A strong enough community to get another web site up and running which is 4 to 5 times as large as the new nation thread is today. And will only grow. So yes, a big loss happened on this site the day we deicide we don’t need it. Glad no one really cares about your opinion. |
That discussion was all fine and dandy, or at least it would have been if you would have kept it within the rule set. A bunch of you simply couldnt do that. When we get reports from users complaining about spam over and over again, then you know it isnt a good thread for discussion. Same goes for reports about sexual harrasment. The list could go on. If you lot feel that you simply cant stick to that rule set, then a different forum is best for you. Im happy that a bunch of you decided to move along.
Some of you guys just didnt get it. If that means you need to up sticks for another forum, its fine by me.

"On the website, you'll see a link saying "Forum (beta)." Some members have already joined the forums and have been helping to get it started. That sounds real desperate... man your opinions are your own, but to me it doesn't seem like you are fully utilzing your crital thought ablities. That was the least amount of discussion in that entire post about anything, yet you see it as desperate to barely mention it? To me that reeks of flawed logic. Continuing in that fashion you imply that the quality of the (old)PS Nation thread was lacking. How do you define the quality of a discussion? People talking to each other, listening, responding, and enjoying a discussion (all in a respectful manner) is how I would define quality. To those who were participating in the discussion it was of high quality to them which is why it was so active. Those that didn't find value in that discussion didn't post that much if at all. There are many threads here in which the sole purpose of its creation is click bait and flame baiting and those topics quickly degrade into a lack of real discussion in lieu of e-peen envy. That is what this forum fosters and protects with its rules and mod team. Most of what you have posted in this topic Carl has not been founded in any real basis of fact and your impressions / perceptions are off greatly in the matter. |
Yes, I saw the fishing rod with pezus' name on it as being somewhat desperately trying to get people to go over.
The discussion in the old PS Nation thread frequently devolved into talk about fucking eachother or eachothers family members (Hi Raven!). Into pointless posting of off topic gifs and images. It was simply not PlayStation discussion. A thread in the Sony forum about PlayStation content simply should be focussed on PlayStation talk. People who frequent fthe forums should feel comfortable enough to enter any thread that isnt in the NSFW section. The truth is this - A bunch of users in that thread did indeed form a little community. The problem is, the very same members thought that they were above the rule set.
Im all for the odd, random joke in a thread or a little side chatter about football or whatever... But when it takes up so much of a thread then its a problem.
Aside from my own opinion on the quality of the old PS Nation thread, can you tell me what exactly has not been "founded in any real basis of fact"? Lets look back at what I said here.
Joe should be allowed to advertise his game here and Khan was blunt about the whole thing.
Same again here, but also letting people know why ethomaz is apparently leaving.
I told kirby he was out of order with his posts. As a side note, he would have been banned had he not said he was drunk and proceeded to go offline. I decided to give him a chance, seeing as how he hasnt had a Flaming moderation for about 6 Months.
I told Joe that posting links to his site, forums and videos is advertising (And that I had no real problem with him doing it).
Feel free to tell me exactly what Ive done wrong here. Im all ears.

can you really not see the bad precedent it starts to give someone leway because they say they are drunk?

All of the bolded make you look really professional. You shold have never been a mod car. You showed history of going in to the nation thread, reporting a bunch of people and braging about it else where on the fourms when you got a few people banned. The list of what you've doen right is much shorter, so let me post it for you.
Oh, look it's over.
Go ahead a ban me, doesn't matter. I'll just be laughing at you from over here.
Moderated - Kresnik.
A wild link appears!

Pope uses "direct mod complaints and issues towards the actual thread created specifically for this purpose", it's super effective! ? ?
| DD_Bwest said: can you really not see the bad precedent it starts to give someone leway because they say they are drunk? |
Sure. Im willing to take that on the chin too if axumblade disagrees with me. Like I said, I was about to moderate him until I saw that he was being drunk and stupid. Any more of it and he would indeed have been moderated for it. It would have been hypocritical of me to moderate someone for making a drunken mistake here, when I have done it myself in the not too distant past. Another mod may think differently, but thats not for me to say.
His behaviour since his last Flaming moderation is what swayed my decision. If only a Month ago he got banned for calling someone a douchebag for example then sure, I would have banned him. He has been fairly well behaved though, in terms of flaming/ baiting.
If you have a problem with how it was handled, feel free to send a pm to the head mod or the co-head... Or even post it in the designated thread to get thoughts from the other mods

Of course I found it to be a good thing when I got rule breakers banned. I want to actually enjoy my time on this site, not be annoyed by a bunch of off topic, rule breaking posts.
How long do you want me to ban you for?

Well, when you see how wrong Vg charts weekly sales are, you don't really want to stay huh..;Last month was a total joke, ALL regulars members got better predictions, it's ridiculous.
And well, it's a Us Site, so...

| DD_Bwest said: can you really not see the bad precedent it starts to give someone leway because they say they are drunk? |
If it means anything to you, after discussion with the other mods I decided to ban him for it anyway.
I was wrong to let it go beforehand.
