Petition to have the right to post about players in our community

[Mamba]

No, no and no.

I made a thread a while ago about a "bad player" and told my story of a guy who was rude to me (without names).
I would never, in MILLION YEARS, give out his name though - well not on forums at least.

There is always two sides to a story and sometimes people who get mentioned in posts like that won't even know about the post to go defend themselves.

Also, I do think that sometimes even the virtual bullies just need a friend to make them stop being idiots - flaming them on forums wont actually make any difference, well it could actually make things worse.

The drama llama, Don't ride it.

This sums it up why this is a bad idea and posts should be deleted.

But regarding report to GM, lols dont make me laugh so hard. GM Auto Response aka Deal with it.

Some people are actually flamers and trolls and post things maliciously for thing or another, but posting legitimate SS and explaining, and having that same sentiment reaffirmed by many people on your server at 2-5 A.M. should attest to a persons character, and if I had a bad reputation, I would do what I could to fix it. I hold myself to the same standards I hold others. This isn't a case of an internet-bully. This is a person who wants to get what he wants, and if it doesn't go well. Well... the word vomit and blood-eyes come out. I understand all your points, and I really agree with "flaming is bad" but, internet, let me remind you. Flaming =/= telling the truth. Some people pretend they're telling the truth, and others just act contrary anyways, because they can, or in a moment judgement lapse. This is none of the above.

Personal experience aside. I still want a link to a REAL forum for my server, because these official forums are not it. This is a place to say whatever you want to whomever about whatever as long as SE can't be held liable for it. Atleast that's how most people treat it, unfortunately.

I want a real forum, with moderators.

imagine someone who doesn't like you and post some freely invented accusations.
that person has 10 friends who write supporting posts that promote that character assassination of yours.
that's why it's not allowed in the forums and neither IRL.

warn your friends and your LS if you think you have to, but you are not a lawyer in the duty to save your server from evil.
you want a virtual pillory? we don't.

[KumaAkuma]

Focus on the good, let go of the bad. Make threads about people you like.

[Blitz0309]

Hate to say it. But i'm against this. All this would do is create drama on a forum, and i can understand why SE wouldn't want it on their site.

If you want to post about a person in particular do it on a shell forum. If someone is an ass online (which most people are), then just tell your friends. /blacklist them (if that exists... i haven't even managed to talk to anyone in game yet lol).

You can't expect a public forum for a company to become a shame list, anything posted is here say, even if you post screen caps those can be modified pretty easily... but you get the idea. You met someone on the internet who is acting like an immature child. This happens.. hell, i was playing dota 2 with a real life friend of mine for over a decade and he is "no longer my friend" because i wouldn't defend the fact he was getting called on playing horribly by the rest of my team. Still kinda in shock about that... but i guess that is what online gaming does to people. It turns them all into children the second they don't get what they want.

People make their own reputations. They don't need anyone else's help.

[Roaran]

Posting about individual people, and their 'supposed' reputations is a VERY bad idea. You may realize that not everyone is entirely honest, and all this type of activity does is lead to flame wars.

Because this is a uniquely server issue, you are far better off just blacklisting the person, and telling the people you know to avoid or be catious of that individual.

Plus why waste the moderators time by forcing them to manage these types of threads? They did the right thing in deleting it.

[Vackashken]

I see no problem with this. Since SE refuses to do anything about botters and cheaters why shouldn't we at least know who they are publicly?

Seriously. Since you're so utterly toothless in your response, SE, why defang us as well?
