@Mrtea reminded me of a classic tactic used on Perb to shut down discussions
A common tactic employed by certain members or providers on Perb is to enter a thread featuring a negative review of a topic they dislike. They often resort to trolling, name-calling, or creating drama to derail the conversation. Subsequently, since the Perb moderators are easily manipulated, this behavior leads to the thread being locked, edited, or removed entirely by the mods.
This is a valuable lesson on why freedom of speech and minimal moderation are important, as such simple tactics should not be able to make threads and discussions vanish.
This also highlights why it's important not to select moderators who exhibit obvious mental health issues and are easily manipulated, like the moderators from Perb.
