I have Zero of those too!😭 Aww poor you! My first warning wasn't actually a warning at all. Dakota had to delete one of my post because it included a quote from a rather nasty post by somebody else. Back then (I don't think it's the case anymore) a deleted post was automatically registered as a warning. The second one was very deliberate on my part though. Without going into details, LL had totally messed up a certain function vital for us mesh makers and didn't even bother to respond for months, let alone try to fix it. I have no regrets whatsoever and will be happy to do it again if a similar situation occurs in the future.

God knows I've tried. I do have two warnings and for the second one I laid it on so heavy they ended up deleting the entire thread, not just my post (I still stand by every word I wrote there btw but that's another story). Even that wasn't enough to win me a point. They go away after a while. I believe if you acrue too many too fast, then there's issues. My expanded list goes for quite a while. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right of course. And sometimes we have to accept that we can't say what needs to be said because allowing it would cause a bad precedence. 32 minutes ago, Sid Nagy said: But I don't think that software moderation is added value. At least not as long software isn't capable to understand what the forum members write. Well, I remember once I accidentally left out the "o" in the word "count" in a perfectly innocent post. That time I sure was glad the forums has some auto moderation in place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleMe Jewell Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 (edited) 39 minutes ago, Ceka Cianci said: Wait, you mean warnings aren't points? Warnings can be zero points or come with a point. Usually, if you get a point with the warning, then you will also be temporarily suspended from posting - for at least a day, sometimes longer. And some of those forum suspensions can also have an inworld suspension to go with it. Edited March 20, 2022 by LittleMe Jewell 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Persephone Emerald Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 (edited) I used to have some warnings that have since gone away. There was the thread about why can't we show pictures of female nipples, but we can of male nipples. Then I posted one of a model who was intersex or trans and one of a breast cancer survivor who had no nipples but a lovely floral tattoo. As I've said, I have a penchant for pushing the line of what's allowed sometimes. 😉 Edited March 20, 2022 by Persephone Emerald 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sid Nagy Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 (edited) Everybody has bad hair days every now and then. I think it is important when moderating to keep in mind what overall spirit a participant has. At least that would be what I would be doing if I were moderating a forum. Automated point counting can help in a really large forum, like this one in the past. But nowadays with the more limited numbers of active forum members?

And two suspensions, so I probably did have points at some time? Not sure how that works and I didn't pay attention. Sooooooo . . . I'm badder than both of you. 😝 But Lil?

But I do collect the discount points on the coffee packs I use in RL, does that count? And for the rest, I couldn't care less if I got suspensions or warning points. I know from myself that I generally pretty much behave on forums. But I ain't gonna walk on eggshells to please the LL minions. If one runs a forum site, one has to accept that not only fanclub members will post and that even fanclub members sometimes want to vent their annoyances about things. It should stay civil though.And if I really want to rant about something I use Cristiano's VVO forums. There is a very modest moderation 🎉 and that still feels as my home base.
