Der Banz Hammer

[TopHatTim]

Ok, does anyone else notice the thundering strike of the ban/probation hammer lately?
is it just me or are they really crackin down on us.
but in a way i guess they really should be setting us in line.
we've been going too far with some of the comments on our topic posts.

Do please discuss and share your opinion on Ze Crackdown of Der Banz Hammer.





also im terrible at german.

I've not really noticed it to be honest. I haven't angered the moderators and hopefully never will.

 

[iJosh]

I like it, to be honest.

Oooh...kinky.

 

[insectoid]

Honestly, I haven't really noticed!

Just post responsibly and within the Guidelines. Don't fear, the mods aren't here to hurt us.

 

[Internet Kraken]

The mods are just as inconsistent with their bans and probations as ever.

I haven't noticed a difference.

 

[TopHatTim]

Pretty sure "banz" is not a word in German.

it just sounded good.

 

[Bagaloo]

I've noticed a few more probations as of late, but I trust they were with good reason.
Besides, hopefully it will lead to a better Escapist?

 

[skcseth]

I've noticed.
It seems every thread lately has had at least to posters on probation. Gotta appreciate the tough love though.

Are you kidding me?
I've seen plenty of trolls go un-banned recently.

It seems more like they're lightening up rather than cracking down.

ahh yes i figured this would stumble upon me.
have you noticed the trolls are getting the pass and the older posters and good guys starting to get the lean against them?
i was on probation for saying fuck. thats it. i dont cuase trouble or anything im a regular poster.
but theres been whole topics with the words "fucking" and what not in the titles and in the questions and posts. yet none of them get cracked down?
i understand that alot of them are new and desearve a chance.
but 1 chance only should be it.

 

[Simalacrum]

no, its just an increse of trolls on the Escapist I'm afraid.

I used to think like you.

Then they came.

I'll always carry the scars.

Sure, they can be Harsh. But so can everyone. From what I've seen around here, the mods definitely do more good than harm.

Was trying to go for a bit of humor, but apparently failed spectacularly.

Either that, or it woulda been mildly humorous if tone of voice had entered into the equation.

Oh, sorry about that. Its happened to me a bit, so I should know better. I guess jokes just don't go so well over the net. Again, sorry

You should have seen this place when I first joined, rules were enforced more and it was a happier time.

 

[AdjectiveAnimal]

I think we have it too easy right now. If you think this is bad you should have seen it back when I was started lurking.

It was different, certainly. The moderation staff has certainly moved more towards control rather than opposition of unpleasant factions, and it's not proved irksome yet. We have a lot of traffic nowdays, it's certainly harder for them to keep a lid on everything.

Read the stickies about the report button, I think that the emergence of those threads has prompted more banhammer action, but has been brought about by a more self-regulating populace.

Thank you, wilson sir! May I have another!
