If we make things invisible you won't know if we've deleted them or made them invisible.
True dat
That being said, Akosi spam over the website became very annoying in the last weeks and he entirely stopped writing constructive posts. I personally incentivate everyone expressing his opinion in a polite way and using common sense but what Akosi ended up doing was just spamming memes and non-sense phrases everywhere, necroing a lot of very old threads.
I very much respect your balanced judgement.
That being said, he is a good boy for sure (but he can't control himself). I don't know if the ban is permanent or temporary tho (will ask around)
I can support "time out" i.e. . temporary ban to cool heels for say,half day/one day/two days...up to one week in a worst situation. (And these time-outs can ofc be renewed if absolutely necessary). But they have to be exercised by somebody who is
sympitaco (sp?) to this board/Coh1/Coh2.Which is to say, has known the members and can recognise a risk situation, as opposed to a general
melange I am far from convinced that some badge holders knowthis is the case.
Smirnoff I don't think the censorship here has ever been that high (quite the opposite tbh),
Agreed,but do not overcompensate by bringing in the Gauleiter of London etc
but if you really believe so then it might be that we are doing something wrong. Where do you think we are doing it wrong?
I really do not like perma-bans for people like Nullist - in fact I think they are downright unfair....and therefore I would not/do not support a perma-ban for Akosi either. Maybe he annoyed the admin-and he becamea little'samey' - but he supported the site and was active.
Let me pose you a question,Marco: I do not need to read your reply - keep it to yourself -, but please answer this in your mind: friend Semint has not posted in here for how long? A year? He has contributed nothing to this board since his initial early piece on vCoH. Agreed? But he remains a badge-holder and accordingly devaluates whatever ranking system you have for that. It is a corruption. . Yet, people who do bother to post here e.g. Nullist or Akosi, get banned -possibly perma-banned.
Do you see where am I going? And without wanting to open old scabs from GR: Is this an old boys club which does not wake up and move on? DONT ANSWER ME on this board

-just answer these questions to yourself in your mind.
Are we making stuff invisible too many times instead of closing threads for example? (closing means that people could still see/read threads)
This board should lock more than it does - it might save some from bans -but it takes experienced posters to know when to do that,not green-behind-the- ears ambitious moderators,which one or two of your team are. No names,no pack- drill
