[09:03:04] <@X-Ray_Dog> [02:29:53] What logic??

[09:03:04] [15:19:22] http://forum.cubers.net/modcp.php?action=banning + http://forum.cubers.net/search.php?action=results&sid=6b59a723e9e27d02ed0d6ed0ff8827b5 [09:03:04] [15:22:23] The main question I have is the “insta” banning and the fact that there was no reason to ban him over a quote [09:03:04] [15:22:42] If you find that quote embarassing then maybe stef shouldn’t of let it happen [09:03:04] [15:23:04] But honestly this instant banning shit is why Marti and others give you greif [09:03:04] [15:23:18] If you would relax and give it up, they would have nothing to bug you about [09:03:04] [15:24:47] I am relaxed :) [09:03:05] [15:25:25] Then why the instant ban? [09:03:05] [15:27:11] Anyways, I’m going to unban him. Feel free to give him a +3 warning [09:03:05] [15:27:17] But really it wasn’t that bad [09:03:05] [15:27:48] there is given a reasons + I save the project [09:03:05] [15:28:27] There are given reason for a warning [09:03:05] [15:28:42] Have you seen the posts on the mod forums about how we want moderation to be done [09:03:05] [15:28:55] Outlines warning and banning procedures [09:03:05] [15:29:10] http://forum.cubers.net/thread-10.html [09:03:05] [15:29:18] Read the “Insta-ban offences” section [09:03:05] [15:29:24] These rules have worked out well in the past [09:03:05] [15:30:52] Marti provokes and provokes, so there shouldn't be surprise, that he is banned again [09:03:05] [15:31:33] Just going to be honest, he provokes because a ton of people don’t apperciate you or stef [09:03:05] [15:31:51] You and stef start devving and then start cracking down half of the active users [09:03:05] [15:32:14] This sort of moderation has never been the precedent so ofc people are going to retaliate [09:03:05] [15:32:26] This retaliation comes in the only form they can do, “provoking” you [09:03:05] [15:32:50] Honest to god, the only reason why the other admins haven’t removed your powers is that we understand what good you do to the game [09:03:05] [15:33:15] But in truth half of the game is in the development, the other half is in the community [09:03:05] [15:33:20] what I did wrong? [09:03:05] [15:33:30] Both you and stef crack down way too fast [09:03:05] [15:33:36] With these sorts of instant banning. [09:03:05] [15:33:38] what I did wrong? [09:03:05] [15:34:15] You have been way too quick with banning people [09:03:05] [15:34:28] who? [09:03:05] [15:34:44] people don't remember bans by RK or Brahma? [09:03:05] [15:34:57] And then makke would come on and yell at them for it [09:03:05] [15:35:12] and I would wait awhile and silently remove them myself [09:03:05] [15:35:17] who is banned to quick? [09:03:05] [15:35:18] But nothing of this scale [09:03:05] [15:35:22] Marti [09:03:05] [15:35:27] He posted a quote and instant ban [09:03:05] [15:35:33] There is a warning system in place [09:03:05] [15:35:53] no, reposted deleted, in order to offend the dev [09:03:05] [15:35:58] deleted post [09:03:05] [15:36:24] The dev shouldn’t be offeneded by something he did in IRC [09:03:05] [15:36:40] Anyways, the procedure is this: [09:03:05] [15:36:47] Warn when they post, delete the post [09:03:05] [15:36:55] If they repost, make harsher warning [09:03:05] [15:37:06] By then they might be up to 60% which prevents them from doing it again [09:03:05] [15:37:33] Not instant banning [09:03:05] [15:38:11] http://forum.cubers.net/thread-8138-post-161936.html#pid161936 [09:03:05] [15:38:37] Paul went through the warning gambet many times [09:03:05] [15:38:55] iirc banned from the forums for a period of months several times [09:03:05] [15:39:01] and he did things much worse than marti [09:03:05] [15:40:24] there is only about 5 trolls which get habitually warnings, bans etc. [09:03:05] [15:40:30] Anyways, looking at what RK does isn’t the greatest, because RK is also too fast to ban [09:03:05] [15:44:52] if people working on the project aren't specially protected, when they are habitually offended on project "space", then... [09:03:05] [15:45:51] They are habitually offended because they are bad community moderators [09:03:05] [15:45:55] they are protected [09:03:05] [15:49:38] ok, I thought, that something wrong is with Undead, Marti, Andrez, Boomhauer, but it looks, that I mistook [09:03:05] [15:49:57] http://forum.cubers.net/modcp.php?action=warninglogs&filter%5Busername%5D=&filter%5Bmod_username%5D=grenadier&filter%5Breason%5D=&filter%5Bsortby%5D=dateline&filter%5Border%5D=desc&filter%5Bper_page%5D=20 [09:03:05] [15:53:45] Haven’t looked at what they have said recently [09:03:05] [15:53:52] But honestly, I don’t see many warnings of marti [09:03:05] [15:53:58] So perhaps you should warn him more often [09:03:05] [15:59:30] Now you are personally responsible for Marti and others [09:03:05] [15:59:47] No? [09:03:05] [15:59:50] and negative effects for the project [09:03:05] [16:00:18] XRD? :) [09:03:05] [16:00:33] Honestly, do you not see most AC’ers hating you and stef right now? [09:03:05] [16:00:54] no :D [09:03:05] [16:01:07] btw why me? :D [09:03:05] [16:01:17] Because you are lumped in with stef [09:03:05] [16:01:22] (they also hate lucas, but thats a given) [09:03:05] [16:01:41] and jamz [09:03:05] [16:02:02] No, most people liked jamz [09:03:05] [16:02:04] there is only a few