Your rules sound like people are only allowed to start threads if they have nothing else to do in their life, looking at rule 1, 2 and 5 espacially

You can complain all you want, but nothing will change
that's the unfortunate truth, but is what it is.

Moderations start at warnings where people get officially told what they shouldn't do. Some of the poor conduct would still require repeat offenses to justify the first official warning, but the moderation tools in and of themselves are not a problem. |
I know there's warnings, I'm mainly worried about all warnings being treated as equals. It's especially bad if there's a system for automatically banning users with enough warnings (I don't know if there's one here). It'd be quite flexible if each user had a warning level, from 0 too 100 for example, and they could be warned with any number of points from 0 to 100. Lesser offenses would be worth less points, bigger offenses worth more. It would be quite flexible. Of course I don't think it's going to happen here, but it's a thought anyway.

Don't you think you're exaggerating by quite a bit? The first point doesn't require all that much effort, the second point takes almost no extra effort at all, and the fifth point is there to ensure that if you're going to make wild claims, you're also going to defend them. In normal situations, the fifth point wouldn't have much use.

This is the moderator I voted for.
Seriously, If anybody want to improve anything on this forum, lets check vivster's post history first.
Also on emore thing - Moderation team is very inconsistent already, no need to further "improve" it :P

Ahh, is this some insider knowledge that you're giving us?

Sounds like a good thing to me.
And again, those aren't my rules. Those rules have existed since the beginning of the internet. VGC is one of the very few forums that so far has not acknowledged their existence.
If people just want to blurt their opinion out into the open world there's Twitter and Facebook. This is a forum that at least officially exists to encourage discussion. A good discussion is nurtured by a high quality opener.
If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

I like those rules even more, seeing how their biggest offenders are so against them.

There's no system for automatic bans. All kinds of moderations allow the mod team to write descriptive and comprehensive notes for the type of violation that was committed. The different types of violations are treated separately, so for example, spam doesn't stack with trolling. |
Ah, I see. Thanks for the information. I wouldn't know since I've never been on either side of moderation.

Hey. That's "LivingMetal" mind you.
