Anyone here using forums of bigger media sites (rant/question)

Are they usually moderated post by post, I mean in a way that new posts get checked by mods before they get unlocked to actually appear in the forum, which leads to a delay of ca. 20-30mins? How can you have a real debate then /rhetorical

I just made the mistake (I guess) to start posting at such a forum, and I already hate it (didn't know before they have this procedure). If it stays like this I'll not post there anymore because this site has no freedom

FREEDOM!!!!!!!!!!!

Most are like that I think.

I only know because you see commentators complaining they've been censored by big evil media company when in fact they just hadn't been approved yet, and often the complaining post and the original post get approved and appear at the same time. Then, sometimes when they realize they post an additional post apologizing for the complaining. I've seen this frequently.

While that seems like a big clusterf*ck it's def NOT the biggest reason that there can be no constructive debate at those places: that's because everybody there's an idiot. Who else would put up with that sh*t (and all the other idiots)? It's a vicious circle of idiocy.

If ever I want to despair at humanity I read some Youtube comments.
