Making ALL penalties public.
 

I think it would make for a fairer more open forum if Warnings and Infractions were made public in the same way that Bans are.

Surely no one could object and it should not be difficult to implement.

Perhaps we could have a Referendum on my suggestion?

They technically already are on our user profiles, but I think some people can hide their profiles.

Good idea and can we have a proper definition of what is baiting and what is having a laugh please because I fear this term for infraction is being abused

:)

I'm all for that Kirk,all out in the open ,for all to see

Yes Kirk i agree with you, a very good suggestion.

Would have no issue with that at all

Oh I had one of those before a couple years back. Don't have a problem with the idea. Also don't see the point in it though.

Don't mind

members will be more informed about the reason for infractions and as such will promote better behavoir, it also allows members to see what mods are doing, a positive move

:)

Think it will just encourage the wrong type of discussion. Probably cause that awful clique vs the mods thing (part 2) if one of the squad was infracted for literally anything further along the line.

Was pretty neutral to the idea at first. Mostly against it now.

calling members "that awful clique" is against forum rules and is exactly what cases disharmony on the forum

may I ask you to edit that part out from your post?

I meant the awful 'clique v mods' not the 'awful clique' v the mods lol... it was awful, it was mass group bullying really, and I see it happening again if this is agreed.

Yes, so easy for members to bully mods who can infract, ban and delete posts as they see fit with no recourse

:joker:

but yes i understand your distinction even if i dont agree with the principal

What really is the problem with things being open and above board :shrug:

Wasn't that the night where like 9 people were banned lol or am I thinking of a different argument :suspect:

Doesn't really matter, I don't think this would be a great idea because people will just use it as a way to vent anger at the mods.

I think it would be a bad idea.

I can imagine if certain people saw somebody they dislike had say 3 open infractions they would try to bait them into an argument.

Where has anger been vented at mods?

Could just see more trouble arising, maybe I'd agree a few year ago when I was nosey and here for constant mess (no shade at people wanting this change)

That is a very negative attitude

:conf2:

Yes more opportunity for members to nitpick and whinge about moderator decisions, wonderful idea.

Mystic Meg?

name them and shame them!:hee:

i would be fine with this decision being made tbh

LOL

I don't think a crystal ball is required to know people wouldn't be able to control themselves :hee:
