[Vicky.]

Don't tell me you can't see a pattern. Why people are leaving. It's such a shame

People are leaving because they have a problem with getting punished for breaking rules, and they have got it into their heads that the mods are out to get them and their buddies. Thats it.

When this is clearly not the case.

[Tom4784]

Fair to challenge someone who can't reply?

Well I obviously didn't realise he was banned but that shouldn't matter, he can challenge that point when he comes back as it's not going anywhere but it annoys me that we're seen as constantly plotting against certain members, it's annoying and presumptious to think we care that much about individual members to launch campaigns against them :laugh:

Yeah, people keep saying that, yet dont even know the story.

Do you all honestly think he would be permanently banned just for a few arguments on the forum?!

You are very much in the minority then :)

[Kerry]

Well I obviously didn't realise he was banned but that shouldn't matter, he can challenge that point when he comes back as it's not going anywhere but it annoys me that we're seen as constantly plotting against certain members, it's annoying and presumptious to think we care that much about individual members to launch campaigns against them :laugh:

Dezzy I have modded forums and even been an admin. I am perfectly aware of the flak admin/mods get believe me. To the point I even wanted to ditch the internet altogether. I'm quite aware how intense it gets.

[Kerry]

You are very much in the minority then :)

It's the whole atmosphere

[Tom4784]

Also, people are leaving because they're throwing tantrums over getting punished because they're arrogant enough to think they're never in the wrong so they always pass the buck and blame others before their selves. I've said this until I've gone blue in the face but Setanta had MANY chances, he broke a lot of rules and generally made the place unpleasant to use.

The thing is before the new wave of Moderators came on board there weren't many mods who were regurlarly on so I think a lot of stuff got through the filters because of the lack of staff at that time since more mods have been appointed we've been able to keep ahead of things and people can't handle the fact we're better at enforcing the rules more.

But people felt quite happy here at the "old" times, and I don't think that this forum was Sodom & Gomorrah just because of having a bit more freedom

[Kerry]

Dezzy, Setanta is a complete and utter pain in the arse. Trust me. I was public enemy number one. I'm sure theres plenty in mod towers about it. I'm not questioning those decisions. Only the fact NO ONE will be left soon and it was unfair to challenge someone who had just been banned and cannot reply (Clay)

[Tom4784]

the point is I think people got used to getting away with a lot more so when we started clamping down a bit more they couldn't handle it. Saying that though people are acting like we've become Guantanamo Bay when really we're still probably the most lenient forum I've ever come across.

[Kerry]

Can't understand why the forums actually tougher AFTER BB....

I don't say that this is not the fact, but a forum is also a place to have fun with each other, but it will not be fun anymore, as soon as nobody dares to speak freely anymore when it comes to certain topics... That also make people leave a forum.
Of course constant moaning and complaining also doesn't get us anywhere - A softer change may have been the better solution, but well

Well I don't know if a permaban spree happened when my back was turned but since I've been a mod we've only permabanned two people and one of those we overturned. We're not exactly banning everyone and anyone who gets a temp ban it's due to a build up of infractions so it's their own faults for it. If I'm honest I'm not bothered about the people who want to leave because they got infracted because that's just a bit silly really and most of these members just want to cause a bit of drama and come back a few minutes later. I'm more concerned about the other half of the forum that don't feel the need to blow up all the time over an infraction. Those are the ones that are gonna keep this forum alive not the burnouts that throw their toys out of the pram every opportunity they get.

With the post aimed at Claymores, this isn't a debate in real life. There's no time limits to posts, if he feels that strongly about it he can comment on it when his ban is up. I said it as a throwaway comment and it was generally aimed at all the amatuer conspiracy theorists that think we're some omnipotent evil force of doom.

[Kerry]

Think we're in the black books Malza :D

You're acting like we're the secret police or something. Speak freely all you want but if you've got questions about bans or infractions PM a mod but half the forum ignore that part because they want an audience and have no real intention of sorting out problems and only care about starting arguments.

That's why people get infracted because if we see a thread like that, we'll think you don't intend on solving whatever problem you have but are using it to cause drama. It's not like we don't explain to people enough that they should use PM if they have any problems it's just that they don't listen as they don't want to give up a reason to moan and bitch.

No idea what Clay thinks. I made the comment myself funnily enough. I don't speak for others

And you may not care what people with bans or infractions think. Why should you? Think again at Xmas though when the forums dead. Trust me, I've seen it

[Kerry]

Would love to know what James thinks about the modding (admin James)

Of course he'll back it up but I wonder what he really thinks.....

[Kerry]

PS I do view some mods as ace. It's not the whole lot. But there needs some consistancy is all....

Maybe a lot of people fear to get not treated fair when they doing it via PM, because they will not have any witness for what everyone has said :conf:

[Jessica.]

Gad ye all need a slap I swear, what are you taking the forum so seriously for?
Are ye drunk?

Just up at a different time Jess

[James]

I think it is pretty much fine. Just checked there and saw that Claymores has 36 previous infractions and warnings. I'd guess on many forums someone with that record would be banned a fair while ago. We are pretty lenient here really.

If people are leaving it is not because of overly-harsh or unfair moderating, more likely people not sticking to the rules and causing arguments.

[Jessica.]

