You guys are being a little harsh. I'd of infracted most of you by now :D

Not really, Especially when you get given a warning/infraction for something when you didnt break any rules and then when you prove it he still refuses to do nothing, had plenty of other mods back me up on infractions that shouldn't of been given but DK seems to have his own set of rules, quite a few mods have given me them over the years and I have agreed with most of them however Dk knows he is in the wrong, He just enjoys giving me them

If you all don't settle down..i'm gonna have to get my deputy dog badge out and help king straiten you all out...now back away slowly and go back to the game...slowly now..:icon_twisted:

I can handle it gentlemen. ;P

Now then, does anyone else have any questions pertaining to the rules?

You make quite the interesting claim there. See, what you may not realize is that every moderator and elder moderator are all in one big Skype chat. Not one of them as come forth and said what you claim. Elders have instead back me up. Even been told a few times that I'm being to nice from time to time. If what you said was even half true, I wouldn't be a moderator right now.

You can throw a fit all you want, but none of that changes anything. You break a rule, you get in trouble. For instance, the following rule.

"Extreme content
Anything deemed politically or religiously extreme, pornographic, illegal, or unsavory in any way is prohibited in this game whether posted or referenced. Racist or ethnic bashing comments are forbidden even if used in jest. Mentioning drugs is allowed, but comments or pictures that play down the use of illegal drugs or promote the use of said substances are strictly forbidden (this includes pictures of someone smoking a joint or similar unless there's an appropriate context, which for example an avatar or a signature lacks). Please note that starring out characters like "F*ck" does not make it any less a swear word. It is still perfectly understandable and still intentionally offensive, and thus is forbidden in all forms. This is Similarly the case for Acronyms such as GTFO or STFU. The meanings are known, and they are warnable or infractable offences."

Any questions?

Yes, you will get in trouble. No, he will not. You are responsible for your own posts, no one else. No matter why you posted it the way you did.

Well actually , no butt kissing i do admire that he is a strick mod implementing rules and all but dwarven is a topic killer, making the flow of discussions dull. He is a good mod by principles but he lacks charms and tacfulness as forum mod. Furthermore, his ability to point out evry rules is quite astounding but sometimes he tend to forgot that the community is a group of organic being called people. Tbh, i dont like him as forum mod.

Depends how you interpret the content. It's not easy to differentiate. One person may find something racial or religiously extreme whereas another may not. It's all down to interpretation and you should look at it as openly and objectively as possible. Not saying you don't but I'm saying you can't just keep quoting it as rules because the rules are there to be interpreted. So Volga stating that she has had mods agree before is probably true because they may interpret them differently to you.

However sometimes I do feel you are a little OTT, especially about things being kept on topic, it almost always refers to the topic eventually without your input anyway :D

I assure you, find me on a world I don't mod, and you will see plenty of charm. ;)

When a moderator is assigned a section, he/she must remain unbiased and capable of enforcing the rules. Me looking away from the rules and being charming is the first step to start a fast growing snowball effect. Look at Stealthy for instance. I like him, but I can't be biased. Ask him yourself. His track record shows what I think of him in terms of the rules.

Being a forum moderator is a job. A job that should be taken seriously. What exactly is that job? To make sure the rules are followed. If you are posting in a section I mod, it's best you understand I am not modding it to be your friend.

I agree with you and do my best to look at things openly. But, should you post something like, "wtf" or "**** you", there is no room for interpretation. Things like that are in clear violation of the rules.

I've told Volga about this, and now I shall mention it here for further clarification. All moderators and elder moderators are in a Skype chat together and speak daily. Not one has spoken out in defense of my actions taken against Volga and her blatant rule breaking. I assure you, if even half of what she said was true, I would not be a moderator right now.

I'm not saying she IS right, I'm saying there is a possibility and that also it's about how you interpret a statement made. You've just kinda proven my point tbf.

Please check edit.

Almost all my infractions I have been giving out have dealt with breaking the "F word" rule. That's why it's the very first thing I mention in this thread. When it comes to that, there is no room for interpretation. So, no, there is no possibility of me overreacting.

Sent you a message on skype proving you wrong, if you wish to continue to spread lies please do.

I'm impressed this open discussion is still ongoing. A lot of vbulletin mods would have closed it by now.

And I have replied explaining to you that again, no other moderator has contacted me and defended you. Honestly, you're becoming rather tiresome. Especially when this is over a simple warning that has long expired. And not only that, but I have told you it was discussed with an Elder and it was decided that warnings for that would be no more due to the lack of activity on the forums.

We can go round and round here, but at the end of the day, I'll still have my job as a moderator because it has been decided by those higher than me that I am doing my job correctly.

There have been plenty of questions regarding the rules asked here, and I much enjoy that. The more everyone understands the rules, the less likely those rules are broken.

With that being said, any further replies from me on this thread will only be towards questions pertaining to the rules.

[20:24:28] Leah | Volga: you were saying what i was claiming was false[20:24:31] Leah | Volga: 'had plenty of other mods back me up on infractions that shouldn't of been given but DK seems to have his own set of rules,'
[20:25:04] Leah | Volga: you said they didnt speak to you about it to try and justify you were right and no mods agreed with me
[20:25:28] Leah | Volga: when infact they dont have to speak to you to not agree with you
[20:25:54] Leah | Volga: you worded it cleverly but you were still saying my claims were false which they werent

I provided you a screenshot of a mod agreeing you were harsh in giving me the warning or are you going to deny that? but realising you are wrong you want to end the discussion same as you did on skype

Strange? Surely you jest. A false statement was made and I merely corrected it. Now, should Roman ask me to edit my post, I will happily comply.

It is regarded as an infraction regardless of your opinion. Please do not be misleading in future defences, much appreciated. Not complaining though.

*Anyway DK is relatively casual compared to other mods. Andy would have infracted at the thinnest reference to any negative comment, consider yourselves lucky.

On the contrary, it's only considered an infraction on that specific page because the forums can't make two different categories (or some nonsense, I'm not a coder, so it's beyond me). In actuality, there is a distinct difference. A warning is simply a way of telling you that you're breaking a minor rule while also showing other moderators that you have already been informed of said rule. An infraction on the other hand racks up points that cause an automatic ban when four are acquired in the same time period. So when speaking of infractions and warnings, it's imperative that one be specific. In this case, it was a warning given to you, not an infraction.

But alas, we're merely arguing terms for a situation that is no longer affecting your account (afterall, you have zero points).

As for your opinion, I believe everyone deserves to have their voices heard, so long as it's within the rules. And if you thought Andy was bad, you should have seen Jirki in Off-Topic during the first couple of years this game was started. o.o
