ChiefsPlanet OK, here's the deal... - Page 3

**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.

true

but his wrong was a dare for my wrong, and everyone knows that

I offer no apology...this same thing happened in a different thread a year ago and he was warned...he did this because he wanted this to happen.

Plain and simple.

So we're bringing back tags? That's pretty much the gist of it?

"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."

Aren't the beginning and end of that paragraph a little contradictory?

Na, not really. But if you are coming back from being banned, I'd suggest that it's not a good way to get on anyone's good side.

Making infractions ineffective against anyone above a certain post count (50, for example) would still allow supporters to help get rid of the spammers, and it would limit the abuses. After the post count number is reached, there's still the ability to report the post.

Okay, okay. I'll put some pants on.

3 per day is still a lot. I've been falsely infracted(if that's word) for no ****ing reason before. That poster probably wasn't being serious, but still.

I know, I was just curious.

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 think the radiation and HAARP are getting to him, honestly.

Perhaps. My point was that we still aren't going to go hunting down every occurring of someone avoiding a filter, but we'll look into it if reported by someone else.
