    Hello,

    I would like to know where to find the forum rules, if there any. Just can't find them.
    Plus, I'd like to know if the forums are even moderated by anyone.
    There are trolls here posting offensive and even racist stuff, yet nobody seems to take care of them.
    Also, some members obviously are free to offend and attack others without any consequences as if this was a playground for kids and bullies.

    Generally, when it comes to trolls if you don't respond they get bored.

    If they post things you don't want to see, use the Ignore feature. To use ignore, you click on the user's name, then in the little box that pops up, click Ignore. What this means in this new forum software though is that anything they post, and anything anyone posts in response to that post are ignored (in other words they don't appear at all), so that's why I don't really use it.

    You can try to report the post, but I don't think that actually makes any difference.

    I've found it's best just to scroll past them. Maybe occasionally tear their argument to bits and point out that they are a stupid, racist asshole and then move on with enjoying the forum and the people who aren't like that.

    Thanks for your reply.
    When ignoring members it can still be seen when you're not logged in.
    I think it should be possible to discuss issues without offensive responses, so it would be a good idea if the admins and mods posted some forum rules and took care of bullies and trolls.
    Much too negative posts and childish fights as well as trolls chase users away and make reasonable conversations almost impossible.
    I'm always glad when reading posts of members who discuss things in a sober way, whether or not they share my point of view.

    If you spot a troll post/thread or racist comments just report them by clicking on the report button underneath their comment.

    I've done that several times, yet nothing happened.
