this gets you an insta ban. duration is up to moderator.

[ELITE_TRAYUNZE]

"Who wants to be next?"

LOL, Sorry, I may be wrong, but that just sounds like someone on a powertrip...

Also, I highly doubt people come on revscene checking for new stickies everyday so maybe you should consider handing out points instead of banning 2 days after you put up a new rule...

[?NR]

power trip? nope. you are wrong. it's an extraordinary measure when people do not heed warnings from the past.


points mean nothing to most members they consider it street credit or whatever.

thank you for your suggestion, but no points will be given. Just instant bans. The only variable would be the duration of the ban, permanent, or days. Up to each individual moderators discretion.

[ELITE_TRAYUNZE]

I agree points mean nothing, but I don't really see how bans mean much either. If one really wanted to come on the site that bad, they can simply have 2 accounts...

[?NR]

that maybe the case in regards to dupe accounts. If they do we'll just continually ban or seek out ips to ban until they get the message. We at the moderation level may not be able to get to it in time, we all have our lives to tend to, but each moderator has 2 eyes and a watch list. Only a matter of time.

some people learn on the second time, or third, or never. We just want to get the point across : RS free to use but not to abuse, whether it be spam or pointless usage. Administration doesn't like it, abide by our wishes for a better site or click the log out button.

this is going off topic. If there are any other concerns or comments, feel free to post a thread in member support.

thank you.

[ELITE_TRAYUNZE]

Okay, well this is a repost, so you might want to lock it....

[?NR]

I will leave it open for the time being.

may be a repost to you, however it may not be for everyone else. Goes both ways.

whoever didn't see it before, here it is.

whoever saw it before, we know it's a repost please move on,no need to state the obvious numerous times. Or feel free to pass the experience on.

ps: I for one did not see this before. So they took and lambo and bastardized it to look like ...what is it supposed to be? ... mustang?

[Raid3n]

no, i think they turned a mustang into a MR V10 monstrosity

[?NR]

^ ah. lego car.

[CanadaGoose]

This is the key point:

If it's a REPOST AND YOU'VE SEEN IT BEFORE, THERE IS NO NEED TO STATE THE OBVIOUS, UNLESS you're the first one to point it out in a mature way, just as a fyi to the original poster.

This way everyone else who hasn't seen it can come in and take a look without putting up with 50 spammed repost replies.

Like !NiteRaven said, it goes both ways, because what may be a repost to you, might not have been seen by everyone else.

Read this and understand it :)

[moomooCow]

The thing is, JiggaZed didn't try to instigate a "repost train", he finished it all up within his own post albeit with a little extra creativity..

If anything, g_i_g_g_i_t_y ( not personal <3!! ) went and wasted bandwidth posting "repost" a second time.

I see that E N D L E S S just stated that you have to point it out in a mature way but really, what's the big deal as long as everyone can clearly see that it says REPOST?

And seriously, comments like "Who wants to be next?" is detrimental to the atmosphere of the forum, especially under the circumstances.

The "law" was passed a couple of days ago, it's not as if people tested your (mods) patience on purpose, cut him some slack? I, for one, had no idea this chain posting was SO serious until I saw the instaban sticky...and even then, I misinterpreted it to be applicable only to people who post a single letter or a single sentence with a letter capitalized.

Anyways, I'm just voicing my opinion. Hear me out if you want to, after all, I'm just a petty member.

read my sticky again. All you mentioned, strangely sounds like the sticky I posted of what not to do. He got baited by another member to do as such, not my fault that he chose to do so against that rule.

I will again re-iterate :

NO

R
E
P
O
S
T

type of posts, if it is a repost, fine. Say it once, then go. Don't jump on the wagon and say it again. I'd like to believe that RS members are more capable of posting single word posts. (everytime someone posts "repost" it bumps the thread up instead of it dying a natural death.. if it's a repost don't bump it unless there is something else other than posting "repost" to contribute to it)







Anyways, I'm just voicing my opinion. Hear me out if you want to, after all, I'm just a petty member.

thank you for your opinion, and I don't think of anyone here as a petty member (except spammers or people that puts nothing useful back into RS). It has to start somewhere. He's not perma-banned. 9 more days and his ban will be automatically lifted. (i reversed it from a perma-ban fyi.)

as for being detrimental to the atmosphere of current RS, what makes you believe that RS is better off now? RS is coming up on it's 10th year anniversary, and frankly the atmosphere that began with RS, that made RS, is a mere shadow at the moment.

RS will not turn into 4chan. These rules are there to prevent that, like it or not.

Me as well did not know that any repost unless it was done in a mature way would be an "instaban"

I thought that only posts like
R
E
P
O
S
T

would be an instaban.

