We usually like to explain our actions but sometimes we can have up to 15-20 reports at once. It doesn't really lend itself to writing out long explanations - that said, I usually try to write one. "I have my reasons" is just the default pre-set ban message. You'll probably see it if some guy regs a new account and makes an abominable post because it was so terrible it didn't need explanation. Sometimes we remove their post too though, so yeah. | ||

tamoorazizgheba was just temp banned for 2 days by Chill. That account was created on 2011-04-29 09:42:48 and had 5 posts. Reason: Idra fans are fucking insane. I get that Chill is probably is a fairly bad mood at the moment but seriously? Thanks for helping defuse the situation and avoiding further splitting the community. | ||

I wonder if he'll ever change or at least mature a little and learn to moderate what passes between his brain and his mouth. Here's to hoping I guess. You know, I kinda find that a funny sentiment (although I agree with the societal implications of such an act). Everyone when asked would probably agree that honesty is the best policy; but in reality we live in a society that punishes such actions. If I were to tell you something factual while leaving out my true meaning it would be called dishonest or "lying through omission". Yet here we are in a situation where most would agree that one should simply not be honest, and in fact "moderate" his true feelings. The life of a forum moderator is simple in that he only has to adhere to his own moral judgement of what is acceptable, while in fact the policies set out on any such forum are hard to actually place. It is easy to say "common sense" must rule; but in practice it is hard to enforce. While I might find in my Canadian sensibilities something not offensive, another mod from another background may; and I am obliged to present a unified front and agree with his actions. (See the fact that some people might find Jinro swearing in public interviews offensive, while he admits that is just his swedish background and they don't fret such things). So I can understand why Idra is banned so often here; there is a large variety of moderators from very different moral backgrounds that will in fact find pure honesty disrespectful or offensive. Funnily enough many societies find disrespect in and of itself offensive, so his forthright opinion of other players is actually gonna piss some mods off. Now of course, there is always the other option; he is just and ass and no one likes an ass. But I find the honesty and moderation angle intriguing. | ||

 A had imagined the whole statement of "Day9 should stop discussing SC2 he doesn't know what he is talking about he doesn't play enough" would have caused even more fire. | ||

He has gotten way too many second chances, and even though he has brought a lot to the community he needs to be taught he is not god. I think they're most likely reluctant to be rid of him permanently because he contributes a lot more than random trolls martyring or posting memes, or flaming. Although IdrA can be rather BM at times, he is an important part of eSports, and TL. | ||

I think you're construing (edit - probably not the right word now that i reread this post, but it's final weeks and im going to turn that into my excuse for poor word choice) the concept of somewhat just saying whatever comes to mind (telecontar's post about IdrA) with being honest. There is a subtle difference between having this stream of conscious thought being spoken and being honest with what you say. But I agree that that angle of thought is intriguing though. Was the comment by IdrA on stream or in a post? I've heard it was on a stream and I'm not entirely sure I like the idea of streams being moderated in that sense, but then again I'm also not a mod so who cares. | ||

User was temp banned for this post. It's just the "waste of life" aspect. We wouldn't tolerate that from anyone. As for Cruncher, there's no way to actually prove he's cheating. If we could actually catch someone stream cheating, there would be some repercussions. | ||

Except your tl commandment page specifically mentions getting "verbally medieval" on someone as allowed when the situation warrants it. I would think the heavy implication of stream cheating/sniping to be exactly that kind of situation, especially given how enthused cruncher seems to be about bm'ing idra. Is there any particular reason why flaming someone for stream cheating him isn't justified in this instance? | ||
