So bsm please consider this a warning. Fix your mistake before you get reported for breaking a rule of suspending without due process.


I was the first one to do it with the agreement of multiple mods and then stated in the thread that the punishment would apply to other ppl who trolled as well and he chose to do so anyway, the entire mod team is aware of all of this


Funny how bsm quotes only half her statement and not the last part where she says the entire mod team is aware.

what did firecape do


said homophobic things which apparently aren't a hc vio


How is it not hateful. And if by some miracle it isnt hateful then how is it worthy of suspension.


it is hateful lol just some people dont think so : )

I don't understand
if something deserved a forum suspension, but not an HC violation you need to re-evaluate what hateful comments actually is. I think we've gone through this multiple times before. A user being specifically hateful towards a certain group doesn't receive HC; god forbid he used a word that didn't even remotely implicate the group which is when he gets a violation?

Braindead mods thinking it is ok to ban or suspend people without violations. And calling it not unreasonable is the height of stupidity.

Pranay do you even know what firecape said? Were you even online? Do you really bloody care this much? Can't you just stop fcking crying about something the mods do for 1 day?

I wasn't online when firecape was suspended so i don't know what was said but its not unreasonable to forum ban him for 24 hours without giving him a violation.


I am not saying dont ban him. But could you please give him a vio too? If he did something which was too much against the rules then he should get a vio too. And if he didnt break any rule then no matter whose mom he fukd u have no right to suspend him. It is just blatant misuse of suspension keys. It does not matter if i wasnt there. But the epicmafia rules were there. How do you expect the users to follow the rules if the mods break the most basic rules.

Do you see how the floodgates have been opened ever since the last time it was done. Grow up. Learn to follow the rules instead of bringing in your personal bias.

MOREOVER IT WAS SAID HERE THAT IT WAS DISCUSSED WITH ALL MODS. SO WERE YOU PART OF THAT DISCUSSION?


It was the discussion between all online mods at the time, not the entirety of the mod team bc that will likely never happen.


Then may be a mod should clarify that instead of saying "entire mod team"

And tell me what is the problem with giving a vio to firecape right now so that his ban is justified.

Saying that a mod breaking a rule to suspend someone is not unreasonable is just sugar quoting your opinion and disagreement with what was done.
over 6 years
Yes it is. Because applying vios is not hard. A mod is expected to work hard. Filing a report is the most basic of the job. And so is applying the vio.

MOST IMPORTANT PART OF THIS ENTIRE CONVERSATION RIGHT NOW IS THAT I AM NOT FUKING ASKING THE MODS TO GO AND UNDO WHAT THEY DID OR ASKING THEM TO STEP DOWN. I AM FUKING ASKING THEM TO AT LEAST FUKING FILE A REPORT A GIVE A VIO RIGHT NOW. SO HE GETS A PROPER FUKING DOCUMENTATION AND AN UNBAN DATE. IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK. NOW THAT THE SITUATION IS HANDLED ARE YOU GUYS STILL RUSHED OR BUSY?

AND IF IT WASNT VIO WORTHY THEN A PERSONAL OPINION OF MOD WANTING TO FIX IT DOES NOT GIVE THE MOD THE RIGHT TO DO THAT.

comment delete with a pm was probably the best course of action and arguing against that is kinda silly

situation got escalated since another user was constantly posting stuff that was deemed bad enough to be deleted/etc and given a forum suspension and they used that as a warning to other users not to follow the same path

given that context, yes, firecape being suspended was probably a little harsh (i cant remember what he said), but its not unreasonable if a mod wanted to fix the situation without applying violations

If only we had a proper report and documentation system to stop people from breaking rules. Then we wont have to break rules ourselves and start controversies and have time to do constructive stuff.

blacksnakemoan says

what due process do you want pranay, because i'm not going to sit here all day and file a report on everything i see


Hahaha, so you're saying that it did warrant a vio? Did you ever consider the concept of documentation, whereby if he does it again in the future whichever mod happens to handle it is aware of what he's done in the past?

Or are you expecting future mods to search through thousands of pages of mod actions and hundreds of forum topics for every single report just to see if some lazy mod didn't document something?


I'm not disagreeing with you because frankly i have no idea who or what you are both speaking about i just want to point out that the mod chat being on discord now makes everything 10x easier so that we don't have to "search through thousands of mod actions" or have random mod forums.
