He got demodded from Super Moderator to Moderator. Though in my eyes, should have been removed from the staff completely.

 

 

Au Contraire, Mes Ami's

 

I think HE should be banned for "3 Months" instead of Rogue/Frunk/Reece/Whatever.

 

According to me, Frunk has been a MUCH better Mod then Icyblue/Joshicy

 

I'm gunna get banned for this am'n't I?

Just take a look at the staff list, Icy's not on there.

 

 

Just take a look at JoshIcy's account, he's still listed as a moderator

Who knows? When it comes with the moderators on YCM, it's a 50/50 chance.

It doesn't really matter. Just someone with good, fair knowledge of this forum.

 

I've actually half-written a chapter of the Chronicle about Sartorism but never got around to finishing it.

 

 

*finish it, finish it, finish it*

 

I can easily re-write the club section rules, but rules for the WHOLE forum...nah.

It was just a mistake. You know this. I didnt even deal it, nor did I suggest it.

You wanna walk all you like, you wanna make a public display of a matter that was solved MINUTES after you logged in. Go ahead.

 

I should have know better and talked to you. I didn't, and yet it was finished, again minutes after you logged in. So now you're taking a personal vendetta and making a public mockery of it? Alright then. Have fun with that.

I remember the discussion on this. I can't remember the outcome

 

Usually it's a good idea to read beyond the first sentence of a thread...

 

Anyways, What do you think Icy would say, If he were reading this?

 

I'm sure he will read it, though there's not much he can say, as what's done is done.

Mockery? No. I've been done an injustice and it's important people know.

 

This thread is also about how the rules, in particular Rule 21, need to change.

Now, Now, let's not get hasty, you did suggest the 3 months ban....

Mockery? I wouldn't call it mockery, I call it his rights to express his feelings about it.

There We Go Again With The Over-Reacting

Then change Rule 21, redefine it. But don't go walking over a situation that was solved very fast as soon as you logged in. So you were banned on accident, for what...? 30min (since you clearly werent logged in at the time)? And you're moaning and groaning about it?

 

@Above: That was just that wasnt it? I suggest 3 months turning a blind eye to what reason, it was just that all mods who broke a rule were banned for 3 months. No more to it.

 

And yes, expressing his feelings. Nothing to get riled up about, considering it came to a close quickly.

Rule 21 is in need of major change, or more enforcement. I can see a violation above me...

I tend to see that rule as this. 1) Give member 24 hours to remove - tell by PM. 2) They will usually comply, if not remove it yourself. 3) If they readded it, ban for a few days.

He's not complaining about how long it took to fix, he's complaining that it happened at all. There wouldn't be a need to fix it if it never happened. And it shouldn't have happened.

It was no accident. It was incompetence, and, I suspect, bias.

 

And you want me, someone who uses the site a couple of times a month, to be the one to decide the rules of YCM - A site as complicated as you suggest?

Josh, it's less about the punishment received, and more about the incompetence it shows on your part. The fact that you assumed he had been warned, and then banned him, for a small infraction that Reece himself admits would have been resolved had he just been asked to remove the link, is the problem. You say it's a little things, and seem to be making the case that because it happened in a small spam of time, that it shouldn't matter. But it does matter. It matters that you overreacted, it matters that the rules are archaic, and it matters that this be brought up, as leaving it in the dark wouldn't serve any purpose at all.

I'm quite good at writing rules.

 

The previous system, upon my overview, seems too wordy.

 

There is no need for twenty-four clauses with elaborations; only a few are really necessary.

 

Those essential include, basically three, proper content, proper conduct and punishments.

 

The absolute most important thing after the rules is enforcement.

 

Moderators must act quickly and diligently to maintain order and respect.

It was a mistake, I apologize of the severity and should have known far better and I'm happy it was solved quickly. At one point in that convo, (towards the end and prior to Browarod saying it was me who suggested the time), I even admitted defeat and wanted to go revoke it myself albeit quietly "Can you give it a week while we figure out the new systems?" Me not wanting to post a thread, was a quiet way of saying it's my fault.

 

Alls well though, just some frustration. So fine. Lets talk about this broken rule shall we?

 

Nothing may be advertised anywhere on this site without prior permission from YCMaker. This inculdes, but is not limited to

- Real-life products or similar, non-internet related goods, services, or information.

- Other websites, forums, services, or online-shopping sites.

If you are unsure, do not post, or PM YCMaker directly. This rule includes the advertising of external information or any of the above in new threads, replies to threads, signatures, or elsewhere in your user profile. Advertising material will be removed from wherever you have placed it without warning, and depending on what has been advertised, and/or if you repeatedly offend, you can and likely will be banned, temporarily or permanently, to be determined by the moderator(s) who hands down the ban.

 

Users can link to websites that they believe will provide useful information or any other kind of reference/tool that this site does not already provide. Sites such as forums or other types of social communities should only be linked to via the website field on a user's profile (a button will appear at the bottom of their post labeled www).

 

Ok, so things HAVE changed a lot. YCMaker and Falling Pizza will notify us when a link bothers them. So those arent needed (malicious links are a given for removal and the 37forums was not malicious- well... maybe the people haha but sarcasm aside yea). Real Life Products/Non Internet related items seems to be subject to how its used as such websites recieve traffic enough and YCM wouldn't drop population suddenly because of it. Other websites etc, as long as its not involved in some cross site drama thats fine.

 

Penalities must be less severe, but still there or not at all just a slap on the wrist. The rest is fine yes?