I would find fair that there should be a grace period, like the new cell phone law, where people get warnings for the first bit for it. Realistically speaking, not everyone reads the new stickies.

Just my food for thought.

[GabAlmighty]

Wow, that's pretty weak. First I get a warning for something that I believe was completely inferior to what I have seen others do on here and now I see this? He made no detrimental comment towards the OP, and I for one lol'd at it and if I was the OP (which I have been in his shoes numerous times) I honestly would've probably lol'd and facepalmed myself...

Guys need to open up a bit..

[fishing666]

the mustang is dead..not even a lambo can save it

[?NR]

there was a grace period for many many many many months if not years already. People have received points in the past yet it still happens to this day. This is not a new rule. Search past threads. Since there was no progress with to discourage this, it has been escalated to insta bans.

no grace period is needed as it is not a new issue.

fyi: it is also up to the individual moderator that spots it. Say If you registered on Feb 2010 such as yourself, and wouldn't have known because A) you don't see stickies on top or chose to ignore it B) not here long enough to know this has been a problem beforehand, the moderator will indeed see that and grant you a reprieve.

no point arguing it. this is how it is and will be, and it won't be a bother if rules are just followed.

[GabAlmighty]

I'm not arguing. I'm looking for understanding.

What's wrong with posting:
R
E
P
O
S

as oppose to me just going
Review have.... etc etc etc.

I just do not see how it's a negative thing in any way. No different than saying "search noob".

You don't need to get all high and mighty in your chair, just need to explain it. (Sorry i'm assuming you didn't mean to come off as that but it sort of is).

Well, I think it's pretty clear that even you can't find a legit reason to have banned him.

He did get his point across which was to say it was a repost and he did this without wasting bandwidth.

GabAlmighty clearly said that he understands that starting the chain wastes bandwidth which is why it would result in a ban. However, he was asking why it's wrong to do what jiggazed did which was say REPOST all in one post.

You reply to gab by saying:

R <- 1 member/1 post
E <- 1 member/1 post
P <- 1 member/1 post
O <- 1 member/1 post
S <- 1 member/1 post
T <- 1 member/1 post

which clearly wasn't what happened in this case.


I'd recommend you reconsider the ban you have laid on jiggazed. It is obvious that nobody agrees with the reasoning behind the ban and it's obvious that you realize there was nothing detrimental about his post. It's okay, you made a mistake by banning him. Just live up to it and unban him. No big deal.

we can't be everywhere, all the time.

if you see something that you think deserves points/ban/what-have-you and nothing has been done, don't just bitch about it. report it. your keyboard seems to work just fine.

when you report a post, it sends an email to that forums mod team letting them know that you reported that post and what the reason was.
then when someone is online it will be reviewed and appropriate action will be taken.

this is a community, we all have to work together to keep it clean.

think of this as volunteering for a neighborhood cleanup crew.
if everyone pitches in, it will be more enjoyable for everybody as a whole.

[youngq]

blasphemy

[GabAlmighty]

Sorry if i'm coming across as bitching, not trying to.

As for the "can't be everywhere" statement; fair enough. But when i see a mod posting in said thread I assume he has read the thread. I understand that every mod is going to have their own personal opinion on stuff but a mutual consensus would be nice.

And what are these points you guys are talking about?

edit: And the only things I would report would be spam or if someone was defamming someone else for no good reason. Beyond that I don't think one needs a "mother" figure following you around holding your hand and telling you what to do.

[twitchyzero]

no offense to the OP
but when ever you're posting something to share, LOOK AT THE DATE.

if it's more than a week old, chances are it's already been posted. and a quick keyword search is easy to do.

Powertripping or not, the whole respost train is getting really fucking stupid, anyone who comes up with the "does ____ have turbo?" joke should also be instant-banned.

[Drift_Monkey]

Poor guy.... He probably hates the person who banned him now.

If I was a MOD, I'd just warn him not to do it again. After all, he is a newbie and its not like he was being offensive to anyone.

If the rules are that strict, I don't see how members can enjoy posting on RS anymore.

I'm not saying don't implement any rules on RS, but sometimes there should be exceptions. Just take a step back and look at the situation. If it was serious & offensive, then ban the guy, if he was wasting bandwidth for the first time, just give points & warnings and hope that he'll learn. If a second offensive occurs, then go ahead and ban.

I know every MOD deals with this situation differently, but I'm sure some or most of you will agree with me too.

in one post/in multiple posts = annoying and also instigating for others to follow. When you see this in the first instance, in your mind you already are thinking about the repost train. This is to stop it from even happening.


"repost" in one post = normal

"repost" in one post, but duplicated in another post or 2 or 3 = not necessary.

