Title: Something I've noticed
Hiei - May 28, 2006 05:02 AM (GMT)
Not complaining about my warning, it was totally justified, but why is it that people only get warned for flame bait if you direct it at a friend, or associate of a mod? I mean, there is a decent ammount of flame bait on this board, but action only seems to be taken if it happens to a popular member, or whatever. It's corrupt staff. :[
I mean, the staff's primary responsibility on FEW is running it fairly. Friendships come behind responsiblity while on FEW, or they should.

It happens on most forums. Older "elite" members tend to have more of a backing then newer members, or even unpopular ones.
Hiei - May 28, 2006 03:49 PM (GMT)
I know it happens a lot, but the fact is, it shouldn't. :/ That's why I'm bringing it up.

1.) I'm too lazy to generally go around warning everyone who slightly flamebaits. And when I do, people like Kio start bitching at me.
2.) I only usually warn the major stuff, which happens to be against the older members. Sorry about this coincidencidental situation.

There's decent amounts of hypocrisy too.
I'm beginning to think Hiei was tame >_>

Which duo? I have forgotten.
Hiei, I've never seen the first topic, and you were being an absoulute dick in the other. As I read the first, do you want a warning? You started it.
Hiei - May 28, 2006 07:16 PM (GMT)
I already got a warning for it. XD
Reyde needs a warning though since he flamed me.
SpiralStatic - May 28, 2006 07:25 PM (GMT)
Flame? Nope. I said what the fuck. That's not flaming. I didn't say "FUCK YOU HIEI YOU R A FAGZORZ!" did I? You could easily be banned or suspended for the amount of trolling you do, so don't complain when you finally get warned.

In which?
SpiralStatic - May 28, 2006 08:03 PM (GMT)
Read it strikey, I didn't flame him. I asked a question. Hiei definitely doesn't know the definition of "flamebait/flaming"... It's in Puff's Leaving/Returning topic.

Perhaps we need another G-Mod. I think the reason warnings only involve older members is because they are the only ones who inform a mod. Perhaps we need another mod to search out this stuff.
Missy_Roxx_Meh_Soxx - May 28, 2006 09:15 PM (GMT)
Seems like a good idea. But if another G-Mod is appointed, it would have to be someone who is on at least 2-3 times a week, and knows FEW well.

You didn't do anything worthy of a warning. Hiei's looking for a flame.

The Hiei/Aien Duo.
We really kicked ass.
Valter - May 28, 2006 11:07 PM (GMT)
O.K, I've been looking at all these posts and I have to say something. CHILL GUYS. Come on, your all at each others necks and flaming, making fun of people, and just being a nuisence to the FEWers who want to have fun. I don't know or care about if you had a bad day, but don't let it out on the innocent computer fiends like me! Jesus Christ, stop it.
That means you:
AL-X
Aien
Darkhero
Legault
SHUT UP!!!!!!!
KuraiKitsune - May 28, 2006 11:14 PM (GMT)
That's what RI is for, but flame bait is indeed running amok on this forum. We need to solve this problem... but keep 'casualties' to a minimum when concerning harmless threads in RI. When meant earnestly, however, this is a matter that simply cannot be ignored (for the wellbeing of the board, morale of the members, and the sanity of the forum itself).
I apologize, Valter, but I must side with Aien and the others on this matter. We have to crack down on malicious flamers; it'll make the board a better place. :3

I'm talking about the staff, not the flamebaiters.
I ignore them.

*whistles in the corner*
:P but seriously, I'd rather some people were getting caught, regardless of who they offended, than none at all. another mod would probably help, as would a formal reporting system, such as PMing a mod with a link and a quick statement as to how they think they were flamed/flamebaited/etc.
Dragon_Tam3r - May 29, 2006 08:12 AM (GMT)
I find it funny how obvious stuff like this is when it happens to a person, and when the same thing happens for the same person's gain, they totally ignore it or don't notice it, funneh stuff bishes :)
Hiei - May 29, 2006 03:38 PM (GMT)
No one has gotten warned for flaming me o_O

If you can show me somewhere where someone has truly flamed you, I'll warn them.

Bite me, that's All I gotta say on that subject. What you said was hidden flame-bait as I call it, and I couldn't care less what you have to say about it.
Besides, it's not like you don't flame anyways.
LoZfan03 - May 31, 2006 11:52 PM (GMT)
I'd say AL-X got quite what he deserved. hmm, someone seems pissed off...I know, let's prod him!!! brilliant!!!
*walks away shaking head in disgust*

I don't honestly don't think flaming/flamebaiting is a problem on this board.
It's such a small community, I know nearly every active member by name, and know most of your online personalities. Therefore I can easily tell when someone is saying something justified, or if they've crossed the line.
Plus, you've shown like 4 counts of flame/flamebaiting, and in most of them it is debatable as to whether they are/aren't. If FEW gets 4 counts of flames every two weeks.. I'd say that's pretty damn good.

*raises hand*
I'd be glad to search and destroy flamers/trollers. I'd be pretty good at it, too. Not to mention the fact that you still owe me my G Mod powers back since AL-X kept on taking them away in like...December. :angry:
Hiei - June 3, 2006 02:47 AM (GMT)
...
I'd say hell no.
There are plenty of mods. Demote the innactive admins, or something. .____.
The staff has 9 people who can warn. That should be PLENTY if they did their job.
Ronian - June 3, 2006 05:42 AM (GMT)
I said it in a different spot, but we need it again.
Please be calm. There's no need for as much swearing and loaded language as we've been throwing about. Please, let's just relax... maybe those of us who are so upset could... i don't know, wait an hour or two, or a day or two before posting again. Y'know, just sit down and count to five... internet-wise.
I just hate seeing people who usually get along rip each other up.

*also raises hand*
I've been here for over a year. I'm on FEW at least every day. I think some more mods and admins are needed.