provocators, I don't care them [09:03:05] [16:03:11] There could be even less if you and stef moderated a lost lighter [09:03:05] [16:03:26] why me? :D [09:03:05] [16:03:43] Because you moderate heavy handed sometimes as well [09:03:05] [16:04:48] usually when situation needs it [09:03:05] [16:05:27] Yeah, maybe [09:03:05] [16:05:43] I am not good in English arguments [09:03:05] [16:05:45] In general I’ve just seen a load of deleted posts, not sure who does it, but that is unprecedented [09:03:05] [16:05:48] as in English [09:03:05] [16:05:53] yar, understandable [09:03:05] [16:06:23] But inless the post is disgusting or totally unnappropriate we leave them, if anything you edit the post adding a mod note at the bottom [09:03:05] [16:07:42] Also realized that V-Man put a perma ban on bullpup awhile ago. The ban is still listed in the mod cp, yet he is unbanned [09:03:05] [16:07:43] huh [09:03:05] [16:08:00] odd, must’ve been someone in the admin cp who removed it by changing his user group [09:03:05] <*buffextras> [16:19:05] grenadier!~oo@dynamic-87-105-66-213.ssp.dialog.net.pl parted with message: [] [09:03:05] <*buffextras> [15:21:53] stef|grue!~unarmed@p54B34F0B.dip0.t-ipconnect.de joined [09:03:05] [15:26:05] X-Ray_Dog: do you want to finish up some moderating before we talk or are you good to go? [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [15:28:22] What? [09:03:05] [15:32:20] you do remember our last conversation? [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [15:32:48] I do [09:03:05] [15:35:03] so this is your decision? [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [15:35:55] Vanquish removed his points fair and square. You dinged him for something silly that happened in IRC. Affecting his forum profile due to IRC for a petty little thing isn't fair. [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [15:36:20] We all take insults from people and in irc, it's an easy kick or temp ban to fix [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [15:36:33] Myself, I /ignore and problem fixed [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [15:36:58] You may have been in AC longer than I but I've been moderating the forum longer [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [15:37:23] There are many people that would agree with the way I do it and the way things are outlined in the mod forum [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [15:37:40] But you seem to have an underlying issue [09:03:05] [15:41:23] what issue would that be? [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [15:41:54] How would I know, you're taking it out on the forum [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [15:43:11] You're too quick to moderation [09:03:05] [15:45:53] so you say, insults and offtopic crap should be dealt with with a certain delay? what for? how long would that delay be? [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [15:46:41] If it's off topic, it's easily deleted. If it comes back again for being off topic, then you can dish out a warning. [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [15:46:53] If an off topic post is complete hate, then you can do a warning the first go [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [15:47:04] But you nearly insta ban people for single posts that aren't even that bad [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [15:47:34] These people aren't cheaters, they're sheep [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [15:48:03] They need guidance and slamming the door in their face for some stupid post makes it so they get no feedback [09:03:05] [15:51:19] would you like to give me an example? who did i insta ban since we last talked about mod rules? [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [15:54:31] I said nearly insta banning, vanquish in this case [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [15:54:41] 60% blocks posting ability [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [15:54:48] for something he did in irc [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [15:55:52] The last thing that got me was your thread split which was bitching about clan and blah blah blah [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [15:56:11] You deliberately used the word bitching but if anyone else did, you'd probably give them a warning, no? [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [15:56:18] You're supposed to be a leader [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [15:56:23] But you provoked them in this case [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [15:56:53] That's why I revoked the warnings in that thread because I don't think that was very fair, and just closed it [09:03:05] [16:04:52] when i split that last thread, i cut off the offtopic part and moved it to "offtopic" - i didn't delete it, because a) lucas was involved and b) it was only offtopic, so it could have continued in "offtopic" without problem [09:03:05] [16:05:04] you may notice at this point, that i did something, while you did nothing, even though you always say, "that you moderate the forum" [09:03:05] [16:05:25] when in fact you mostly don't [09:03:05] [16:06:12] when they started insulting, i started giving warnings - not before [09:03:05] [16:07:03] even