Problems?

[Artille]

Re: Problems?

I don't like the fact that we are banning long time members over one word posts, smiley posts, or double posts. I have never reported somebody for something so small and stupid. I just delete a smiley post and single word posts, which I feel is the appropriate thing to do, not a banning. To remove this problem we could simply put a minimum character amount for posts. (Example-->20 character minimum per post, not including smileys.)

As for the rules, Danny told me he would implement them months ago, but never got around to them. He also stated that he would put subforums in "Tha Studio", but never got around to that either.

I would like to state one problem though. The whole JrockHQ being temp-banned could have been avoided if Bliss didn't continue the argument with him. I think us mods, including myself, need to just stop arguing with members and provoking them to get them banned. Mods on the MLG forum don't argue with regular members, but might sometimes have debates. Arguments on here are dumb as fuck! You guys try to outsmart your "opponent" and just drag on ridiculous spam.

My Problem? Stop banning members over stupid shit like double posting, smiley posts, and "co-signs" and start banning members that are constantly breaking the very "basic" rules that we have now. Also, I have become bored with getting on the forums everyday because there is nothing new to talk about, which could be fixed.

Solution? Come up with ways to make the forums more active. Maybe a fresh new layout, or vBulletin, would change things up a bit and make the forums more interesting. The tournaments that people are holding suck ass because they are not organized and there are not enough people participating.

Well Said Artille!

Ok first of all i think the 1 post shit is retarded...i understand the concept but all these members being banned are good members....mods are worried about the wrong things like dum shit like 1 word posts..there are threads just bashing one another are flaming that doesnt get tended to till 3-4 pages down...I think you need new mods..Global mods arent active at all then everyone once in a while one comes back for a day and has a ban parade.

WORRY ABOUT SPAM/FLAMMING/BASHING ONE ANOTHER > 1 word posts

1 word posts should be handled differently...a ban is over doing it..

MEH at this..just because i dont spam my frickin ass off doesnt mean im not active. I'm on here 24/7 man..i'm prob on here more than you are. too clarify..1 word posts are spam..shit like "lmao", "cosign" ..thats rubbish man and you know it. I do deal with spam, i do deal with flamming, I do deal with bashing. I got all that shit on lock..I can't read the whole forums, but trust me when I catch it..I deal with it.

i'm so sick of your complaining man...its really not that hard..really if you want to post meaningless shit at least construct a sentence out of it and i'll let it slip by me..really man its not that fucking hard.

dude your the one complaining. did he call you out? i think not. now give me my damn second warning for me telling you to shut the fuck up and have a good day[/quote:3a7civ7c]

He's acting like im the only one...im pretty sure 75% of the forum agrees.

Re: Problems?

I dont have a problem with the new rules but its weird that Normal Everyday Members are getting in trouble who usually CONTRIBUTE to the forum.
While saying that i understand that one two word posts are spam, i like the idea which was made by artille that a post should have at least 20 characters including spaces
and i also agree that the mods shouldnt show favouritism but it clashes that spammers such as _______ stay on even though the contribute jack all to the forums,
Which leads me to my final point my problem is that a nwe rule was impletmented without the consent of the WHOLE forums (not just the mods who cant speak for everyone)
Fix it- For future cases put the rule to the forum first then decide to implement it
Why its wrong- Because the forum is clashing two sides which present good cases

Re: Problems?

Respect - We do not appreciate members insulting other members on here by either bullying, racism or just nasty comments. Respect the decisions of the staff on this board too - they are here to keep the board spam free and help the forum run smoothly.

Double Posts - Posting after you have just previously posted without at least 3 hours in between will result in a warning for you.

Replies - Please try and not to use 1 or 2 word answers for posts as this is a community, which means communicate and make discussions Also don't keep posting in ALL CAPITALS as it is just pointless and considered as shouting.

