[quote=@LegendBegins] If people want to troll, they're going to find a way to do so; we've seen that from RPGO to the status bar. Beyond that, posting in good faith is a requirement of this thread, so troll responses, even if there's a point behind them, are removed. [/quote] Okay but that's not what was discussed. The point of this site is roleplay, and nobody in question right now ever hurt those fundamentals. People went to the status bar because it seems other methods have failed (largely on account of being deleted for no reason lol) and it reaches the largest amount of people without shitting up IC. Banning people for OOC/Meta critique on the other hand is actually very damaging to the fundamental of the site: roleplay. There is evidently a lot more trolling from the people with ban privileges than the people without. And pardon me but how does: [quote]This entire post is crap. I've never spoken to you before so I'm guessing the people banned were your friends and you're angry about it. Great reason to harass someone you've never spoken to. [/quote] or: [quote]You just had an opinion that criticized the moderators. Not what the purpose of this thread is for but I don't see any bans coming at you for this post, so... [/quote] or my personal favourite: [quote]Cool. Nice version of reality[/quote] qualify as good faith? To me it seems like most people were only following the tone set by this (and that's just the first page), and to remove posts for following the example set by moderation seems nonsensical at the very least.
