Clarification of rules and penalizations
(03 Aug 12, 04:24PM)1Cap Wrote: The moderators should only apply the rules. When the case is "common sense" things change. Then the moderators apply "common sense" of themselves. So these distortions occur.

Actually mods do only apply the rules and how much warning points you get is actually predefined on some rules as it is. However where common sense comes in is say if you are a repeat offender at breaking rules or have been disrespecting players for months and getting away with small warnings that never add up to a ban.

Quote:My suggestion is that the participants of the forum who feel misrepresented, can open a topic for analysis of the situation by other participants.

If you want to show the community how you specifically you messed up on this forum and would like to display that then yes but really if you ever have a problem with a moderator, contact a different moderator or forum admin for a better evaluation; were not all the same but close and fair enough that your situation may or may not change).

Quote:Only one member of each clan can vote on these topics. The moderators do not vote. Participants can vote without a clan, but must have more than one year of participation in the forum.

Moderation of the moderators.

If you make this complicated vote system, then moderators would be unable to do anything productive; it would take forever to get someone banned if he had his little friends back him up and vote to revoke the warning or whatever. If you moderate the moderators, then there is no point in moderation at all and things would turn out like the U.S. government where people have power but do nothing.
