In the Kaufberatungsforum there are a few things that are “slowly” annoying: 1. When tips are repeated, block waiters come around the corner and spam the thread with criticism:http://www.motor-talk.de/…/…-or-doch-vw-golf-7-t5890736.html?… You would have to explain to them that the Kaufberatungsforum is NOT designed in such a way that each threader performs a search before creating a thread, whether his wishes have been discussed before. But everyone creates his own thread, because s owieso everyone has a very own driving profile and own requirements, you can not generalize that. One wants a diesel because of 30,000 kilometers per year, the next one a petrol with > x hp, the next one a hybrid because of the reliability; the budget is different etc… So if someone repeats tips, this is just as normal as a newly created thread, which is very similar to an existing thread. You can criticize tips just as repeatedly in terms of content, but if you do 2. The dogma “it must not be suggested any other models than the ones mentioned by the thread maker, if he has committed himself to it” (in my opinion senseless) is already contained in the purchase advice fora rules in the sticky thread. It can’t hurt to take the blindfolds away from a thread maker. He can still say no. Can this be changed please? The Blockwart behavior There is also this (see also the linked thread) and this is also spam. 3. If a moderator (without red names, i.e. as a normal user, but for everyone who is able to read, is clearly recognizable as e.g. the moderator of the forum just called, because its user name is now like this…) as a normal discussion participant, he should be allowed to use a different account (as an exception to the terms of use). I ran behind like a sheep herd in my opinion and if it then, for example, lowers the opinion of a user, it does not work at all (the latter I do not know from any other serious forum). A moderator should remain neutral and only intervene moderatingly if the terms of use have been violated.
