Do you think it is something worth bringing up in team chat.Quote:

Personally, I think that it should go down if the warning is months old and the member has not exhibited the same type of behaviour since that time. I also think that some of the things warned for are at times frivolous, I don't see a need to increase a warning level if someone has "misbehaved" in some way and stops after I send them a PM, unless the offense is particularly heinous.
As it currently stands, an increase in the warning system is permanent - they are not decreased.
Encouraging people to behave a certain way will possibly work better than battering them with a big stick when they don't. [/b][/quote]
I've done that as posted on page 1 ...still awaiting discussion, comments, remarks etc.
Actually, no, that was for something a little different related to warning levels.
@ J'Pol, there has been discussion on it recently, I've just bumped it.
It seems obvious to me, but if it's not the way the board wants to go then cool.
If and when I reach my warning limit I will obviously find out by default and go on my merry way. Knowing that there was nothing I could have done to lower the level.
I suspect that this will also happen to a lot of other people, given enough time. Who amongst us never crosses the line, or does the wrong thing.

Also thanks for that, again I didn't see your post before I made mine.
I have seen warning levels go down actually,Quote:

Whilst there are a few mods about, can we clarify the level going down as well as up issue.
Does it ever go down, or is it a one way street.
but it is not very often.
This is a issue we're going to be talking about in Team Chat.
I'd say there is improvements to make on the current system also.
Might take a while, as usual, as we get all the Mods online and chance
opinions before anything really happens, if it happens at all.
Also, I will be reading the board to see some fresh and good suggestions
(as always) and Moderating Threads if needed.
So I wouldnt hold my breath until you'd see changes.
:cool2:
GS
I am not one of life's breath holders.
It is enough for me that you are going to discuss it. If the consensus is against my opinion then that is as cool as a cool thing.
Leading a blameless life warnings are obviously something which do not effect me.
As ever I am only thinking about the little people.
I'm probably on the cliff as it is.Quote:

Is this true now that no one can be flamed?
Or just noobs?
If I get flamed can I flame back? I find it amusing at times. :lol: :lol: :lol:
Do we both get raised up?
Samsamsamsam for instance, he created these Stars that you see below your avatar, if he wanted to he could request they all be removed, but he's a nice guy and still wants to be part of the forum.Quote:

It would surely depend on
Those involved, the circumstances leading up to it and where it occured.
e.g. The Lounge is fairly loose, however Talk Club is more heavily moderated. They are there for different reasons, so that seems fair to me.
Samsamsamsam for instance, he created these Stars that you see below your avatar, if he wanted to he could request they all be removed, but he's a nice guy and still wants to be part of the forum. [/b][/quote]Quote:

He created them, there his its his right to have them removed from any public place.
Seems like this: You regular members use common sense in posting while we mods have a little behind the scenes talk and try to sort some things out. Apparently, I am now being told by other members, some guy sam getting banned really created a rumpus here, not for me to say.
Let's see how things shake out. Personally, I do not live blamelessly and in a style that belies my area of origin I can also be somewhat derogatory in a sarcastic way myself, which could be considered flaming. I don't think anybody is saying let's act like the Boy Scouts site, but obviously the mods need to have a consensus amongst them.
Disorder and chaos often start at the top remember.

do I have a warning level? :unsure:
Just my two cents... in my board, I do use the warning system... every time it will go up by 10%... if the member does not incur in the kind of behavior that earned him the warning it will go down by 10% each 30 days.
here my stance on it
with 7000+ post I'm consistently referring links and posting helpful replies, but sometimes some people go out of their way not reading, or overall being a jackass
I guess I should just ask for a ban
because what happens down the road after this has just blowed over and some n00b or even a regular gets their pantys in a bunch because the have no sense of humor
I mean I could post a funny pic and next thing I know be on moderation, doesn't seem fair
Maybe it's just you going out of your way to help people that act like retards 99% of the time anyway.Quote:

There are many other ways to help people in life. Try giving away your non-perishable goods to your local charity. :)
another great post by shn
thanks, but I plan on using those cans of cream corn and pumpkin pie filling some day
You've been a very helpful member on this board, your KVCD guide has been invaluable to myself and others.Quote:

