Prescient!

Your policy is literally just your feels

[alex]

Doubling ban lengths indefinitely is some insane shit.

[cassette]

CW you’re not supposed to act on flags that involve you. Last time you said that the issue was an immediate threat to your wellbeing so you had to. I don’t see that this time.

That’s not the rule.

right the rule is

(HD) Judge Dredd - I Am The Law Speech

@otatop

That’s not the rule.

Last time I brought this up, CW agreed that it was.

@anon38180840

I think I made it pretty clear that there was no maximum suspension length.

I believe permabans were voted down as a moderation tool. meb tried to angle around that with 10-year bans and now you are trying to angle around it.

@anon59375068

right the rule is

It’s pretty straightforward really

RFC: Mods should not resolve flags against their own posts.
Mods should recuse themselves from taking action on a flagged post when they authored the post.

[cassette]

I don’t see that as relevant. CW is the head mod and he agreed with me last time that mods should defer to other mods when the flag involves them.

Well we all know I’m bad at reading polls but I think you’re wrong here

Community vote: Permanent bans

CLICK HERE TO VOTE Proposed rule (single rule with two pieces): All permanently banned or silenced users shall have their original user name reinstated upon request. Or they may choose to come back under a new user name with no penalty. They will not be required to link their old and new identities. Except for obvious spam accounts, no user shall be permanently banned until the forum passes rules governing permanent bans. For more discussion on this rule, see here and here. poll Poll …

Maybe there’s a more recent poll than July though.

Letting trolls shit on the carpet over and over is even more insane, yet here we are.

[anon59375068]

Well the forum threw a fit when I banned cuse for like 14 hours for abusing the post report function so this is all pretty comical to me. Cuse invoked that rule at the time, which was at least as broad an interpretation as cassette’s. But this is all just Judge Dredd shit now so who cares.

[MaxCut]

I figure there must have been some rule, given meb going with the 10-year thing instead of perms.

I hereby nominate Trolly for mod.

[DrModern]

This thread is utterly incomprehensible, you guys. What the hell happened? What is this debate even about?

(I’m positive I typed “this debate” the first time.)

Jbro was not moderated for a personal attack on me, he was moderated for referencing old drama. Doesn’t matter who it involved. I haven’t acted on any of the current personal attacks directed at me ITT.

[MrWookie]

Max demands a pound of flesh in response for any mod action on a forum he doesn’t participate on except to complain about moderation.
