Stampsyne Frozen 10/28 - updates and discussion

[vinylraven]

Thankx

Back on subject: What would be a solid freezable offense?

hmm....making up scams, trying to get peoples passwords, links to cookie grabbers and fake log-ons, progs to autobuy or cheat on a game, links to pornography sites or porn images in shop/userlookup, im sure there are more

Immature or blatant (not vague, light, or civil) discussion of religion and politics. I haven't been given specifics on why I was frozen other than "continuing to break the rules".

Uh... That's why you were frozen, I don't think that is something you think people should be frozen for, right? I may be wrong.

I think cheating, especially for trophies, should be BIG. First time would be a BIG ban. Like three months. Second should be a frozen.

What I meant was, I was told I broke the rules- but it doesn't say which, when, and how.

[stampsyne]

Sorry. I asked people what they thought SHOULD be a freezable offense. I think somebody talking politics should be banned from neoboards for awhile instead of frozen.

What is your opinion?

EDIT: They should most definately tell you WHY you were frozen. That has GOT to suck.

I think there should be a difference between INAPROPRIATE pictures and ADULT pictures.

Well, like you said, they did, only they don't give enough details. At this point, I'd even settle for them putting it in lawyer language (Paragraph E, subsection 6, Clause 9.)

Oh yea. Some are a person's sense of humor that might be offenseive to some people. You should not get frozen for that, just warned!

Oh yea. "EXACTLY what rules did I break?"

I can see that.

[stampsyne]

Do you have even an ikling or smidgion of an idea as of why they might think something is amiss? Anything odd at all?

[OmniIcyshelf]

Problem is, they'll hold a warning you got two weeks ago against you. Don't get me wrong, I take them seriously, but really, having an incident where I politely ask someone to capitalize the word "God" in order to make a case in his argument (You see, it would not work otherwise) jeld against me in the future would kind of suck. I can understand why they'd do it, but not why it would be considered so serious.

EDIT: I had been talking to a report-happy person, and I have to admit I became rather rude, but nothing beyond simply implying that I really didn't agree with her mentality on the reportation system. She never reported me, and we made amends. Other than that, I did nothing that I would consider remotely against the rules on the board. Yes, I did say that two news corporations were at two different ends of the political spectrum, but that's all I can think of (After all, I'm not exactly citing or discussing political events or people, just stating the well-known preferences of a private organization.)

I remember a thread here about that. I don't think they froze you for THAT. It would be .... a bit extreme

Yea, remove the subject matter, and it was just asking to use the proper grammar of thier origins (them being Christian would make your request proper grammer).

[OmniIcyshelf]

No, they didn't freeze me JUST for that, but they used that warning as one of the "several" that I received before "continuing to break the rules" and got frozen.

[stampsyne]

Maybe your 'amends' was just a means for the othr person to report you. Some people are ... into ... the reporting thing.
