Ibn Khaldun 7729 Popular Post Share Posted April 23, 2023 Hello! Hope you all are doing well. I've been brought on as a moderator and wanted to make this thread in order to be transparent about my intended role. I applied as moderator a few weeks back in order to provide some help especially in moderating the forums, which proves easier since I work remotely, and to hopefully improve the overall out-of-character atmosphere that the forums serves as a platform for. If you have any comments or concerns, you are always welcome to ping me on Discord. Will I be able to please everyone, no. Will I be able to conduct myself in a level-headed and zen manner to reach a place of calm conclusion, yes. With regards to the premise of improving the overall out-of-character atmosphere mentioned above, I will come out of the gate making it clear that I intend to be stern yet fair. I will be moderating threads and posts that include the following: passive-aggressive remarks written as if one were reading your character's thoughts. So-and-so thought this guy was a dumbass is all too conveniently a vehicle where we make jabs at one another. targeted threats and otherwise out-of-character remarks hinting at blackmail. Exercise caution in letting video game events affect you personally. Anger and frustration, just as it may cause you to do something wrong and not excuse you from consequences, isn't an excuse on the forums. This set of rules are, as it stands, going to be enforced Rules. I understand the competitive nature of this particular video game all too well. That being said, we should all carry ourselves with the decency and tact that we would readily have if we were around the workplace, public space, or confines of a family home. 73 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more a reference to remarks that people make like "you better act a certain way or not say those things otherwise I'll (post x y z) (go after you and make your time on the server hard) (do this)" [being vague as not to go into too much detail] If you got more questions about it you can dm me! 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey gaius, genuinely appreciate your willingness to moderate Minecraft Twitter wars. That being said, I know what situation you’re referencing, and I don’t think it’s fair to refer to it as blackmail. My intention with that post was merely to point out a flaw/hypocrisy in an argument, and in no way did I threaten to leak any of the screenshots. Even if I wanted to, I couldn’t, as I don’t actually have access to any screenshots, but only know of their existence. Just wanted to clear that up, cheers! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is fair and I will leave that matter between you and the other party and the responsible moderator handling it. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morigung-oog 2360 Share Posted April 23, 2023 Morbibundity thought this suggestion was idiot, stupid and dumb. She turned to her cup of tea and wondered how much tea she could spill about her enemies' suspicious discord activities. (For legal reasons, this is a joke- pls don't ban me) ... But no, seriously. These would be welcome additions to our rules. I'm genuinely sick of players doing this shit. It's not healthy for them or beneficial to anyone around them; its poor roleplay and should definitely be punished. Good stuff. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
