StorrZerg and Mattchew were masoned and used other means of communication than QuickTopic although we explicitly told them to refrain from using anything else which resulted in their modkills.
VayneAuthority got himself banned on TL forum during our game which resulted in his modkill. Approved for Storr and Matt, although I'm a little iffy on VA, I generally feel like getting tl banned and having to be modkilled is punishment enough, especially if its a game you wanted to play in, unless it was a requested ban. Either way if you really want VA warned, I'll warn him, it just feels like a double punishment.
In my opinion it isn't that difficult to stay out of troubles and not get a ban on TL. People playing in a game should consider that getting yourself banned on TL is hurting the game and should be easily avoided. I do understand your point though so if you don't want to warn him, I am ok with it.
As for StorrZerg and Mattchew's modkills: if anyone wants to discuss this and hear things from the host's point of view, feel free to PM me but I don't think this is suitable for the Ban List thread

we asked for skype chat and for the mod to be in it but we got denied that. i don't get why using skype with a mod in would be a problem. same exact thing as the qt, just no "email" like system to deal with
o and if anyone wants to hear the players point of view on how the mods handled the situation.... I see it only fair i put that out if the mod is going to do so as well.

The reason that we restrict it to QT is so that other players can review it post-game. There are several people who just like observing games, hence the obs QT threads. Sometimes mods will allow you to have skype/irc convos if you copy them into the QT, but it's up to them
P.S. Ange that is exactly what the banlist thread is for.

Ehm What I'm saying is it depends.

Dandel so bitter about that.

Not really bitter.
I'm just saying it's not always that easy. And then you'd have to look at what happened to get somebody banned and then you have to decide whether that was dumb or not. And and and.
It's honestly just far easier to go "dud got banned from TL so he's basically already sitting out games right now" and be done with it. real.

I'm fine with a warning, never read this until now. I apologized to the hosts in thread but if they didn't see it, let me re-iterate, I did not want to harm the game in any way and apologize for forcing you to modkill me.

StorrZerg and I have talked about this excessively through PMs and I don't see the need to bring it up for discussion again as the two of us obviously won't agree on this matter. If anyone else wants to talk about it we can of course talk about it in this thread. I just always thought that the Ban Thread is mostly about post-game punishments and less about in-game punishments and didn't want to derail conversation.

Seems simple to me. If you explicitly told them QT only communication, then it's fine to modkill them for it.
From my understanding, however, they were given no such restriction (at least Storr said they weren't), so it's a bit unfair to modkill for that.
Just my two-cents as a third party who only got one side of the story.
Objectively, though, it should be restricted to QT only when alignments are not confirmed, because it's unfair to scum in any other medium.
|
I thought the communcation extended into a cycle where they were no longer masoned but were still speaking to each other (through LoL). However that's too clear cut of a case for modkilling so the dates may be more complicated.
|
The rules in the OP mostly say that you can use other media. But dont know if voice media is allowed.
|
They used something else than QT (LoL) to communicate as a non confirmed mason pair. Previously they had asked us whether they could use something else (Skype) for their communication. We explicitely told them to keep all conversation strictly to QT. We did have suspicions whether they overextended their communication into another cycle but decided to not pursue that anymore as both said they had not.
I agree that we handled the modkill baldy. There have been communication issues (inconsistent statements between co-hosts and primary host) and I do regret that it resulted in misunderstandings for StorrZerg and Mattchew but there has not been another reason for me to modkill them besides what I just wrote. They actively and knowingly broke our rule which in my opinion warranted a modkill.
I know that this is more of a "minor crime" as nothing game-changing happened, they did not break the game by talking to each other on LoL which is why I only requested a warning for them.

Can I ask for warnings? Or for new rules? I want to ask a warning for Cephiro for posting baby seals as town.
The baby seal is a cute and happy animal, whenever it is spotted it should bring immediate happiness to you, never should it bring doubt.
Cephiro is feeding the doubt by using this cute little animal as town.
