. I just want to be treated with respect by 4E avengers.
