We're out of Billygoats.

Oh, and remember. Trolls get strikes, temps, etc. before permabans just like everyone else. You know. Dwarves, Ents, Elves, orcs, etc. Although I cannot think of the last time I had to ban an Ent or Elf.

The problem with most troll is that they are not properly board trained. A board conditioned troll can be extremely amusing.

I propose that we cull the troll heard and keep the promising specimens for a training program. We could have a mentor-protege systeem in which members may volunteer to "coach" a troll for maximum enterntainment value. There are a couple of banned ones that should be considered for sponsorship as well.

The rest should get the axe.

Baiting a "troll" will not get them banned any faster. In fact, it's usually the opposite.

Dammit Frog, why do you have magical the ability to pull a perfectly legit serious thread off topic so easily? :D

hes saying that its no ok to harrass people that you feel are trolling. thats the mods job

But what about when the mods arent doing their job? When there are clearly people trolling the boards and nothing is done? Its not a just a case of "I think so and so are trolls", other DA-ers have mentioned it/pointed it out.

Monster

Pretty much.

I'm saying that if you bait a member, regardless of whether they're trolling, borderline trolling, or not trolling at all, you will still be given a warning for baiting that member. If the member that was being baited rises to the bait, then the mods will either warn both parties, or warn neither. In the long run, trying to bait a member that you feel is trolling only prolongues that member's stay on DA--if they are in fact a troll.

Zach, I am confused. Seriously. Based on what you're saying, it's reading to me that if you are being attacked, you're going to get warned/banned for defending yourself, or "rising to the bait." If I am misunderstanding you, then please set me straight. I suppose this is to try & snuff out flame wars, but don't you think people get sick of being attacked or seeing their friends being attacked, and it appearing that nothing is being done??? One poster who has recently joined DA (no names mentioned) has namecalled, baited, attacked & even threatened "to get" several members. Yet...no temp ban. This hasn't been a one time thing.

THIS is a big part of why people are frustrated. A few years ago, a poster of this nature would've been banned. I can recall one poster who was permabanned after 20 or so posts for the same thing. So to see people jump in thread after thread to bait others here, and them being allowed to stay....yeah it pisses some of us off. And I think people here know that I usually don't go off on people, but to watch my friends be attacked, and then hear that nothing is being done because they defended themselves or I spoke up on their behalf.....:( I have reported posts more lately than I did before, but I don't know if it honestly does any good.

I know that many people think some of us are being paranoid, but you know what??? If you were being harrassed by people here for an extended period of time, and it seemed that nothing was being done, wouldn't you feel a bit paranoid??? Wouldn't you get sick of turning the other cheek??? That's the point a few of us are at.

Many of us have made good friends here on DA; hell I found my future hubby here. We don't want to leave, but stuff like this drains a lot of the fun out of it for us.

NO, it means that it makes the troll's unacceptible activity look more like "self-defense" (and therefore a bit more excusible) when you bait or attack them.

That's PART of why Martin got so many chances WAY back when, when I was on staff. If it were all one sided, it's easier to draw a line of right or wrong.

That's MY understanding of things based on personal experience anyway. Since I'm not actually staff however, you'll have the proper & official explainations from them :)

I get what you're saying Rob :)

BUT it's feeling like reporting posts & not saying anything in a thread, or trying to straighten out a problem in a mature manner isn't doing any good anymore either. So what options are left??? Fighting back. Defending yourself. Sticking up for your friends. But that doesn't work either. The behavior continues & progressively gets worse. It's like "damned if you do, damned if you don't."

I am hoping that this thread stays open, questions are answered & these concerns can be discussed in a mature, open manner :hmm:

04-29-2006, 01:32 AM
*sigh* I came back around this time during the middle of this little round of drama, so it's truly hard for me to make any really valid observations about how things have gone.

All I can do is comment based on how I know things went or were done when I was on staff. Based solely on that, I can tell you it's easier for the staff to justify "dropping the bomb" if there's a clear one-sided case. Also, SOMETIMES people can be turned around or at least give up if their anger isn't fed with counterattacks. Not always. Let's face it, some people are just plain hostile or disturbed.