though all of them would have known before the split, that they went offtopic [09:03:05] [16:08:04] and: they got single points [09:03:05] [16:09:17] however: I'd still like an example for "But you nearly insta ban people for single posts that aren't even that bad" [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [16:11:27] You've issued vanquish enough points to be banned [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [16:11:32] marti twice over [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [16:11:38] mise has quite a few [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [16:11:47] alert too [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [16:11:56] Most of these are for being off topic [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [16:12:03] As I had said before, just delete the posts [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [16:12:08] If they come up again, then warn [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [16:12:44] I very actively moderate the forum, just filter the moderator logs by my name [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [16:12:51] The last 20 results are all from this month [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [16:13:20] they're all posts deleted or threads moved [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [16:15:26] g1gantuan made a really off topic shit post that was completely cussing out the OP and I still only gave him 4 points [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [16:15:35] But you give 3 for off topic posts sometimes [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [16:31:39] Look, I've only revoked 3 of your warnings recently which means the rest are ok. I've expressed why I thought they were wrong too [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [16:31:43] I've g2g [09:03:05] [16:46:18] actually, you revoked all warning points that i gave during the last two weeks [09:03:05] [16:46:41] also: what happened to the warning logs? are you editing them? [09:03:05] [16:50:14] and: I'd still like an example for "But you nearly insta ban people for single posts that aren't even that bad" [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:38:30] actually, you revoked all warning points that i gave during the last two weeks [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:38:32] <@X-Ray_Dog> Look, I've only revoked 3 of your warnings recently [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:38:51] technically I only revoked two, I was wrong [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:38:54] Vanquish did the last one [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:39:11] I can't edit the warning log as you think [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:39:22] I can sort it or delete everything completely [09:03:05] [17:42:47] the warning vanquish gave me (and revoked) is gone [09:03:05] [17:42:55] instead i now have a warning from marti - would you care to explain that one? [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:43:18] http://forum.cubers.net/warnings.php?action=view&wid=612 [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:43:22] it's right there [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:43:41] vanquish never warned you, you warned him [09:03:05] [17:44:41] i showed you the warning and the message he sent me through the system [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:45:45] http://i.imgur.com/G7l7Zd4.png [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:45:48] This is your ss [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:45:55] I only see a marti on there [09:03:05] [17:47:17] it's a quote from marti, but the warning was from vanquish [09:03:05] [17:47:25] i showed it to you [09:03:05] [17:47:33] Titans can do that?? [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:47:53] vanquish isn't a titan [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:47:59] He's an actual mod for specific forums [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:48:11] marti is a tester and suggester and I mistook it for titan [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:48:16] Because they used to be titans [09:03:05] [17:48:20] your words [09:03:05] [17:48:23] how did i get a warning from marti? [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:49:24] I'm not even sure vanquish can warn you, let alone marti [09:03:05] [17:49:42] how did i get a warning from marti? [09:03:05] [17:49:57] you see that one, right? [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:51:21] I do yes but I can't play with it now [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:51:56] Revoke it if you want [09:03:05] [17:52:16] what did i get that warning for? [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:53:14] It's not tied to a post [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:54:22] k off again, 8 hour shift. Could be something in martis profile [09:03:05] [17:54:32] you remember, that i told you two days ago, that i won't be moderating the forum anymore? [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:54:48] You don't have to mod the forum, no one is forcing you :P [09:03:05] [17:54:54] you said, _you_ would moderate [09:03:05] [17:55:41] and i