An annoying repetitive shut down on my post

[Slyke]

So i have a huge problem regarding my post on how i wanted to speculate on the fact that there is a third character in project 2017. The problem is that an admin by the name of Sean has repeatedly taken down my post saying that speculation is off limits, tho i just took a look through your rules and i see no sentence saying this. To top it off sean has not answered back so im really disturbed by his attitude towards this please respond as soon as possible.

Speculation isn't against the rules specifically. However, it has no discussion value whatsoever for a full topic, and could easily just go into the main topic, which is generally against the rules, having been implemented just a little while ago I believe.

On top of that, there's absolutely no need to call out mods for shutting down something breaking the rules, and having explained why it breaks the rules. If you have that big a problem, use the PM system instead of trying to publicly trying to call out people.

Like many other forums, we have subforum-specific rules in addition to our overall Guidelines. If you read the Upcoming Sonic Games Rules, it clearly says (emphasis mine):

Quote

TOPICS

• The main pinned threads for each new game are for general discussion: wishlists, speculation, hopes and dreams, "are you happy/disappointed" and all of that idle chit-chat. Do not make extra topics for these.
• The rest of the forum is for new news, including: articles and screenshots that reveal new information, trailers, cut scenes, trade shows, promotional tie-ins, interviews, concepts, etc.. When making a new thread, indicate the game you're discussing and the main headline in the title (ex. Sonic Mania: Hydrocity Revealed in New Screenshots)

So, honestly, there was nothing unjust about your threads being shut down. I can understand this is frustrating, but next time, be careful to check all the rules.

Also, I feel like it's worth mentioning that Sean was kind enough to direct you to a topic where you COULD post that kind of thing, but you outright ignored them.  You can't complain about a moderator ignoring you (even though I don't think that's what Sean is even doing) and then deliberately ignore them.