Lastly, just remember the staff is trying to be tolerant & give people a chance to get their heads out of their rears. Marty again was a great example. Hell, if it weren't for that general policy, I probably would have had my own happy arse banned a few times back in the day. Sometimes it pays off, sometimes it doesn't.


One added point in dealing with staff (or anybody)... HOW you say something is just as important as what you say. Diplomacy is the art of getting others to do what you want (instead of what they necessarily want) and feel good about it. ;)

IIRC you left the site (and STAFF) in a huff because you wanted Manu to create a special unbiased arbitrator position for you and you'd determine who was right or wrong on issues and were basically told to go pound salt.

Is that fairly accurate?

No, but it's nice to see I could count on you to stir up trouble & distort things again.


When that crap went down, I suggested some sort of arbitrator to help play peacemaker & negotiate mutually agreed upon solutions in situations like this, and moreso in disputes between a staffer & regular member.

I NEVER said it HAD to happen

I volunteered to try to do it if Manu felt comfortable with me doing it, but said I didn't care who did it IF it were done at all

LEAVING was a combination of "friends" distorting the non-staff side of the issue, people like you on staff looking to assume the worst & throw weight around needlessly, (both sides making it a no-win situation), and quite honestly a lot of extra outside stress from a ****ed up marriage & other pointless drama.

Clear enough?



Nice to see you can come out of nowhere again stirring up shit when I'm just trying to calm a few friends down.

04-29-2006, 02:01 AM
OH, and for the record, I was the one that TRIED invain to keep TCI from becoming nothing more than a bash DA site when Turbostang, Powerboss & I started it up. I did pretty good at it for a while too, BUT once it was obvious that was all they wanted, I threw in the towel there since that wasn't what I was about.

All you have to do is go see how the posting went to shit there after I left to see how I tried to do some good

beatlebabe
04-30-2006, 12:27 AM
I'm not sure what's to look into it in the first place. It's a direct IP match to a banned person, confirmed to several people by a staff member. When this has happened before the user was banned almost immediately, usually within a day or two.

Errr no, it doesn't mean that.Wake up!

Basically a decent troll will have you going mental. You will get angry and start to rant/swear etc, the troll won't, therefore you will get banned instead.

Its not confusing at all, in fact it's really simple. :D :D :D :D

Again...really simple. When one person has a problem with another, and you join in to attack the other person just cos it's your friend in the argument and you feel a need to help her attack someone ,just because you follow them like a sheep (Baaahh) then you deserve it. Its called bullying....it's cowardly and pathetic.
Why do you think I didnt get a warning when you reported me twice? Because you were out of order, not me.....:D

Well call me an idiot for this post, but I felt compelled to be a part of it and respond to it.......Yo guys, it's me, Mama G. I was banned FOREVER because of the stuff between Eeper and I. I had only received verbal warning, no written warnings. I admit I posted some stuff that was probably inappropriate, but instead of ignoring her baits, I responded and got my a$$ in trouble. I miss all you guys, I have begged to be able to post again, but I have received no answers. Yet, this whole thing intrigues me. She's still posting, under an assumed identity, everybody knows it's her, her IP is an exact match, yet she still posts away. Even some of the Mod's have admitted that it's her IP. I never caused that much trouble on this website, yet I feel like I was the one who got screwed. I'll probably get banned again under this new name, but that's okay, just being able to express myself was worth it. I miss you guys and I'd really like to be able to return as Mama G.

[Edit | Delete] ok that's fine....so if they're the only ones you care about why are you constantly on spab & snouter???
04-16-2006 07:00 PM Modette
The only person I give a dam about is Blair (Voluptious Red) and Boudicca/Loveblessing!

After Red came in the Shoutbox:

And yes, it was reported. Both Red & Zach PM'd me about it after.



Wow, that's clever!, PHD's coming to both of us:D

Not moving to another thread, it's just pointless arguing anyway, I'm just not going to comment any further on the subject, it's finished as far as I'm concerned.

Eventually DA will consist of Manu, Kraw, and the many faces of Eeper. Everyone will/has gotten sick of the bullshit and will leave/have left. Apparently the Mods have more issues than Jacko.