asked you earlier, if you had some catching up to do, moderating [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:56:44] Pretty sure you were making a reference to vanquish [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:56:59] Moderating the forum isn't the only thing I do around here and there are plenty of other people to look after the forum too [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:57:05] Anyone can report posts as well and they do [09:03:05] [17:58:23] you have time enough to moderate other moderators [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:58:50] I'm trying to keep an eye on everything as I can, yes [09:03:05] [17:58:54] you revoked martis single point, that he got for calling me an idiot, the same day he got it [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:59:01] THat's easy to click on the mod cp [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:59:10] Marti also joins irc and mesages me [09:03:05] [17:59:17] so, what did i get those three points for - any why do i still have them? [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:59:19] As do planty of others regarding the forum and other people [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:59:28] I revoked them [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:59:33] plenty** [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:59:43] The community talks to me openly [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:59:54] I join teamspeak sometimes, I'm in irc 24/7 to take messages [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [17:59:56] etc etc [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [18:00:14] I'm embedded in a way people are willing to talk to me and it helps in propper moderation [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [18:00:44] We all have different ideas of moderation but it's always been to simply delete offending posts [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [18:00:49] if it repeats, then warn [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [18:01:09] Lucas and RK used to take tons of shit from people and it took a lot of that before they went and banned or warned people [09:03:05] [18:02:10] did i in some way not follow the rules we set up for warnings? [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [18:03:20] You're jumping to warnings too quickly [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [18:03:30] We talked about this before [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [18:03:44] I won't stop you from moderating and warning people unless I feel it's out of line [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [18:03:47] aka that thread [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [18:03:55] But I've only revoked those two [09:03:05] [18:04:34] i won't be moderating the forum anymore - that's not what this is about [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [18:04:36] Undead has said tons of shit about me as well and I've only ever banned him for doing it to others, not myself [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [18:04:45] As an example [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [18:04:58] Rule of thumb has always been to get another mods opinion if someone is attacking you [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [18:05:24] RR can vouch for me on that specifically too [09:03:05] [18:05:38] but i am quite sure, that 1 point for a direct insult is not exceeding what we agreed upon [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [18:06:48] But it was in a thread that never should have existed [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [18:07:03] Because it was provoked [09:03:05] [18:07:17] yeah, that's bs [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [18:07:50] Again, if marti created a thread that said bitching about brc, would you have done anything? [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [18:07:52] Probably [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [18:08:01] So why can you do it? [09:03:05] [18:08:37] the thread needed a new title, the content didn't match the old title - which is why part of the thread was moved [09:03:05] [18:08:55] the edited title was accurate toi the content [09:03:05] [18:09:49] it was (in small parts) a legitimate discussion - which is why i didn't delete it [09:03:05] [18:10:21] and it was a single point [09:03:05] [18:10:26] for a direct insult [09:03:05] [18:10:52] if marti manages to get his level up to where it hurts, he should stop insulting [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [18:10:58] Everything in that thread was ok until lucas posted [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [18:11:04] "who gives a fuck really ? " [09:03:05] [18:11:06] ... which is btw the whole point of giving warnings [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [18:11:12] Should have stopped there [09:03:05] <@X-Ray_Dog> [18:11:27] But again, he's at 0% warning [09:03:05] [18:11:39] you could have, if you wanted to - you didn't [09:03:05] [18:12:10] if you see a thread that would warrant warning points for lucas, go ahead [09:03:05] [18:13:10] but again: i won't be moderating the forum anymore - that's not what this is about
