Any feedback is feedback. Posting feedback doesn't really demand logs nor is it as strictly quality-controlled as ban appeals/admin complaints.
The player had a negative experience and posted it. Logs are optional. His opinion is his opinion.
I would have posted in his other thread but my opinion would likely be considered peanut gallery. I'll just drop mine here because I can: the ban that Frebbie referred to was made from an emotional, subjective place and imho should not have been a ban at all. While Frebbie did post a distasteful and/or hateful comment it was not something that would fall under rule 8 nor was it ban-worthy.
OOC: Frebbie wrote:to be fair you white south africans deserve the rape and violence. working to make a living is racist and youre denying your wealth to blacks"
While that nigga did say some stupid shit, this was at worst a /pol/ post. Not a doxx, not a threat. Just an untactful statement. We don't have safe space rules nor do we have hate speech laws and I wish it was kept that way. Goon/Yog does and their rules are fucking shit. Calling people out on being untactful or mean is perfectly fine. Thought policing isn't. Besides, how would you know you are saying something untactful unless you are explained why that is the case? Ban him from OOC if he is spamming, not for hurting someone's fee fees.
Rule 1 wrote:
Don't be a dick.
We're all here to have a good time, supposedly. Going out of your way to seriously negatively impact or end the round for someone with little IC justification is against the rules. Legitimate conflicts where people get upset do happen however, as detailed in the escalation section of the rules."
This rule talks about IC escalation, not OOC banter. Being a dick is subjective, and the window of "being a dick" seems to be getting broader, because seemingly people are getting more thin skinned every year.
We are slowly elevating the chat moderation and I hate to invoke the slippery slope fallacy, but this is a reddit-tier ban and I am honestly concerned about it, this sets an unpleasant precedent. But what does my opinion count for if it's politically incorrect, right? :^)
Grow some thicker skin, we're supposed to be good at handling banter. We used to be a 4chan server.
If you delete my post I will bite your nose off.