Idk what you're on about. The mods do a good job, can't ye tell by me being banned all the time. I never complain when I am banned because a mods decision is final and ye should respect that.

Can understand that. But think a lot goes 'unseen'

And you may not care what people with bans or infractions think. Why should you? Think again at Xmas though when the forums dead. Trust me, I've seen it

The thing is the people who explode and leave because they can't handle being wrong are in the minority, from what I've seen most members take any infractions and move on. Like I said before these are the members that'll keep the forum going as the former type of members will always be destined to kick off and leave.

It's not like I don't care about people with infractions or bans, I've said more times then I care to remember that if you have a problem to talk to us as we do make mistakes and sometimes we act a bit too quickly so if you make a good case we can do overturn infractions and such. I just don't care for the members that can't be civil and fly off the handle, those kind of members are ticking timebombs and will always end up leaving and I'm not going to waste my time on somebody who can't be civil.

That's the only thing I ask of members if they wish to talk to me about mod or infraction stuff, it's the members who act like children I won't give no time to.

[Kerry]

So do I. Did I moan about my last infraction? No. Never even mentioned it.

That reason doesn't fly with me, if you want an audience it's because you want drama. If you want to talk to us we're always here, we're not monsters.

Perhaps if you also stop the 'you and us' mentality people will respect you more? Sorry but Mods are no better than users

If I've got a mentality it's because it's been installed in me by hostility from other members. I always try to be warm and friendly and ultimately if people bother to talk to me in PM, Also I don't wear my mod hat all the tiem and I regurlarly post in the forum, if I had such a mentality I wouldn't be able to intergrate as well as I do surely?

[James]

20 have expired.

[Malza]

Have to leave, it's past 5 here already, and I am a working person ;)

I wish all of you a good night, and unmoderated dreams :joker:

I understand that. As I said I've been there myself and you do become very defensive. But even during BB the barriers were lower than they are now and 'off season' is usually much more relaxed. At the moment I've never known it so angsty :(

Yet he's banned?

11 infractions are a lot, it's not surprising he's on a week long ban.

I might be misreading the forum but I find it to be much more relaxed in the last few days and we don't get nearly as many reports as we used to. I think it's just a minority of members causing the tension really. If i'm honest I've never known Tibb to feel this friendly, usually you have cliques going off at each other and endless arguments but that's not the case. It's a situation where the loud minority are overpowering the quiet majority.

I guess all I know is the people I get along with are unrested. I don't correspond really 'outside' the forum (MSN and suchlike) so can only go on what I see here so I may be absolutely wrong but a gut feeling..... somethings not right :(

Try looking into the reasons for the infractions, 8 because he winged about a certain permanently banned member being allowed back, surely a private word from a mod, explaining the situation would have cleared up that up without the need for a harsh punishment?

That reason doesn't fly with me, if you want an audience it's because you want drama. If you want to talk to us we're always here, we're not monsters.

Yeah whenever anyone complains about moderating decisions even if they have PM'ed staff with or without receiving a reply they are pretty much automatically infracted for causing drama, its a good coverall.

Perhaps if you also stop the 'you and us' mentality people will respect you more? Sorry but Mods are no better than users

Nah they wont stop the them or us mentality as they look down on us pondlife from TiBB towers.

Its a question of having dealt with drama putting it to the side and moving on, life is exactly the same, you will become embittered if you always dwell on past battles and view everyone with suspicion.

11 infractions are a lot, it's not surprising he's on a week long ban.

Look at the circumstances of those infractions.

What else can people do if they cant see Mods active on the forum? They know some mods are there but because the mods are "invisible" ro non staff they cant PM so they get fustrated and feel they have to post on the forum.

Yes I think you are misreading the forum, there may be less of those you view as troublemakers posting on the forums. The cliques are still there, it may just be because one of the group of cliques has staff as members.

Lets face it there were members on here accusing another member of what is classed as an international crime, yet mods just stood by and watched, yes I know the member was warned he even posted how he had only been warned. Just like a couple of nights ago another member even stated that people had deliberately ganged up against someone who recently copped for a ban.

Funny how that comment and a few others were deleted, but not by the member posting it, aint it. Of course there is no conspiracy but lets face it staff here dont like to be questioed or challenged on their decisions do they, thats at least an infraction isnt it?

Seeing as the permanently banned member was me and you've brought that up, I feel the need to comment.

Just to get things clear, he wasn't just moaning he told me to go and die, called me possibly the worse swear name in the world. He kept doing it constantly. Let's not make excuses, he is a grown man. Old enough to be my dad. It is common sense to know you don't say anything like that and not expect to be dealt with. His hate for me is unbelievable and it is not just me who notices it. His hate for me stemmed back before I got the permanent ban too so it was just an excuse for him to throw more insults at me.

I'm sure he doesn't need a word with a mod regarding me coming back as there was a thread already. Most got over it and unfortunately he still hasn't.

Sounds very dramatic Thomas, incidentally what is the worst swear word in the world, as opposed to copping some points for swearing on the forum, could you send it to me in a PM? I may not have been on at the time he was constantly calling you it.

Yeah i know he didnt appreciate your humour but then again its horses for courses.

Maybe he is a bit stuck in his ways, but think about it logically, you posting the above hasnt really helped heal the wounds has it?
