Hello I'm new

[Mitch Buchannon]

@blargoblargo is my friend. He is the big mang and I am the medium sized mang. We left a big message board up north due to a disagreement with some new evil policies. We have one more secret 3rd man who will be joining us this Friday.

What were the new policies?

I hope this is just character work, because if it isn't, then it does sound sketchy as fuck.

It's a whole thing, Robin.

What were the new policies?

Intentionally trying to start fights and arguments between people.

Here we just call that baiting.

We even have a couple of Masters in that around

The specific situation was that I had all of the trolls on "ignore", and the mods removed the "ignore" function so that you are forced to interact with the trolls.

That is just wrong. I usually chew trolls up before ignoring them. Before I would block them, I would post this game cover as a warning.




I would use it to tell them to shut up, and if they continued (they would) I would then put them on ignore.

I just ignored them immediately without even talking to them because they want you to engage with them.

You’ll find the exact opposite situation here. I thoroughly and adamantly encourage using the ignore button if you can’t interact with somebody in a positive manner on a regular basis.

I feel it would save a lot of problems if more people did this and lead to less moderation.

Ignoring me is a 7 day ban tho. I don’t recommend it

In a forum I used to moderate, if I had received a report of trolling, I would investigate and if I found evidence of trolling, I would ban said member for a few weeks or indefinitely for repeat offenders.

We also don’t do that here.

You pretty much have to get way way way out of hand to get banned here…even then it normally takes forever to be a permanent ban. Finally happened to one of our very very problematic members recently, after having by a bajillion chances

What did they do? Also what is up with one post banned users?

What didn’t they do?

Those are spam bots, that’s what is up with those.

Sorry to reply to this twice. On multiple forums I have been on, I would be banned for having an opposing opinion that a mod has and they would abuse their power and ban me. Looks like here, I won't worry about false bans.
