I received a mod warring.
But seems like you missed the conversation.
I did not called him a liar... it was the opposite but he trying to sold old FAQ line that was not in place at Metacritic for a decade to prove what I said was wrong is indeed a LIE.
1) I pointed out that Metacritic doesn't added scores to reviews and that reviews where the owner didn't submit the score become unscored.
THAT IS A FACT!
2) Somebody quoted a FAQ in the Metacritic that said they choose the score for uncored reviews.
I explained that FAQ was very old and Metacritic indeed used to do that years (perhaps a decade) ago and that for a long time that is not accurate anymore and unscored reviews are listed as unscored.
ANOTHER FACT!
3) So the another guy made a big post quoting 5 of my post talking about the 2 points 1 and 2 and called I didn't know that and that I that the (old) FAQ debunked me... plus he posed a pic from the old FAQ line with the last update of the article.
the support article was updated just 5 months ago 🤷🏼♂️ also Metacritic has really weird score translations for when IndieWire did score games, for example Metroid Dread got a B which somehow translates to a 75? Returnal’s A is a 100, Demon’s Souls Remake’s A- is a 91, and Persona 5 Striker’s...

4) I did reply saying the FAQ line he quoted was old and explained again what I already explained in (2). I gone even deep and give example of what happens with unscored reviews in Metacritic that goes direct against what the old FAQ line says.

5) He started to say the documentation (FAQ) was new (totally false) and keep repeating it with dumb "You're welcome."

6) So I helped him to be shamed even more showing it that the FAQ line is from 2010 with irrefutable evidences and ended the text with the same way he talked with me "You're welcome.".

7) His last post was a hilarious try to say he never said the text was not old but the article was... that is so dumb because he was using the same article as proof that Metacritic give scores to unscored reviews when it doesn't.
He only replied to me because he believed the FAQ was the ultimate evidence he was right and even said he reported to moderation (something childish like most Xbot GAFs used to do)
So I exposed him showing that the FAQ line he was so prideful to use use was from 2010.
And he tried to move the goal... but not me... I can see from these shameless tricks and called him out.
Satoru was Dodrake until last month here on Icon. He was Dod on GAF so I thought you guys had a long history 🫠 Ohhhhhh… Its now clicked. We had serious discussions (diverged a lot) here and Discord… some issues Bryan even had to intervene. I don’t remember if that happened in GAF.

8) So he asked to be shamed after I give him a lot of chance... he insisted in being wrong trying to twist the reality in something else.
I give what he wanted.
_ Metacritic score system is a very elitist. They favor the more powerful and known websites over the smaller ones. While opencritic gives all websites an even voice. Opencritic has "Top critic" non "Top critic" gradation and the latter doesn't count into the aggregate.

Conclusion.
I'm public telling you what happened to you think a bit if the warring is really correct.
I don't care about it and you don't need to remove it.
But I want to show to you and
@Bryank75 what happened to see if the moderation is doing it right.
It was the same behavior GAF mods used that you guys hated
Maybe it improves a bit... maybe not.