Lil Wayne Fansite - This forum has been created for Weezy fans to discuss about Weezy! If you come here to just hate and be stupid, then you will be dealt with. We don't mind you sharing your opinion but obvious hate is not accepted.

Spam - Please don't make threads which have been made clearly for just advertising your website etc. Place all links in your signature and of course place a link in your post if it has relevance to the topic and will help a user out (common sense).

Three warnings = Temp ban

Everyone have a long hard look and read those, they are the rules. All of these things result in warnings. People are not being banned for one 1 or 2 word post, they are being warned. Look at the replies thing, you are NOT allowed to do it, it's a warning. Got a problem that badly, leave. You signed up, you should know the rules, you play by the rules, if you don't you get punished for breaking them.

What so you'd shoot someone and get arrested and tell the please your an active member of your community and they should let you off? Bullshit, it's the same fucking principle.

As for you Artille, you can Mod how you want and just delete them but saying:

I don't like the fact that we are banning long time members over one word posts, smiley posts, or double posts.

That shows favoritism to certain members, something a Mod should NOT be doing. You may think I do but believe me I don't. The Jrock ban also could have been avoided but I told him in thread not to spam or he'd be warned, he chose to continue to spam, he was warned. I was fair to him and could have just gave him a warning, I gave him a damn chance and he chose not to take it. Also I don't argue with him, he leaves sly comments, he says bullshit like I'm fixing the awards and stuff, I defend myself like anyone else would.

Again Artille you show that you do not know the rules by saying:

Stop banning members over stupid shit like double posting, smiley posts, and "co-signs" and start banning members that are constantly breaking the very "basic" rules that we have now.

We're doing what we should and stopping people getting away with breaking them and by doing so we hope that everyone will start making longer post that make conversation more and the site will be more active.

Re: Problems?

@IGNORANCEIsBliss --> Some use to say that I took moderating "too seriously". I now know that you hold that title, which is probably why you got moderator of the month (congrats). I do know the rules, but obviously I handle them in a more appropriate fashion. I would continue, but it is pointless because you will just reply with a pointless post about I show favoritism and that I should go kill myself, but worded fancy to make you look good. I also have school and need to get ready..... so, yeah.

Correction on a couple points, you've directly said kill yourself to me, I haven't once said anything like that to you. How can you say you know the rules, but like I quoted you previously you said we should enforce the current ones and that's what is being done. You will happily warn, or say someone needs to be banned if they are less active or new and they post a few 1 worders or smiley posts, but you won't to active members? Seriously that is favoritism.

I like how you made the IsBliss small though to try show I'm being ignorant, I'm just enforcing the rules, something that you said we should do and something you yourself should start doing. I don't think you're aware that 9/10 times I will tell someone or many people to stop spamming in a thread before giving warnings out. I don't think you're aware that I do delete some smiley or 1 worder posts if they are one-offs from members. When it has become more persistant they are now being warned to stop doing it.

Maybe if you were a more active Moderator and member to this site you would realise all of that. Maybe if you thought about what you said before you did I wouldn't need to reply showing how you're incorrect about things. Maybe if you wern't trying to win brownie points and you spoke to other Mods more you'd understand a lot more. But no you don't come on HQ much anymore because it bores you and the Tournaments aren't well organised, even though neither was your Written one.

You say we shouldn't argue yet you are with me now, contradiction much? Yeah I think it is.

But how about this, I'll talk to Chronic and see if we can run a test trial of your new rules for 48 hours and we'll see how members will like the fact you've put Mods > Members in them. We'll see how they like the fact they'll get warned and banned for a lot more and that they can get away with a lot less.

I'm not arguing with you, I'm stating my points which is what this thread was made for. I didn't mods > members however, but if thats how you see it then thats how YOU see it. I'm on everyday, but I just don't post much anymore, so there goes that one.

I'm done "arguing" with you, because obviously you are blind to the fact that you are lowering the activity of this website, which is exactly what this site DOES NOT need at this time.