As for JiggaZed, doubt he's new if he knows about vertical postings. Registration date may have been recent, but doesn't mean he's not a veteran on the internet, yes, the internet. Other websites may allow this, but not RS.

people can still enjoy posting if simple rules are met as it won't concern them.

edit : upon looking at the member's history and posts, (yes I was reviewing whether or not to lift the ban earlier) I came a few threads from the B/S seeing as he's more active there http://www.revscene.net/forums/search.php?searchid=1338809.

How are these quality posts? All I see is a couple guys using RS Buy and Sell, doing vertical postings while bumping (wanna be creative go do a painting, this is annoying). Now I understand why Elite Trayunze is here, and what's this argument about whether what difference it be one post or one letter per post.

so in the end, JiggaZed's ban will not be lifted after this consideration, it will expire in due time naturally.

"repost" in one post = normal

Okay... so now you're saying that you banned him because seeing it written out vertically in a single post is "annoying" and "reminds you of a repost train" while in fact being neither of those things?

I mean I agree that having 1 letter/post spell it out vertically is a "waste of bandwidth" and pointless, but seriously? Having him type out REPOST in one single post vertically is getting him banned just because it annoys you? It doesn't waste anymore bandwidth than "REPOST" horizontally, and doesn't "instigate for others to join in" because the REPOST train has already ended. And on top of ALL of that, he was the FIRST person to point out that this was a repost. It had not been mentioned before his post was posted.

You have NO logical reasoning behind why this guy was banned. You're coming up with shitty ideas out of your ass to stick up for yourself and it's not working. Every single person that's posted in this thread agrees that you were wrong.

[ELITE_TRAYUNZE]

I think this is basically a warning to everybody.

Do not speak your mind. In fact, you might as well not say anything at all because it is quite possible that it might annoy !NiteRaven which will result in you getting banned.

Hooray, RS has quality control/assurance. Who cares if he's banned? It's not like he can't view the forums without logging in (as in old RS), he just can't post. Boo Hoo :cry:

Many of the daily posts in VOT/VAC are just the same .gifs/.jpegs or replies anyways.

I don't really give to shit's that he himself is banned, it's the reason he was banned and that it's a dumb reason compared to other things which go on here.

[EX-R]

You guys are acting like that guy complaining about getting a ticket on the skytrain assuming that winning a hockey game acts as a free ticket.
Rules are rules. they've been placed so that stupid shit like this doesn't get out of hand.

Its plain and simple:
-Don't get crafty and creative trying to say repost
-Politely inform the op that it is a repost
-If someone mention that it is a repost, don't say it again
-Just let the thread die

Sometimes, someone has to be the scapegoat in order to send the message across to the community. And obviously, being lenient didn't work before when this issue first arose on revscene because we're talking about it now.
Also as stated before, just because you've seen it, it doesn't mean everyone else have. Keep in mind that some members here don't venture out on to other forums like others.

Actually, that situation is very different.

The train is a service that we are given and that we are supposed to pay for. When you don't pay, you are stealing. I don't think I have to give you an explanation of why stealing is wrong, do I?

On the other hand, this situation involves somebody making ONE post vertically (not starting a train, which would therefore waste bandwidth). There is no harm done.

Oh wait, nevermind, there is harm done. The vertical post reminds !NiteRaven of a train. That's not good. This means ban.

Dont speak your mind? If the word "repost" is the only thing on your mind, then you must be one dumb bitch.

I'm sure there's a lot more things than the word "REPOST" being typed out vertically that annoy !NiteRaven.....

and just like the RCMP, everyone loves to give them shit, but when something positive happens, everyone just expects it.

RCMP is BC citizens' role model :D

thats just how it is. you can use that same exact line "gotta love ______________" on just about every webforum... love it or hate it, the REPOST shit is annoying, and ppl are just chiming in their 2 cents because they love trolling...

lets face it, you cant in the real life.

the brutual truth, the REPOST thing is fucking annoying. if u got nothing good to add, why post?

you should see the ppl that crumble when their accounts are banned, and their beloved post counts are gone. its heart breaking, yet creepy that such meaningless things surround their lives.

how different are they from hyde's delusions of elevating ones self based on their post count or username...

[ELITE_TRAYUNZE]

normally in a democracy yes.

but i really dont need to have a legit reason. ive gained enough koodoos points over the years to not give 2 shits anymore. i gain nothing by running this site, take endless abuse, and just have to laugh at ppl crying and whining over the lamest things.

am i power tripping, yeah, am i allowed to? HELL YEAH

Well that's pretty cool.

You guys are acting like that guy complaining about getting a ticket on the skytrain assuming that winning a hockey game acts as a free ticket.
Rules are rules. they've been placed so that stupid shit like this doesn't get out of hand.

