There should be more than one forum moderator. The post has been reported, and that should not take more than 24h to handle.

Each forum should have its own moderator (or multiples), and all moderators should receive "reported" posts.


If they operate anything like we did when I was moderating a forum, a lot of times the guilty party simply isn't heard from again. We did not make big announcements that some one was banned, we just banned them and sent them an email stating such and the reason it happened.

Granted it seems an offensive post would be edited or removed though, and since I can't see it in the first place, I can't tell it if has been.

I found the image provided morbid and bad taste, and at the same time slightly funny. Morbid and bad taste does not belong on this forum, though. I would expect a mod edit quite quickly, but no other noise. If a user is banned/suspended I won't expect to see sign of that on the forum, apart from maybe a user going all quiet.

I am sick and tired of reading all this disastrous and inflammatory posts about poor Kayoz fellow. Have any of you guys tried to understand him? tried to appreciate his clever posts about the game's and actually the world's shortcomings... NO! ....DO all of you here require others to talk to you nicely in order to reply nicely? Don't you know that we have to keep together... we have to shake hands, hug and kiss (brotherly way, not the french way)... I mean... you'r all so mean. I am extrmeley disappointed in all of you there.

... green buttons, ignoring the poor fellow. That's not the way civilised people of the ugly 21st century should behave! We all have different opinions, norms and values...own beliefs. Do not be ignorant. Do not judge the guy just because he acts like a jerk. Try to aks him about how his day went, or if he finally managed to catch a lass or two... I mean I've read all his posts and whinings. Don't you understand? He only asks for all the troll messages and posters to go away. That's a decent thing to ask. He even uses that cute anti-troll spray that everyone hates so much.

Remember! Not all of us are priveledged enough to have a decent character. I remember back at achool .... I was in a so-called popular group of guys and we had this really, really lame nerd, this poor guy ...we were so mean to him ... and now he is very rich and I wish I was his friend back then so that I could hug him now... I don't know why I wrote that one...

Peace guys... release the true hippies hiding inside you all. Love everything and everyone. Someone posts something rude... HUG him! Hug him..he'll join you sooner or later. I think I am going to go hug my boss now and aks him why he wants to fire me....





IMG taken down :]

Hugging trolls is not a good idea. Just my personal opinion :]

Erik, doesn´t complying with your request at least require the person in question to understand the term
"reasonable civility and taste"? Remembering the content of post #5 in this thread does in no way suggest
the presence of this understanding.


"reasonable civility" also covers lying. It also covers attempts at bullying.

That would have been the appropriate response at the beginning - but no.

What happened? Personal insults and attacks. Flame war. Bullying. maybe if you and your cybor buddies had any intention of something other than being ****s, you'd have cut out the insults, attacks and bullying and tried ASKING.

Go cybor some more with Data & LoBaron - clearly it's what you get off on. And maybe light some cats on fire while you're at it. Right up your alley, ain't it?

It's offensive to people of other religions - remove it. Religious discussions inevitably end up in flame wars. You're clearly trying to start one.

There is a reason I never played Dead Space. I like sleeping through the night without nightmares.

Kayoz - do you feel offended by the picture I posted? If so I will remove it, just let me know. But for god's sake, cool down man. I can't help but notice that you are acting like a bad tempered five year old who had his toy taken away. Don't mistake forum troll control with cyber bullying and be thankful the admins are so considerate and haven't ban you yet for that outbursts of yours(but you are pushing it, for sure). I think you are overreacting dude....

How do personal attacks, insults and lies amount to "troll control"?

To the best of my knowledge there were none whatsoever, you are simply overreacting. What you do now is an intentional trolling (and we both know you know it) and that shows only a very bad side of your character. If I were you I would seriously consider re-thinking the whole thing and making amends. Unfortunately, I can't say I can fully understand the source of your anger because I simply fail to see any evidence which would support your accusations. Either way it's your mess and it should be in your best interest to clean it up, not mine.

Anyways, do you feel personally offended by the picture I posted, and do you really want me to take it down?

Indeed, a very nice post/picture. Thanks for posting that.

I think you got it all wrong. This is a game forum. Nothing more...nothing less. Just don't take it too seriously when you don't like some post. Ignore it. All people have different opinions. You cannot ask everyone to see things the same way.

What I am trying to say is just relax and take it easy. There is a very nice gaming community here. This is what brings us closer. We may be from different cultures but we do share many things in common. And playing this nice game is one of those. And I am sorry about my last post if some of you did find rather 'strange'.

Kayoz, I do have to reiterate though that your last post is appreciated.

Dead Space 2 has an ESRB rating of "M" - which means nobody under 17 should be playing it. Posting images from the game seems to be inconsistent with Erik's declared desire that the forums be "family friendly", and in very poor taste to be adding to an already contentious debate.

Ta. The quran is an oft overlooked source of wisdom. Being a primarily English speaking forum, it's often ignored in favour of more "politically correct" sources such as the Bible - or in this case Buddhism.

I'm not too bothered with being "green button'ed" by some more vitriolic and hypocritical members of the forum. In fact, I prefer it that way. Drastically reduces the static on the forum, as I don't have to deal with their ignorance, bullying and lies quite as often... now if only they'd just KEEP me "green-buttoned".

A belated thank-you.

A clarification from you on how personal insults and attacks constitutes "troll control" as opposed to simply bullying, would be appreciated. Or are you cool with statements like, "callous spirit within", and "revel at that child's suffering" - aren't personal attacks. Those statements passed, by far stating one's objection to a picture. Might I remind you that for all the insults and attacks, Webbco was the only one that bothered to ask for it to be taken down, rather than just continually spouting venomous insults.

I'm most interested in hearing the reasons for your vocal objection to me, and your deafening silence with regards to their actions.

Your recent reaction to my request to tone it down has resulted in an official warning. We issue one warning, after that a poster is banned for a period until they acknowledge they can abide by the forum rules. Current politics and religion are also discouraged on this forum, as they tend to create friction whereas the point of these forums is to share our common interest in gaming. There are other places to discuss the more touchy subjects that sometimes divide us.

Regards,

- Erik

Erik -

It was JHGT who brought religion to the forums. I asked for him to remove it, clearly stating my position and he refused. Shouldn't this warning be directed at him?
