Is there a lack of moderation on the Ableton Forums?

Yes, I think the moderators should be a bit stricter.

Maybe, but I only read what is of interest to me anyway.

@ OP - It's a joke, man. Get a sense of humor and stop trying to ruin other people's fun. If you don't like it, don't read it. You were offended by the title but opened it anyway so you could get more offended by what's inside? What's your problem? Some people have a warped sense of humor, like me. I also give lots of free advice on this forum. The two are intricately connected.

that is fact of a matter do i have to complain first to have it removed?
Why can't you just let it go? Why do you have to a be a crusader of political correctness? Of course sexual assault is terribly wrong! I don't think anyone in the thread in question would argue that. Why do you have to have things your way and demand that things that offend you be removed? 27 posts and how many of them are bitching about the content of this forum? Why don't you try posting something helpful and participate in this forum in a positive and meaningful way first, and then try to reason with people to get a change in behavior instead of just running to the forum police to solve your problems?

Ok, well that's cool. I'm down with the discussion but I thought you were talking about cracking down on the forum and I happen to love it here. I would be pretty sad if it got all tight around here and I would probably stop coming. Then again, I get annoyed that people get banned from the forum nowadays.

Yea, I understand there is a code of behavior. It's ableton's forum they can do as they like. I'll fight for freedom of immoral speech though!

Sorry to be ragging on you AGA....I'm feeling feisty this morning.

these forums are moderated, at least a bit. I remember times where there was direct porn pictures in some threads.

hateful people get banned.

insulting posts are moderated.

but this forum needs the user to have a pretty solid sense of humor, and self-confidence.
there is a learning curve to this forum, and, as said someone here, I'm about 1000posts, and I'm still often feeling attacked or pissed off. But this is the price to pay.

BTW,

there is an interesting section, named "TIPS & TRICKS"... there are NO potentially insulting or chocking thread in there. only 100% ableton live tips and tricks.

when I started to use this forum, I quite never read the general section, because I was searching for tips and trics, advices, tutorials...


so do the same. You can just think "general section is only a huge pile of crappy garbage, I'll never get back in".

and you're OK. :D

i told you plainly that being sorry for maybe ofending me was not the issue but rather the message itself needed addressing
it was the apology of someon sorry for being caught not for the crime itself
do td and bounce tell unrepentint stories of there friends sexually assaulting others?
