EVE General Discussion

I would like to add at this time that ISD still have a long way to go. If you're going to edit a persons post for alleged personal attacks, you should probably edit the posts by other people that also have the exact same alleged personal attacks.

Picking on one person is mean & not very nice.

Thanks ISD DB (I'm sorry, your name is just a nightmare to try and spell).

He will continue, im sure

Hello there, pardon my blushes.

First of all I'd like to thank Pipa and Corina and offer my apologies to the OP of the thread involved.

Your understanding is a great help, knowing that I can make an honest mistake and not have it be the end of my time at the ISD is a great comfort. In my haste to do good, I ended up doing the wrong thing, thankfully I am part of a great team of people who look out for one another as well as everyone who uses these forums.The learning curve for being an ISD member is quite steep, at least in the beginning, so to know that I have the support of my co-workers as well as the forum users, helps to level off that curve to a manageable level.

Being a part of the EVE community in the way I am now has been a dream of mine for a very long time, and my personal goal is to help everyone involved, both players and staff alike, make these forums a place where everyone can express their views, dreams and hopes. In my rush to achieve this I made a mistake, one which I intend to learn from as best I can. In future I will do my best to make sure something like this doesn't happen again


PS. Corina, thanks for the comment about my funnies, that cheered me up, and Pipa, herding cats is a cruel task to give someone, but It's probably easier than herding angry EVE players (I should know, I've been one)

And to Dorrim, thanks for the help

Kind of like the rest of EVE



Well, you did volunteer for it, so it kind of makes it a poor way to punish you, huh.

Anyway, keep up the good work.

on a long thread, I want to know if my posts got caught in the sweep. I'm not a nice poster, but I don't do personal attacks and trolling, as a art, is subject to interpretation (in fact, by the EVE-O rules, a post can be on-topic, constructive, and still trolling if you get the tone and wording just right).

Can we get a notification for edits and post deletions (especially edits)? I know we asked for this earlier in this thread, but I don't think we got an answer.

1) I understand that rule, and the rationale behind it, but this thread has been ignoring that rule for a bit with plenty of ISD interaction giving the impression that this thread's tacitly exempt.

2) We don't trust the black hole that is the petition system. IMHO, Public Commentary is the best way to achieve improvement. (In the past, CCP has shown that Public Commentary has been the only way to get results.)

3) The posts you left un-culled (i.e. all of the positive response to specific good moderation actions) are interesting.

4) In any discussion, having examples is the only way to not sound like a wavering ninny.
"I feel that some threads are being locked without needing to be, but I can't say which, and I can't discuss why they might have been locked, nor how they might be better treated in the future" does not make for high minded discussion.

They are trying to improve the forums through trust. We don't need examples because we TRUST you. When you said ISD moderation is bad, they trust you and believe so.

See there is no reason for examples.

I almost like their moderation, since they only lock threads, instead of banning people. I propably would have been banned in WOW for the stuff I have said in here. But here I only faced total eraser for it. My mind is turning more into total recall with every passing ISD punishment.

But in a way your not banned. You are letting them know who you are. The same poster who was banned. But they let you keep posting anyhow.

That is the total eraser part. Here you are still talking, but nothing from your past identity is present or can be found.

p.s. Have they forced you to confess your sins to CCP navigator yet, for you to get unbanned?

Also, nobody in here has been talking about anyone getting banned. We were discussing some examples of the ISD's moderation not quite measuring up, and how they could improve.