I haven't read all your posts in the past but you are usually only a prick to those who act in a similar way. Which is pretty much true for all of us. But like most of us you only react this way, we don't go trolling the board looking for a fight.
There are a lot of people who only come to this board to "leech" a bit of info and then piss off again. They are usually the same people who get pissy when they think their questions/requests/demands haven't been met adequately.
Don't go muchspl you're a good member, we've been here the same length of time...we even have the same post count ffs. :lol:
thanks, and well thats how I feel about it, but apparently thats not how some mods see it
edit: i wonder how many people that reported me have post count over 100
not that it really matters, but if I help 10 a day and piss off only one noob I still consider myself doing more good than harm
this is the goddamn internet, grow some thicker skin or turn off your pc!
Folks should be able to ask a question without fully commiting themeselves as a member of the board.Quote:

To some people maybe that's all they want is a question answered, so what's wrong with answering their question and letting them go about their business.
If the board is that pressed for new members then gee.....................

I'm fine with that shn really.
It's just the people who come and take the mick, the ones who get stroppy when their questions aren't answered quickly enough, or get pissed if the answer doesn't suit them.
It's just a manners thing I guess.
What upsets a lot of people is the apparent arrogance displayed by those who know towards those who don't.
If you can't make a helpful reply then why bother?
Or did you emerge from your mothers' womb fully conversant in matters computing?
because its not fun copy/pasting
forward your ports 6881 to 6889
try jumping super nodes
try a different p2p like e-mule mirc bit torrent
you need winrar
no realy open the first file with winrar (000 or 001)
you need to mount it with deamon tools
you didn't put in the crack
you need videolan
no really videolan is all you need
yes if you want to play it in wmp, just download the klite codec pack
doing so would remove the fun of the board to me (& other I'm sure)
can't you see that if this place would suck if thats all that was posted :/
Well IMO others should be able to say what they want in accordance with not only how they feel but also pertaining to the initial subject of the topic as well.
This is the internet not winter wonderland. People will be mistreated, humiliated, talked about, lied to, hacked, corrupted, D0s'ed, banned, singled-out, and just about every other crappy thing you can think of. So naturally as humans we will at some times have an urge to speak our minds.
If I say "Fuck You" and you say "Fuck You 'too"" then that's pretty normal don't ya think?
It seems that the people in charge here only want the members to think and say happy thoughts and that's just not prudent with the atmosphere this board provides.
@shn-Hmm I see now they did away with it, but in the past people were able to post as "Guest" which led to much lameness and flaming (use proxy>flame unsuspecting site member) so then they created the Guest Only area, where non members could get all their questions answered, and that turned into flaming and lamerz posting warez and pr0n links. So I guess the Guest concept didn't work out too well, but I was gone (obviously) when they did away with it.Quote:

@muchspl2- I have read some of your posts and you seem aight to me, I can't call it.
Folks not every n00b is a lamer but again not all of them aren't either. Sometimes as mods people need to give the benefit of the doubt to somebody, like maybe they just had a bad day or were drunk or some shit, cause lord knows I have posted worse things, here on this board even, that were no big deal a week later.
Though frankly the internet is a Machiavellian world. Some people wither and go away, meaning they were never needed in the first place, others get strong and grow.

No-one is forcing you to answer a single one of these questions. If you don't want to give proper answers, just STFU. If you don't like the answers other people give, just STFU. If you can't give answers without being abusive, just STFU.
I guess in your case, all that boils down to STFU.
fuck you ®
it was my understanding you were to avoid me and I was to avoid you
so STFU and GTFO ------------>
kthxdie
Now both of you go to time out!
Fuck you too. :PQuote:

BAN!!! for flaming but not really but this thread is just about that :(
we surely can get past or bullshit fight or whatever but still have issue for a mod upping my warning level because he wants everyone to have happy fun thoughts
The warn level is a non issue, you won't get banned or moderated just because of the warnlevel. the warn level is a tool for the mods to log incidents. mainly the tougher ones. if a member is up for a ban or moderation period the warnlevels (mainly the content of them not the height of the level!) is one of the thing that is taken into account.....
;)
Error403 gave one reason as to why Samsamsamsam was banned was he had the highest warn level on the forum, is that even possible to check everybodys warn levelw ith a tool?
His was the highest, every mod that saw it once would never forget it. no tools needed for that ;)Quote:

But he wasn't banned because he had such a high level! But when he came up for discussion it was taken into the debate... so the proper way to use it imo.

Now i feel somewhat inadequate...
how do u think i felt getting 40% level for one incident...(and it wasn't for the one that got me initially banned)...and i never knew about my warn level...bender gave me 40% warning level for saying a few f-words at another member because he pissed me off...stop your bitching...
