Re: I'm leaving for now
WELL the community failure clause is supposed to stop people from gaming the system like that, but the mods are of course super leary about using that. I think they have maybe one time. And if they do invoke it more, you know a lot of people like Ironcross are going to complain. As jade said before, the mods just can't win. Maybe they just need thicker skins. Often the worst reactions are knee jerk ones which, after the complainer cools off2 or 3 days later, they realize oh hey, this really isn't so bad. Banning these kids who cockily say, I don't care if I get banned followed by something that blatantly disobeys the rules, would probably do the forum a favor, because it's only kids who are saying it and when you don't do anything besides warn them, it tells other kids that they can get away with doing similar things. If you need evidence, just look at this topic.
To reiterate the idea of the kids room, because I feel like it is worth repeating, there is a moderate sollution between letting them get away with it, and outright banning. add another group, that you move these troublemakers to call it kids or something of that sort. People in this group are only allowed to post in the kids room. similar to how restricted users can only post in the restricted users, introduce yourself to gain access. room. See, it makes life good for everyone. We don't have to read their imaturity unless we want to, and they're still allowed to do it in a sandbox environment where they can see that it's pretty much self destructive behavior. Win win.