This is pretty funny. DA has a rather extensive TOS and a rather large contingent of management wielding warnings and bannings - but the members here aren't supposed to take it seriously?

:confused:

:confused:

The forum rules are like 15 lines long. And we have a half dozen mods, two admins, and an owner, none of whom are getting paid to moderate the site, and all of whom have lives outside of DA. As should every other member.

If you find yourself losing sleep over something that someone wrote on an Internet message board, you probably need to reconsider your priorities in life.

^ Cop-out. Like any other human social environment, people eventually form ties & begin to value the community.

That's why we have DA marriages on the horizon.

besides, what do you do in real life social situations when someone pisses you off? Do you pray to God to strike them down with a bolt of lightning, thus "banning" them from real life?

Yes, that's true, Feenix. But it had to start somewhere - turns out it all started right here on DA! :)

Feenix is right.all this hand wringing over a feud that ended months ago-and n00bs are being involved that don't even know whats going on.It's pathetic.

It may not make sense, but that doesn't seem to stop a lot of people around here from doing it, though. :hmm:

hes saying that its no ok to harrass people that you feel are trolling. thats the mods job :nice:

Let us talk about who is the Troll here, for a moment.

Now we all know that this is a running battle between me and eeper69. Of the two of us, let's compare DA information.

1. I am who I say I am and only have and have only had for 4 years, one screen name.

2. Ms. DA Debate 2005

3. Ms. DA 2004

4. Ms. DA 2003

Vice President of DA 2004 with Red Thunder as President.

vs

Eeper

1. came in as Chelsea Charms and got caught.

2. set up sexual meeting with DAers she couldn't make and had to back out of because she isn't who she said she is.

3. got caught plagarizing other message boards and posting those plagarsims in the news forums. (Jesusland Chronicles)

4. voted ugliest DAer in 2005

5. voted bigggest Troll in 2005.

and of course, that's just the tip of the iceberg. The big thing to me of course is that she's stalking me. There was no feud. There was an uncalled for attack on me by her because she wants to replace me or be me on this board and probably in real life and there were some attempts by me to stop this in the form of self-defense.

you may spout your revisionist history crap to other people vol red, but I never did a damn thing to you either. the fact that you are using your sexual relationship with zach to try to get me ousted to benefit eeper defines you as a person. I put it down to massive insecurity and low self esteem on your part. I didn't think anything of you one way or the other until this time, but I sure have distinct opinions now.

Well, that was nicely edited. Pretty sure I said more than that anyway. However you've edited it to make it look like we were the only ones who were out of order that night.

As regards PMs...surely you don't think you were the only one to get any? Modette did too, both from moderators and other members, and no I'm not dsaying who,the contents of which I won't disclose, but let's just say they were not supportive of you and your 'ally'...;)


making alters personas and bringing new people over from other boards to create sheer numbers doesn't change truth.

I don't doubt you have heard from some mods how 'horrible' I am and how I have victimized poor eeper69. that doesn't make it true and in fact you are aiding her in the exact opposite. thanks for helping her stalk me. not.

ally my ass. it's not a gang war. it's a fat troll and weak people she can suck into attacking one individual who never did anything to any of these people.

**** you.

if you are so interested in 'noobs' not being subjected to old shit, then why is this welcome thread one big ****ing bait and troll:

http://www.discussanything.com/forums/showthread.php?t=90987

I've never seen a welcome thread like that before this in my life, but doubtlessly it's going to be the norm in the 'new' eeper-run DA. What a joy for all noobies.

she can have this ****ing message board, feenix, you are right... that's all it is when everything is said and done. a message board on the internet.

yeah, I have friends and relationships I have built up in the community for 4 years but ultimately it is just a message board.

what I would like to know is if I stop posting and let eep and her 'army' have this board, a board I personally never tried to control by sucking up to (or sucking) moderators, is she going to shut the **** up about me and move on with her life?

I have no assurances of that and from recent threads it looks like when and if I leave, voluntarily or because I was baited into being banned, that it will be one big slanderfest after I'm gone. trashspab.com

you get me some assurances from your "master" and we'll see what we can negotiate.
