Thank you LLaz . I think I am not the only one who left this medium for the sake of not getting ones account in danger, as we know....eventually when one gets too many warnings, LL can decide to ban you inworld as well. This forum, and its risks it obviously brings with it - due to some individuals who love to play God and feel the need to report just because they can - , is not worth jeopardising 'Caity' inworld. I have always enjoyed it here, the forum being a part of my overall SL experience, but the anonymous abuse in here: no thanks. This needed to emphasized. Are you seeing this Xiola?

LlazarusLlong Posted February 22, 2015 Author Share Posted February 22, 2015 As many may have realised (you too, probably, Caity) I am also unwilling to post in these forums with my main, so as not to jeopardise an extensive inventory of free system dinner jackets that don't fit and a negative Linden dollar balance (as a result of group land fee charges and a couple of divorces) as well as a massive database of no longer extant places he was banned from, for example, for pointing out to the owner of a medieval role playing sim that discussion of diet aids was OOC in an environment where almost everybody was close to starvation.

LlazarusLlong Posted February 22, 2015 Author Share Posted February 22, 2015 I heard they downgraded the OBR celebrations in sympathy with the Greeks having to drain Lake Ouzo as part of the austerity measures enforced on them by those germanic types who lent them the money to construct the Moussaka Damn in the first place. Next up, the Spaghetti Forest will have to be cut down as it does not contribute to the fight against global warming climate change, and Sicily will be booted out of Italy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Medhue Simoni Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Hi Caitlin!! This is the first I've even hear about all this, but I generally stay in the animation or mesh sections.

Derek Torvalar Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 So nothing has really changed regarding the moderation process concerning disciplinary action. Despite assurances by Xiola to meet with the team and go over this process. No warning letters, and arbitrarily banning members simply for the accrued number of complaints filed, rather than by actually looking at the content and context of the post RICed and making a judgement as to the validity of the claim. Is that the "best" they can do Xiola? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LlewLlwyd Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 MODERATION has two meanings, Derek. Protection of the hypersensitive and cognitively disadvantaged in the forums from those at the other extremes of online competence is obviously an unwritten subtext within the ToS. ***Regardless of the stupidity and ingenuousness demonstrated by those being protected*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, my polite requests for clarification concerning a removed post notification has gone unanswered by both the mod concerned and Xiola for well over 3 weeks. News this morning reached my attention concerning another ridiculous disciplinary action taken. So, yes, it means what you think it means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek Torvalar Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 It seems that removing posts to the appropriate Answers section has been too strenuous a task for the moderators and they have thrown in the towel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
