Re: gyy does not want your politics

Trying to come back to topic here...

What should I/we do about all the immaturity and harassment? Do we let the personal attacks continue? Is that what people want? If not, what should I do to prevent them, or react to them when they happen?

Re: gyy does not want your politics

I love the idea too, but I'd like to get everyone's opinion on it or other recommendations.

So far, the suggestions are:

  • Continue as is with Politics closed
  • Ban members ~1-2 days if they attack others

Yep if I find calling someone an asshole offensive means I have issues, I can live with that. You know what makes me laugh is time and time again when things like this get out of hand the offenders always try and pass it off as a bit of fun. I see exactly the same pattens at work in some of the harassment cases I've had to sit in on at work.

adam, i,m actually quite disgusted that i,ve been accused of personal attacks when i clearly attacked no one imo , this is going to be quite offensive to you and some other but i,m going to say it anyway... you guys have a right to protect other members from abuse and harrasment as moderater but as a mod where do u draw the line ? its quite clear your tolerance level is considerably lower than other people perceptions probably because u take the duty of mod pretty seriously and this is the prime example of what i,m talking about

Re: gyy does not want your politics

Lets do a vote on who we need to ban. top 5 get permenately booted! we need to restore some order here. this is getting out of control.

Sounds like the best suggestion yet. 15 names, they can all state their case and we all vote, top 5 go.Do we do One Man One Vote or the Alternative Vote

Re: gyy does not want your politics

I'm opening Politics back up. I'm still cautious about doing it due to egos, and am interested in how each of you think they should be handled

brilliant idea considering some of the tensions between people here and the fact that people cant differentiate between a joke and whats serious

#1496301Post 68 of 94

Re: gyy does not want your politics

I can't even think of 5 people to ban! I still think a few days away from MS would be a good idea. Maybe eventually said member(S) would eventually get tired of it and just drift away. Also, how would you handle members that clearly avoid the personal attacks but continuously shit disturb and egg people on? This place wouldn't be 3/4 as negative as it has been lately if it weren't for a particular member who keeps on complaining and getting offended by EVERYTHING! Seems they are doing it on purpose too!

simon it was just as painful replying to some of these posts, i like a lot of guys on this forum and although i have not been here as long as some of the guys here i honestly thought they understood my humour, i guess i was wrong!!!

it makes me think about future posts though, i feel like i cant post shit without upsetting someone

Re: gyy does not want your politics

if u wish to ban me don't bother just get someone to tell me that i,m no longer welcome and i,ll never come back...its as simple as that...if u think a 2-3 day ban is going to sort the problems out then think again it will only fuel rage

#1496379Post 75 of 94

Re: gyy does not want your politics

stop being so dramatic a ban is typically 30 days here..

I know one thing, and that is that I should stay for-sure.. I have asked for nothing but calm and understand that last couple months..

There really isn't an excuse for name calling and harassing people on here.. I think if you disagree just let it happen.. I mean obviously I'm all for trying to prove your point, but if it's a lost cause who cares.. Agree to disagree.

so u think i have called u names and made personal attacks on yourself by posting my posts? be honest in answering this because it was posts i made answering your posts that were deleted and i,m being totally honest here..this offended me... i find it highly odd that the post where i said ":lol: prick :P" to chunky's reply to one of my posts wasn't deleted when all the rest were so it kinda shows u that chunky in kinda unique on this forum by showing his distaste to this reply, christ even adam didn't delete that post but chunky obviously seen it as an attack on him... this place is gonna end in tears imo
