Posts removed Part 2 | Started by: SOOOOOOOOOOOO on Mar 09, '20 05:49 |
I need far more clarification why posts are removed when in fact we lived in an era where we were given a heads up as to why a post was removed. Iris, felt a strong need to speak up. I got a hunch Iris is ignoring history or is not as old as history when it concerns the removal of posts. My guess is the latter. |

You seem to have developed a hard-on for me for some reason. So here, I'll take the bait. Squishy made it clear in the "Disappearing Posts" thread as to why posters are not alerted or given a reason as to why their posts are removed. Since you, again, have decided to ignore that I will share it here for you.
How many times are you going to ask the same thing? The answer isn't going to change just because you don't like it. |

Absolutely perfect reply, Iris. Much appreciated. The post she has quoted is 1000% accurate. Most of what I tend to do is sweep the streets tbh and I have at times given the user a reason in the hopes that they won't repeat the error - sadly 99% of the time the user comes back to me with arguments and paranoia, half the time they want to complain that x,y and z didn't get the same treatment they got, or that their posts weren't OOC. Arguing isn't going to change anything. People seem to think that we just delete things for the sake of it, we check it, we double check it, then we remove it. Also, the fact people seem to ignore is that users report the posts to us, we dont go hunting for it. So not only are we removing it because it wasn't valid for where it was, it was seen as invalid by other users and reported to us and then dealt with. |

I actually wasn't aware that the "report post" feature was the main motivator for threads being removed until Squishy mentioned that recently. Not entirely sure what I assumed happened before, but it was news to me. Anyway, the reason for my reply is that whilst I don't think any staff should be subjected to tedious arguments with users about the validity of their posts, sometimes it is confusing as to why some replies are removed. Could it be possible to get a personals notification as to the overall reason, i.e. OOC, wrong forum, homophobic whatever whatever or even just notification that it has been flagged by a user? Perhaps with an option to amend it? This may reduce the amount of time spent having to actually remove things/argue if the user could rectify the rule-breaking element themselves. |

I like the idea of a notification when reported; though could be open to abuse from people then maliciously reporting to annoy users. Guess that could be a bridge to cross later. Grin, 6th of your name, feel free to create a suggestion on it in the appropriate forum. |

Again, I assure you Iris I do not have a hard on as you implied. Perhaps you are looking in the mirror? At any rate, like I stated there was an era when players were notified. Ok they took that out the equation with no heads up. Moving on. It's bullshit in my strong opinion and experience when a thread is pulled. And I am not alone on this here. Often it has been brought up volunteers should not be playing too. There are pros and cons. Another player ran into a con. Sent me a copy of their RP that was pulled. I read and re-read. I immediately came to the conclusion someone was butt sore. Being opened minded, I read again, I spotted there was a possible "weak" reason why it was pulled, so I re-wrote the RP. Once again, it was pulled. The first poster well known on these shores is an excellent role player. I deliberately posted the re-write which was perfect, while the same individual was active that pulled the first post. Something has to change here. Maybe Grins will help, but I got reservations. |

Just to clarify SOOOOOOOOOOOO I'm not a member of the volunteer team. I'm just a person who plays MafiaReturns and supports those that help run the game. If you "think" I'm Telkin you are very wrong. |

The entitlement is strong with this one. I'm sure if you had questions about why a thread was removed you could just ask Helpdesk and they would be happy to provide the reason just as I'm sure whatever reason your |

*It was questioned by another and myself. And we were ignored. I define it as being ignored, when there is no response. |
