fables22: Why would it need to focus on something? Or else - what should it focus on? Something other than making this forum a place where one doesn't feel like respect and dignity are long forgotten?

Shadowstalker16: Ie what will it target? Shouldn't it have a more well defined goal? Ie stop the alt account and report and rep abuse or this ''hostility'' problem. If curing the forum is the objective, what the primary diseases are should be found out beforehand, right? Doesn't make sense to fight an invisible enemy.
Who said we'd be fighting an invisible enemy? There's plenty of very, very visible enemies. Alt accounts? Yes. Report and rep? Indeed. Hate speech, racism, xenophobia? Yes, yes, and yes. Why would it have to be one or the other? It needs to be all or nothing (and it's been shown just fine by now that that option does not work), otherwise we'd move nowhere.

So there is a rough idea about what is going to be done? Ie what is going to warrant a ban / warning? A revised set of rules would be great, or will it be sticking to the current ones?
I'm curious if my previous post would be considered "Hate speech, xenophobia or racism"?

Are you searching for this? Or do you really want to discuss about reasons and solutions?

throgh: Are you searching for this? Or do you really want to discuss about reasons and solutions?
Its a simple question. I want to know if facts and research are now considered the above or if we can actual have rational discussions now.

I'm seeing a pattern on this thread. People pointing out actual facts and getting downvoted to hell and others posting nonsense based on nothing more than emotion getting upvoted.

As for a solution... yes... reformation. Until that happens no more refugees. The teachings of Islam are incompatible with western values. Well, the irony is the less a Muslim follows his religion the more westernized he is.

I strongly advise BOTH the so called 'haters' and the 'tolerant' leftist here to READ THE QURAN!

GreasyDogMeat: Muhammad is the perfect role model of Islam. Muhammad was uncertain that he would reach Heaven. Yet the Quran offers a few guarantees of reaching Heaven.

-Immigrating to another country, bringing the message of Allah and dying in the process. "And whosoever leaves his home as an emigrant unto Allah and His Messenger, and death overtakes him, his reward is then surely incumbent upon Allah."
-Jihad in the cause of Allah. "Let those (believers) who sell the life of this world for the Hereafter fight in the Cause of Allah, and whoso fights in the Cause of Allah, and is killed or gets victory, We shall bestow on him a great reward (Surah 4:74)".

Yet you people either wonder why these acts are being committed or call those of us bringing this to your attention hate mongers. THE TERRORISTS ARE THE TRUE BELIEVERS!

Here come the down votes.
You expect Eurotards to actually think?

Right. That's maybe enough. Once again, no valuable contribution to the discussion.

Just adjust the forum rules. Like this.

2. What are the “house rules” / Code of Conduct for posting on the website?

We don’t want GOG.com to be a fun and safe place where you can discuss and review your favorite games, help fellow posters with your knowledge and get help or tips if you're ever stuck in any game. This is not your “safe space”, dude. We believe that common courtesy and respect for others is completely overrated and in no way the basis for communication on this forum. To make things more clear and sort out any doubts, we've created the following set of guidelines. Please note that these apply to forums, comments, user reviews as well as any other content that you can post on GOG.com.

• You know it dude: No one listens to you if you’re polite and treat others just like you want them to treat you. We don’t give a shit if you do, really, just expect the community to slice you up on day one. It’s a man eats man world, no one should feel comfortable at any time, that just weakens you, and therefore any language or content that is harassing, intimidating, threatening, discriminating, obscene, pornographic, sexually explicit or offensive is an absolute must if you want to be heard. Those posts are getting the upvotes, we assure you that. Just be creative!
• Don’t worry about posting stuff that’s been posted before. The old thread on the matter has in all probability already been downvoted out of existence or derailed into a discussion about the inexistence of the wage gap, the inherent evil of the muslim religion or the glory of Putin or Trump.
• Spamming and trolling are the only generally accepted forms of posting. Posting in topics or threads for the sole purpose of flooding and causing unrest on the forums is what keeps this forum afloat. Under no circumstance will we ever do anything against the respective people. Honestly, we know about three dozen trolls with hundreds of alt accounts who are downvoting the shit out of others and are upvoting themselves into oblivion, and we won't lift a finger to change that. I mean, come on, at least you know that one dude who has literally all of his posts low rated because he's being an all around fascist asshole, but he never seems to fall below 500 anyway. How did you think that's going to work without a few alts on the side? You're so naive, man.
• Keep within the law – we don’t want to get sued dude. However, we’re absolutely OK with piracy, it’s not like we’re a game distributor of sorts, you can put down any kind of insult of and slander against our business clients as well (it's a gamergate world after all), and of course what’s illegal in other countries isn’t necessarily illegal in Poland. E.g. holocaust denial is OK, that’s just an opinion some leftist shitheads will have to deal with.

I realize what's happening in the world is extremely emotional and I find it disgusting how blinded they seem to be about what's really going on but you need to use facts and not insults to get your point across. Posts like this just make them close up and not listen to reason. That's bad for everyone.

I'm not saying I agree with what you've been saying, buy I a 100% agree with this. For some people, discussion equals throwing insults and slurs around. Until there's something other than just that, what's the point of pretending we're even having a discussion in the first place?
***NEWS***

Officially, the German chief prosecutor is "unsure" they got the right guy. A police source told Die Welt that actually, the terrorist is still considered on the run and armed.

They will just use the "you need to get educated"
