A game idea...

I have to start this by saying I love Moderators, and really appreciate what they do.  These sites would get ugly fast if there weren't these diligent souls to keep hate and chaos off the boards.  What follows is merely a satirical idea poking fun at censorship (which I understand is necessary to a degree to make these sites friendly); it is in no way meant to troll, offend, or slight any of our Mods for doing their good work......

I just have a sometimes sarcastic sense of humor.

Without further ado, my game idea....

Im not sure what it should be called, but the villain would be a shadowy, behind-the scenes figure known as simply, "The Moderator". This Wizard of Oz type manipulates the whole of the world to better match his (or her) vision for a perfect future, as dictated by the ancient prophecy of the "Terms of Use". The gameplay would revolve around restoring chaos in an increasingly linear, politically correct universe, striving to bring life back to the individuals of the land who, in an almost zombielike state follow the code of the Moderator (whom theyve never seen in person, but whom all fear). It would start out very linear, then progress to a more open game format, with players free to customize their character to match their own personality quirks, and it would have an RPG-like system for levelling up skills like practical joking, foul language, and general establishment upheaval. Previously restored areas could be revisited to see just what zany nonsense the population have gotten into since you left....

There was a thread going recently about non-violent games, and I dont think this game would have to be violent, per se. The goal could be a reawakening of the sleeping populace through mischeif making. Of course, this would have to be an adults-only game, as every aspect would be sure to offend someone. However, care would have to be taken to make it equally offensive to everyone, following the credo of Trey Parker and Matt Stone.

The game could take all sorts of surreal twists and turns as the world's mischeif is restored, told through the hilarious stories of those who have been sleeping but are reawakened.

Chameo appearances in the game could include Marilyn Manson, Lenny Bruce, Paul Mooney and Ron Jeremy, among others both real and fictional....

In the end of course, The Moderator would end up being just a normal Joe behind a desk. Seeing the error of his/her ways, and remembering the mischeif tucked away in his own guarded heart, the Moderator calls for the whole society to put on the most un-pc offensive show ever seen!!

The game could end with a gut-busting movie breaking down cultural and societal stereotypes, taboos, and stigmas, with a message that individual expression should not be guided by anyone else's Terms of Use.....

What do you think
