Comment on Roblox CEO tells parents that “if you're not comfortable, don't let your kids be on Roblox”.
ThisGuyGetsIt@feddit.uk 1 day agoI miss the wild West cluster fuck internet. Things were calmer when everyone was arguing with eachother. People came away from debates with the same opinion but at least learned a thing or two along the way. The sad thing about moderation and censorship is that there’s unintended consequences when we apply half measures. I my opinion moderation is an all or nothing deal. I’m on the don’t moderate anything and let people have shouting matches end of the spectrum.
When there’s minor moderation people self censor and it’s hard to gauge someone’s true opinion, which in my is more harmful than full censorship where you tow the party line; because everyone knows the party line and can figure out what is actually being said.

It is entirely possible to moderate too much, to quash the voice of your community in your rabid attempt to keep the community free of trolls and such. As with most things in life, there is a balance to be struck in the trade-off between the wild west and the gulag.