Its plain and simple:
-Don't get crafty and creative trying to say repost
-Politely inform the op that it is a repost
-If someone mention that it is a repost, don't say it again
-Just let the thread die

Sometimes, someone has to be the scapegoat in order to send the message across to the community. And obviously, being lenient didn't work before when this issue first arose on revscene because we're talking about it now.
Also as stated before, just because you've seen it, it doesn't mean everyone else have. Keep in mind that some members here don't venture out on to other forums like others.



Dont speak your mind? If the word "repost" is the only thing on your mind, then you must be one dumb bitch.

finally, someone that actually understood my intentions.

[?NR]

About time this is being enforced again. There was a point where the second post in every thread was "Repost". If it is, why do people need to point it out?

How about making it simple, no "Repost" in any way shape or form?

thought about that, but ofcourse that would be called power tripping and nazi.

so I left it open with a comprimise, and up to each individual moderator. Fair to let one person point out it's a repost, beyond that it is just pointless.

Actually, that situation is very different.

The train is a service that we are given and that we are supposed to pay for. When you don't pay, you are stealing. I don't think I have to give you an explanation of why stealing is wrong, do I?

On the other hand, this situation involves somebody making ONE post vertically (not starting a train, which would therefore waste bandwidth). There is no harm done.

Oh wait, nevermind, there is harm done. The vertical post reminds !NiteRaven of a train. That's not good. This means ban.



I'm sure there's a lot more things than the word "REPOST" being typed out vertically that annoy !NiteRaven.....

let me rephrase that for you

RS is a service that we are given and where we are suppose to follow the forum rules. when you dont follow, you are being problematic. I dont think i have to give you an explanation of why being problematic is wrong, do I?

OR

RS is a service that we are given and where we dont have to pay for. SO QUIT BITCHING

Let me explain something to you. Disobedience of rules is only problematic when there is a legit reasoning as to why the rule has been placed.

The fact that it annoys !NiteRaven doesn't sound like a legit enough reason to me, or several other members that have posted in this thread...

[?NR]

yup. you got it finally


I'm sure there's a lot more things than the word "REPOST" being typed out vertically that annoy !NiteRaven.....

you are right about that too, from "does it have a turbo", which has outlived it's novelty, to duplicate accounts etc.. but those are other issues inherent with RS which are being looked at for solutions, if any





it is very simple concept : we manage it the site to what we see fit. If you do not agree, that's unfortunate. Just how it is, can't make everyone happy. Either move on, log out, whichever...

the controls are over here in mod and admin accounts, not where you are at. We have a responsibility with these access to maintain RS as best as possible. Some of the rules are "wide-brush" rules, as this one is, because the subject at hand has too many circumstances. Preventive is the better route, and how to deter? that's what the rule is about. There is only but one exemption from that rule, which is the first one to point out, politely, if possible, that it is a repost.

pretty straight forward.

Yeah, well, I don't like you anymore :(

[EX-R]

So obviously you haven't been on rs long enough to know that this stupid repost shit is getting really old and its annoying most of the old members. I guess we`re just at that point now that the mod`s tolerance for this issue has gone way beyond of caring. The fact is, JiggaZed tried to do what has been announced not to be done and tried to get away with it by being creative. It doesnt matter whether he did it or tried to do it, its all the same shit. They`re worthless posts that dont need to be seen. and as !niteraven said, keep it simple and polite if its a repost.

[GabAlmighty]

You do guys do bring up a valid point about this being a sort of "priviledge" and I guess to that extent you are correct in the fact that you can do anything to want.

One thing I do like about this forum over the other one I frequent alot, swear words aren't blanked out.

normally in a democracy yes.

I like how you conduct business.


And in all honestly, I don't really care to argue anymore. I got my point across, I think, and i'm happy.

But I will bump this thread if I don't get banned for vertically writing out repost hahah

[?NR]

Yeah, well, I don't like you anymore :(

I'm sorry you feel that way, but you are welcomed to your opinion and your entitlement. If everyone got along, there wouldn't be wars.

with that said, I believe the rule has been explained many times now. Please adhere to them when posting. That is all we ask for providing a free service.

this thread will now be closed.

[CanadaGoose]

Since I haven't done it yet: I HEART THE DOOD FROM AMERICAS NEXT TOP MODEL WITH THE SILVER HAIR, OMGG OMGGG HE'S SOO HAWWT!!! *DROOL*
Oh shieeeeet.

And I mostly agree with Elite on this one more or less.


Wow that was a brave and unexpected move! To be honest I thought you were going to spam another REPOST train by posting R... :D
