ChiefsPlanet OK, here's the deal... - Page 2

**DaFace** · 04-12-2011, 03:26 PM

As much fun as all of the controversy has been the last couple days, the mods have discussed all of this craziness (yes, there are enough of us to have discussion now!) and decided to clarify a few things. So...here ya go.

The rules aren't changing. They're the same as they've been for years.
We WILL be trying to enforce them a little more consistently. Things like bypassing the filters and threats will be handled when reported, and sometimes when they're not. Just depends on how cranky we are.
However, we aren't going to go banning people on sight unless they either refuse to comply or have been a repeat offender. You'll get a warning or two if you're doing something that's iffy.
The infractions system is not meant to be used to rapid-fire infractions to get someone banned. Anyone who uses them for that purpose (unless you're killing spammers) will lose the privs immediately.

That said, Hootie fully reinstated and can consider this a warning that he went too far. CC can consider this a warning not to abuse the infractions system (as can H5N1). GoChiefs would be unbanned as well, but you can't come back screaming "**** the mods" and expect that to be all fine and dandy. However, his sentence is being reduced back to two weeks. He needs some time to work on his next video anyway.

I know this whole deal has been a bit of a mess, but just wanted to reemphasize that nothing's changing. In general, don't be a douchebag, and you'll be fine. The end.

You KNOW what they are... why candy coat it. You aren't gonna get in trouble at work for having a cussword on your screen... you would get in trouble at work for wasting time on Chiefsplanet instead of actually working.

or you could... you know.... turn your ****ing filter off.

I think infractions are good in helping mods out. Maybe there's a way to not have the ability to ban after five?

Maybe there's a way for someone not give out multiple infractions for no reason?

Does no one read my posts? I am on universal ignore?

It has nothing to do with work mode or anything else. It has to do with ONE THING.. there is a filter that people can choose to use... if you bypass it, you are taking away THEIR choice.. it's NOT YOUR RIGHT TO DO THAT.

Just type the damn work out. We are NOT as a whole censoring bad words.. we are allowing people to censor for themselves.. same as we always have.

I agree. This is probably the worst tragedy in the history in the world.

Again, we're looking into it. Nothing's changing right now though.

You have to give a reason on each one. Maybe limit them to three per day or something?
