Easy there champ. He was not testing anyone. He said that he did understand the warning was from a mod but a mistake from the system.

The way it is displayed is kinda confusing for new comers as the warning comes from TL.Bot instead of the mod who made the warning.

That system could you use a little visual improvement to understand that warnings are issued from mods not from TL.Bot

I think he's referring to the fact that straight after explaining he now knows the rules he double posted.

My tone was half joking half serious. I'm not a stick up my ass, old, stingy, and cranky mod yet

But Phredxor is right. He double posted on the previous page. I'm pretty sure on purpose too

I just don't understand, WHY? I would even not know, it is a rule, if I was not banned for it ...

And when I do not understand the reason, I do not see a way how to follow it. Am I allowed to do a double / triple / quadruple post, if the posts will be let's say a few days from each other? As an example - I am trying to do some posts in the sOs Fan club thread. Almost noone else is active there. So I come back there after a few days with something new, and I see, the last post (a few days old) is mine. Does that mean, I am not allowed to post a new post? Or do I need to edit the last post adn add the new ideas into the old post? What a bullshit!

Multiple posting in fan clubs is perfectly fine. Mods shouldn't action you for that. Multiple posting in LR threads and threads that have heavy discussions going on is not. It gets spammy and annoying. And if we allow one person to do it then we have to allow everyone to do it. Then chaos breaks out and no one can really understand what anyone is saying.

Good idea. If I got the original warning from a mod, I would have answered to him that it is a mistake and we could clarify the situation.

Well, I have seen people doing what I did = marking the second post with "double post" and they were not banned ... so I thought, this might be OK if I do it as well? :-)

OK, this makes more sense now if it is allowed in fan clubs ... and the multiple posting in heavy discussions I do every day without a problem, as there is always someone posting between my posts. The problem are the "slow threads" ... so is there another exception than fan clubs?


This is so stupid to answer to three posts in one post :-)

And more so intentionally double-posted to make a point.

Mods are usually really lenient about double posting. Unless you have several in row in a short period of time and a bad record with double-posting you usually won't get banned.

Also if you want to really double-post be like ComaDose (see http://www.liquidlegends.net/forum/shopkeepers-inn/426393-off-topic-general-discussion?page=2712 and the following 2 pages).

How you did it just now is correct. Quote multiple times and put it all into one post. Thank you for doing that.
If it's a really slowly moving thread and you don't want to get warned or banned for multiple posting, then post in here, PM a mod, or go to the Ask TL Staff Anything thread and ask us if it's okay to multi-post. We'll take a look at it, and if we think multiple posting should be allowed in that situation, we'll give you the thumbs up.
Btw, if you post, then someone posts in between your next post, that is not multiple posting. That's just posting

You could literally quote them and answer them individually in the same reply... Whats hard with that?

My tone was half joking half serious. I'm not a stick up my ass, old, stingy, and cranky mod yet


I yet have to see that mode of you

By the way did you see my previous PM about that interview? I hope you translate it soon as I'm eager to see what FanTaSy said in that video.


Edit: See? Just like this, I replied to you and seeker at the same post.

OK, thanks, this is a good example. But I never did anything like that. The thing was that I was answering to another people's comments. And they had nothing to do with each other, it would lose the whole point if I mixed 3 different asnwers in one post ...

I've seriously been busy as crap these past couple of weeks. And translating an interview like that where I have to go back and listen to what he's saying rather than just translate KR text into EN text, is A LOT harder.

Hmm, I don't feel you quite hit the mark on the explanation here. Honestly, the reason Mystique gave made more sense to me.

I don't feel the key thing that allows multiposting is related to how fast the topic moves. Rather, it is just a matter of clear layout of your contribution. The end goal is readability. If you are sticking to one subject, better to write your sub-points in paragraphs or something, so people can see that it is all from the same person. If you are posting on very different topics inside a thread, it is ok to use separate posts. it should be a choice in the same way you chose to split up paragraphs, punctuate, and so on.

In the LR example, I'd say it is ok to use separate posts if you are commenting on why sOs decided to go so heavy DTs in last game, discussing soO's rumoured new build on the upcoming map, and exactly how hungover tasteless is. If there are three separate reply-chains on those subjects, I don't see the reason to cram them all in the same post.

But Mystique, if you get a warning for double posting, automated or not, and you go on to triple (or quadruple?) post a few hours later, you are not really in a position to claim ignorance. You got the warning, chose to ignore it, and suffered the consequences. Entirely your fault, motivated ban or not, sorry.

