It doesnt show his mod status on this page but does on the last page. Also he has no players or teams and his sign up date was for today and so is his last login.




It's just a shame that multi name was wasted on something so trivial. Could have resulted in potential lulz.

lolyes. You assumed that I posted it for the stuttering effect, but I really posted it for the speed script read out that showed him slowing over the course of the play. My claim that energy affects dots over the course of a play was later then verified by Bort himself. You owe me an apology.

By "certain people" you clearly mean "most people"? Regardless, it is obviously irrelevant to the point whether you understand what it is referencing or not.

And if you truly cared, using the context of the post makes it pretty easy to google.

That is why you posted it, which is why even the people disagreeing with me made fun of your posts.

No it wasn't. You (and they) just assumed it was. No where in that thread did I say the stutter effect was a result of energy loss (though it might be an indirect result of energy loss causing lower active vision). In fact, two posts earlier I stated that returners slow, but do not come to a dead stop, over the course of a play due to energy loss. Now I think it's time for you apologize for that thread and now for this one as well.

Wow, and you guys thought I de-railed the topic.

Back on topic...

In the end though, no matter what is done you will have some disagree with it. If it's too strict, then some that want freedom to play will be mad. If you are too lenient, then it will drive away a lot of people (seen it too many times). In the end, when people on both sides are complaining it typically means there is a happy medium being observed. While that is not currently happening, it is not nearly as extreme as the vocal minority want to pretend.


Quite frankly, my complaint is neither that the moderation is too strict OR too lenient. It's that it's too inconsistent.

I can (and in fact, once did!) post a 3 page-down profanity-laced tirade about a bug in the game. 3 Mods who happen to agree with my tirade can let it go and even post replies in the thread saying they agree with me, and let the thread stay alive for 3 days, and then a 4th mod can come along 3 days later and give me a forum ban. Why?

User A can personally insult User B. User B can slightly re-word the exact same personal insult and post it back to User A. User B gets banned. User A doesn't. Why?

User J can regularly insult multiple people in threads usually with no consequence, but then at some point he'll get a forum-ban out of nowhere for doing the exact same thing he's been doing consequence-free for a while. Why?

User C can quote a post where User X used profanity. User C gets banned for profanity. User X doesn't. Why?

These are all issues that have been brought up in this thread, and we're just scratching the surface of the moderation problems on this site.

.....

If you want the mods to be hands-off and let stuff go, that's fine. I'll deal. I'll do what Dub J did and learn to fight fire with fire.

If you want the mods to be strict and to-the-letter, that's fine. I'll toe the line and watch what I post.

But don't be inconsistent. Don't have some mods who are super-strict mixed with other mods who are hands-off. Don't have mods who are strict with some users and hands-off with others. Don't put rules on the list that you have no intention of actually enforcing. Don't punish people for violating rules that aren't actually on the rules list.

Just be consistent. That's all I'm asking for.

And that's just how it will be until the Super Moderation Robot 2000 is created.

Then again, after a bug with the programming is fixed, people would complain about the inconsistency for years to come, citing this one example that was different one time than another time.

It ain't ever gonna be perfect, sure.

But it can sure as hell be a lot more consistent than it is now.

speaking user X and dub J, here's the part of the rules that confuses me the most:

"Example:Telling a user that they should do illegal drug A because illegal drug C is "better"."
