[serious] OTF Moderation input

[MOBIUS]

I tend to agree with Ming. (What have I become). After some discussion between mods. That thread re-opened.

To pick up on one point Lori made.

The "I don't know what they said, they are on my ignore list" post, being repeated dozens of times over dozens of threads is VERY BORING.

Ignore lists are for pussies - at least they have the courtesy for admitting who they are.

[ZEE]

Posting ignore lists are just a method of trolling certain posters for a good laugh (if thats what gets you going) and gives the person doing the ignoring the "trump card" in future troll attempts. It makes the person that complains about the ignore list seem to take things "too seriously," a hypocritical and popular internet troll since the 90's or so.

Works great on some people, others don't really care.

[SlowwHand]

I don't particularly agree tha it gives the Ignorer the trump card.
Take KH, as a for instance. By him putting me on ignore, I don't have to read his weirdass responses. Who won? It's at least even. The little prickhead can leave me on ignore for eternity and it would suit me fine.

[ZEE]

Who won?

this very concept is where you are wrong.

Somebody needs to get Ben out of my ****ing threads before my head explodes.

It's my understanding he wasn't allowed back until he promised not to bait me, but I don't know what else you'd call what he's doing. He's making a habit out of quickly posting in new threads I'm creating and posting obvious falsehoods and making active attempts to threadjack them.

Please do as you have threatened to and ban him for breaking his promise, just days later.

[MikeH]

As far as I'm concerned he's had his final warning. Any more and he's toast. I'm going to go and learn how to ban people. *sigh*

[MikeH]

OK Jon Miller has banned Ben for a day, if Ben persists with baiting Asher he'll get banned again for gradually increasing lengths of time.

Asher, if it does happen again, if you could do your best to ignore it until we spot it and deal with it that'd be good.

I Actually don't like the idea of banning for increasing lengths of time.

Asher, you don't bait Ben either.

[Asher]

Jon, I would never dream of it.

It's easier and I'm lazy.

[Asher]

Deleted after complaint.

Wow, a mere 2 posts after Jon asked you not to bait Ben. Amazing.

TBH If I'm going to break my banning hymen I'd like it to be with you Asher.

No love smiley?

That's not baiting Ben. Those are his words.

[MikeH]

My definition of baiting is posting something you know he won't be able to help responding to. eg. That.

I know you know exactly what you're doing and you know I know you know so let's not pretend either of us doesn't know what the other one knows. Clear?

[Asher]

Very well.