Hmm, I don't feel you quite hit the mark on the explanation here. Honestly, the reason Mystique gave made more sense to me.

I don't feel the key thing that allows multiposting is related to how fast the topic moves. Rather, it is just a matter of clear layout of your contribution. The end goal is readability. If you are sticking to one subject, better to write your sub-points in paragraphs or something, so people can see that it is all from the same person. If you are posting on very different topics inside a thread, it is ok to use separate posts. it should be a choice in the same way you chose to split up paragraphs, punctuate, and so on.

In the LR example, I'd say it is ok to use separate posts if you are commenting on why sOs decided to go so heavy DTs in last game, discussing soO's rumoured new build on the upcoming map, and exactly how hungover tasteless is. If there are three separate reply-chains on those subjects, I don't see the reason to cram them all in the same post.

But Mystique, if you get a warning for double posting, automated or not, and you go on to triple (or quadruple?) post a few hours later, you are not really in a position to claim ignorance. You got the warning, chose to ignore it, and suffered the consequences. Entirely your fault, motivated ban or not, sorry.

I'm lazy and didn't feel like giving a long explanation. Also, who is Mystique?


Was just about to ask this too..


From the context he means Diabolique I think.


That's what I assumed, but it's really different name to get it mixed up with :s

Easy there champ. He was not testing anyone. He said that he did understand the warning was from a mod but a mistake from the system.

The way it is displayed is kinda confusing for new comers as the warning comes from TL.Bot instead of the mod who made the warning.

That system could you use a little visual improvement to understand that warnings are issued from mods not from TL.Bot

Good idea. If I got the original warning from a mod, I would have answered to him that it is a mistake and we could clarify the situation.

I think he's referring to the fact that straight after explaining he now knows the rules he double posted.

Well, I have seen people doing what I did = marking the second post with "double post" and they were not banned ... so I thought, this might be OK if I do it as well? :-)

I just don't understand, WHY? I would even not know, it is a rule, if I was not banned for it ...

And when I do not understand the reason, I do not see a way how to follow it. Am I allowed to do a double / triple / quadruple post, if the posts will be let's say a few days from each other? As an example - I am trying to do some posts in the sOs Fan club thread. Almost noone else is active there. So I come back there after a few days with something new, and I see, the last post (a few days old) is mine. Does that mean, I am not allowed to post a new post? Or do I need to edit the last post adn add the new ideas into the old post? What a bullshit!

Multiple posting in fan clubs is perfectly fine. Mods shouldn't action you for that. Multiple posting in LR threads and threads that have heavy discussions going on is not. It gets spammy and annoying. And if we allow one person to do it then we have to allow everyone to do it. Then chaos breaks out and no one can really understand what anyone is saying.


OK, this makes more sense now if it is allowed in fan clubs ... and the multiple posting in heavy discussions I do every day without a problem, as there is always someone posting between my posts. The problem are the "slow threads" ... so is there another exception than fan clubs?


This is so stupid to answer to three posts in one post :-)

How you did it just now is correct. Quote multiple times and put it all into one post. Thank you for doing that.
If it's a really slowly moving thread and you don't want to get warned or banned for multiple posting, then post in here, PM a mod, or go to the Ask TL Staff Anything thread and ask us if it's okay to multi-post. We'll take a look at it, and if we think multiple posting should be allowed in that situation, we'll give you the thumbs up.
Btw, if you post, then someone posts in between your next post, that is not multiple posting. That's just posting

Look, Seeker, I really like you and respect you. But I do not think, I will be using this "answering in one post" much. Because this is a nonsense and I do not like it. But I promise, I will be very careful with any further double postings. Mostly, I will just not do the second post. So:

1. In fast flowing discussions, I do not care, I will just post quickly, in 90% of cases, somebody else writes in between my posts.

2. In sOs fanclub, I will not care if my posts are several days away from each other or describe another topic completely.

3. If I will want to make a double post in a slow moving thread, I will for sure not contact you or the mods and ask for permission, this is just some stupid discussion and I believe, your (and my) time is too valuable to contact you with something so stupid. So in these cases, I will consider whether it is reasonable in that particular situation to make a double post instead of putting it into the old post, and if yes, I will do the double post. In the worst case, I will be banned again for 2 days and that is nothing, I can't live with, just the mods of TL would fall in my eyes one level deeper.

No. Not at all. I care and will not double post in the most cases. But in 1), it will usually not be a double post and a random double post there is somehow OK, 2) is allowed by Seeker :-), and 3) will be very rare and I will just consider the situation instead of bothering somebody else with it. So, in 95% cases, there will be no double posts.
