it always was. I disagreed strongly when it was removed. I'm not talking specifically about that pm but just the possibility of saying "kill yourself" to the wrong person should make it harassment if it's reported and not just two friends talking to each other jokingly. A lot of people said well if *that* could put you over the edge you have problems, but that's exactly the point. So yeah, I'd make it an exception along with death threats.
As far as "die ginger die" goes, it doesn't seem like an explicit threat but considering the past with slow it should've been a note at least

moreover, what do i have to spite kaylag over? i clearly don't even know who she is, no less was not offended by anything she said.
are you really gonna try to sell yourself as the "if you break the rules i WILL report you" type now, because i totally expect reports for every censor bypass from here forward if that's the case
i think harassment should be that if someone's trying to flagrantly harass someone, then they deserve a harassment vio and don't have to meet criteria to get it. it prevents people like me from reporting and punishing people who harass others.
I agree with this.
The differentiation between people feeling harassed and people feeling offended has become much less clear and a rule should work towards undoing that.

I thought the first vio being a warning was supposed to be used in instances like these. If the users are going to get a verbal warning instead, then the first vio should go straight to 12H Susp. & 24H Forum Susp.

well i mean, at the risk of losing a justified harassment vio, i wasn't offended in any sense of the word, it's just very clear that kaylag was trying to offend/disturb me and was harassing me basically. there's no reason to think it's a joke when she specifically waited until after the OGI vio went through to send that PM.
just my $.02 (:
dont violation scrounge, dont be connor. you know kaylag didnt actually do anything wrong and this is a spite report
haha what

i think intent is more important than if someone was offended, and i don't really see it being abusable for report spam/petty vios if someone wasn't harassing in the first place.
it shouldn't be multiple times = vio it should be 0 tolerance + first offence = vio intent shouldn't be difficult to judge considering who's going to report a friend for shared banter
i think harassment should be that if someone's trying to flagrantly harass someone, then they deserve a harassment vio and don't have to meet criteria to get it. it prevents people like me from reporting and punishing people who harass others.
anyway i don't have a problem so long as quelaag gets the vio. i'd recommend changing the harassment rule but i rarely have to deal with harassment so i'll leave that 2 da mods (:
I sounded cold hearted originally, what i meant is I agree, but the ruling of harassment is such that you can't get a vio just because you said something mean to someone & they don't like you so they're gonna get you banned.
So we need to work something either into there, or as part of something else
Then you need to be making a case for the rule to be changed
i agree that no one should be going around telling people to kill themselves so this is your chance

i see no reason why i have to be offended to get someone a harassment vio. i'm reporting it because if ind it objectionable and i don't condone that behavior and find it deserves a punishment. if i don't report it, it's likely going to repeat itself.
