Marsh Posted August 10, 2009 Author Share Posted August 10, 2009 I am here to announce that there is going to be a slight change in the way that warnings are handed out. You will no longer lose 5% of your warning a day. This is due to the fact that many members have tons of warnings in the past but are never muted. Now if you dont actually want to be here you will quickly get muted and forgotten about. It has gotten a little lax lately. The main problem is that when there is little to no moderation people tend to complain that things are getting out of hand. Though when we actually start punishing people for breaking rules they start complaining and leaving. We are trying to create the proper median on the forums. Ii would rather get back to the community that i knew and loved with proper posts and annoy a few people that let it continue down the road that it is going now. Anyone who doesn't agree with the tighter moderation can always go back to 4chan.Also the Chit Chat board is for chatting about random topics. But please try to stay on the topic of the post. If you want to talk about boobs go ahead, but make a new topic about it. If you just want to chat go ahead. But make a topic to chat in. If someone tries to make a post with a specific idea or topic in chit chat the discussion should actually go that way. If it is starting to go off topic feel free to just create a new thread. I will be splitting threads that i find derailing. Also stop with the fail this isnt 4chan. Hopefully this will make the community more friendly and usable for everyone.Also a spam bot mod has been installed so hopefully no more spam bots will be plaguing the forums with necro's and advertising.[Edit]You will lose 1% a day now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godlord Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Dear Marsh,I agree with your measurements and came to conclusion that these should have been take some time ago. Yesterday I've decided to take my attitude back down to what it was and I will try to answer threads more properly, as might have been noticed already. I'm sorry for any trolling, de-railing, etc. caused by myself on these forums and it will as for now, not happen any longer in the future, although neither in the present. The only boards where I actually will still post like this are probably the boards referred to as 186 and perhaps Chit Chat, if with reason or in my own topics.Kind regards, Godlord.

Drummerpete Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I would like to apologize for de-railing and spamming too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xeross Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Ye Marsh, I totally agree, It was fun often (Atleast for some of us) but if we continued down this path we would've probably ended up somewhere between 4chan and 31chan.And now for the end of this era.![](http://files.x3tech.com/v/96/user2553_pic1953_1235675713.jpg)![](http://files.x3tech.com/v/97/end_of_an_era.jpg)Regards, Xeross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jna Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 I agree with this, It will cut down the spamming, I think there should be, if possible so that you can like give an apology when over 60% warn(mute). It can be seen by admins and chosen to be accepted or not. It should be accepted or not depending on time it has passed, severity of things happened, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khachaturian Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Sounds like a plan,I also think we should do penalties, like if you're muted, you have to upload a video of yourself singing boom boom pow to get unmuted.Just my two cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceCream Tuesday Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Possibly assign new mods or.. try and get the admins back.. because only a few stop by occasionally.@Bone:> Sounds like a plan,> > I also think we should do penalties, like if you're muted, you have to upload a video of yourself singing boom boom pow to get unmuted.> > Just my two cents.For this 100% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hippoman789 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 I vote ICT as new admin.But theres another time for that.On topic:Boom boom pow would be a stupid Idea. You get unmuted once the mods feel you've matured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceCream Tuesday Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 It would give them a second chance.. if they do it again.. perma mute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khachaturian Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 I do too, but its not up to the general population (Or is it? Or maybe just a bit)As for the Boom Boom Pow, I think after the mods think they've matured enough, then you have to do that to get back in. Cept that would make you look immature. Possibly.@IceCream:> For this 100%Petition time XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owen F Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 @DrNova:> Offtopic I know, by why did you steal goddies signatureFirst of all i lol'd at this because this topic is about NOT going OFF TOPIC and your entire post makes no contribution to the topic.Second of all i would also like to apologize for any flaming derailing etc i have caused. Mostly it is because my foot gets stuck on the bar when i try to leave the train (Metaphorically)Third of all. I think we should get some more moderators as there are only a few dominant ones.Such as:Admiral RefugeAnna ComnenaYou (Marsh)Renzo (He's got moderator status, right?)A few people i have almost definitely missed.

StingRay200 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 It should be that you lose 10% of your warning if you have been behaving yourself every 5 days.Although, that would issue alot more mutes… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jna Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 There should also be bans for multiple accounts because is you are muted for sometime and it does not go away it would make people make another account to post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azkanan Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Thank god. I first noticed the spammers/flamers with huge warn histories a little while ago and wondered why they hadn't been banned at least once for it all :/. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homicidal Monkey Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 I've suggested doing "1-Day bans" instead of muting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owen F Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 I would happily be a moderator :PBut, i think there are people who deserve it far more than me. :azn: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
