I hope that the people we're referring to would read this thread.


Or better yet, I think we need to add this to the rules. "If you are flamed, just ignore it" or w/e.
EDIT: Or I mean, put more emphasis on tihs.

We dont want to wake up in the morning and see the next news post full of comments like "No u F*** ur so stupid go get a life" or something.

Any flame that obvious wouldn't make it past any moderator.

What are your suggestions. How to teach them to ignore ? (The will not lear by themselves)

I just had this idea - how about making some sort of moderating duty, like "post controll". Their duty is to check all new posts, and report the ones that should be reported to global mod's. I had this idea becawse posts don't get reported much, I think. And you guys don't have the time to look at all the posts. I think it's possible to make: this "post controller" has a function, that shows all new posts that have been made on SEN. (or it may allready exist but I don't know about it)

If you have something like this allready, just ignore it.

Reading all posts in not practical. If it takes a couple of weeks to go through the DLDB, how the heck can we read every post?

It is kind of funny hearing that this problem is occuring while some people are disagreeing and thinking that this is not really a problem. Well considering that it is occuring in this topic that is about flaming.

Quick Recap

Flaming occuring in the topic made on flaming.

Something fishy there!

And that, is the problem. People HAVE to learn to ignore these. You only make things worse if you don't. There is no such thing as a flame-free world. Many people on this site are way too sensitive to words. Keep up with this attitude later on in life, you'll blow your mind up. If people claim that they're mature on this site; the best way to show this is to ignore flames and not let them take the best of you.[right][snapback]497326[/snapback][/right]

That's sort of a double wammy. People can't ignore things because people are too immature and are like
"LOL GF U CENT TUELK I PWN U IN OTHAR THRED GG GG GG"
So we're in a circle of badness.

If you let words over the internet affect you that much, you're really too emotionally weak. If it's in real life, fine w/e, but this is over the internet.

It's not that I get emotionally hurt when Euro told me to get a dirty sanchez it's just from past expirences I know that would carry over. And on some occasions (Not so much to me, anymore) it has. Like HoRRoR or whoever has it in there sig who talks about how Lyon sucks. Techinally it isn't flamming but it's unnessarcy hatred towards one another.

Not really. I read most of the posts every day. I could read the modding fourm but I really don't feel like it. And there's always ways to catch stuff. If a thread called "it's my brithday" reaches to 8 pages and it's some unknown members. Chances are something is up.

This is true but, I dont feel like listening to many other people in the forum bicker at eachother.

Idea that would help : Higher more sectional moderators because it's impossible for 6 people to moderate the whole site. We need one person for like each section but, in the other section we would need more or we should have 1 person for games, one person for creative, one person for serious and lite, and one person for null or something along those lines. It all depends on how many people you would like to higher and how many people you can trust.

No I'm saying it isn't entirely the staff's duty to control what's going on. Sure we've got to be more aggressive and stuff, but we alone can't do the job. We need your help, your cooperation, Mutual relationship rather than a symbiotic or even parasitic relationship.
[right][snapback]497306[/snapback][/right]


Just like Camo's thread. Exactly. In order to "stop flame" members must strive to ignore others in their flamage.

QUOTE(MillenniumArmy @ Jun 1 2006, 10:32 AM)
We can't do much about those few bad people who do nothing but flame or cause trouble with bad manners or such, but what the rest of us could do is just ignore them, not get drawn up into wars with them. They're just words; words can't hurt you, especially if they're over the internet. That way, those people who started it would eventually be the only ones ending up flaming and thus, would be the prime targets for us staff members  shifty.gif

Ignoring is simple. Just some members deserve what they have comming to them.

Yeah. It's not hard to teach kids new things, it happens all the time. That's what school is, duh!

Anyways: It's impossible for moderators to get every single little post on every single solotary forum. The only way to get that to happen, is to get more moderators (Which most likely, will never happen soon. It took them how long to get these newest ones?)

Exactly. That's what I dislike about most new members. They don't know what a TRUE flame is. They think any form of discussion where members are a tiny bit heated, is flames.

It's rather pathetic.

I'm sure the moderators do their best job for keeping the flame out. Maybe message the person who you are annoyed with, and kindly ask them to stop.

QUOTE

That only works for so long. Since I've seen that type before I decided not to respond, and what do you know a few days later when there was a discussion they brought it back saying I don't know anything. That sure was fun.
Eventually I talked to someone who knew that person and basically told him to shut it.

I already mentioned that:

Only I said block...
And when he said "lol u no nuthin" that's not flamming or trolling really. And it wasn't the only thing in his post so it wasn't spam either. So the only law he is breaking is that it's impossible to go into negative IQ numbers.

I dont see what the big discussion is. I was giving an example of how there will always be morons/immature people on SEN.

We should something like Yoshi's rule that he had in art+images. If you post your own separate topic for rate my sig your automatically banned from it because you couldnt read the rules. So in the whole site if you flame you are suspended right away and next time you are banned. because people will then people will not want to take a chance at flaming.
