Then kindly STFU. I don't want to have to implement a mute script. I'm not putting it on, but I've been informed that we had some serious trouble on here last night. Now, I'm not going to name names... Wait, I am, eventually. But here's the deal. If you are annoying people by blabbering on in the main chat and a mod/admin asks you to be quiet, or if for that matter if anyone mod or not asks as their feelings matter too, stop and look over what you've been saying. If it seems to be something that you are not particularly proud of, change the course of action. If you are in an argument with someone and it's annoying everyone else, either take it to a PM if you both want to keep arguing or just cut it off. You aren't going to change how anyone thinks over the internet. If you can't see why you've been annoying everyone after looking it over, especially if a mod/admin asked you to stop, feel free to ask(politely of course). Odds are you'll get an explanation and learn a little something. If you can't get things through your thick skull, then just don't talk for a while.

I don't want to implement a mute script because we shouldn't need it. I don't want to have to have any cracking down on the rules because quite frankly I like to keep rules and punishment down to a minimum. However, if there continues to be problems, I do intend to investigate them and pluck them at the source.

Now, as per the important part:

Soannoying, I don't know what it is, but you've somehow managed to get on the bad side of most of the server. Now, don't take it personally, but it seems as if a pattern in what you say in the server and post here offends some people. I don't want to have to pass any judgment, but I just ask you to remember that sometimes saying less is more. I haven't heard that you were the worst involved in the incident last night, but the fact that your name keeps coming up in random complaints I get tells me that somehow there is still an issue. I don't want there to be an issue.

BBM, I know you are quite zelous in your quest to flame every n00b on the internet, and for that I applaud you. However, when you start going into a flamefest with a random, it just causes problems for everyone. So, if someone is posting in the main chat and making you upset, and a polite request for them to stop fails, rather than taking it into a full blown argument, PM one of the friendly moderators of AAMS and see if they can't resolve the issue.

Seriously, I dislike the fact that this topic has to be, but when I hear about things being just awful as such, it just saddens me. I am not implementing the mute script, but I'm keeping it in mind. Please, AAMS is an experiment beyond just the metagame; it is an experiment in a free server in which everyone can coexist happily with only a minimal oversight from moderators and administrators. I strongly want things to run that way, and those who get in the way of that get quickly on my bad side, and I can be petty and vindictive. Have a nice day.

I don't like to give names for something like that, but I do know BBM wouldn't mind me saying how much soannoying annoys him. Others find him annoying too. Josh is just cool like that so he has tolerance.

I don't flame n00bs, I flame idiots.

Get it right, GAWD!

But seriously, I can't believe you think that anyone who comes in and says "(Insert User name) is a (insert racial slur) and a (insert offensive adjective + offensive noun)" deserves whats coming to them.

Even if the people deserve it, you have a way of not fixing the problem. Moderators can summon the power of bannation.

Ok, my attempt at an intelligent post...

Here's my take on soannoying... he talks too much and does so before he thinks about it. When he sees a conversation he has to join in even if he has nothing to say. As a result, he says things that do not contribute at all to the conversation, either stating to obvious, restating what has been said, or making some vaguely related point that is not of interest. We then waste our team reading what is completely pointless. This alone is bad enough, but he also thinks he is funny when he really isn't, something which is incredibly irritating. Here's an example >_>

bbm
 
Now go die.

soannoying
 
casts autorevive on self. ooops it seems I have done the opposite.


Now who above the age of 10 would find that funny? Seriously, that comment was made with the maturity of a 3rd grade student. I realize that humour is a very subjective thing to be using but it is a major factor in this argument. No one finds him funny except himself, and it's not like there are other outstanding qualities about him.

I also realize that I may be being a bit harsh, but I am on the side that hates him, and I am waiting for him to come out and defend himself. It's interesting that he finds something stupid to say in every topic, but can't bring himself to post in one like this.

Now for the flip side... I have always told BBM he was a little harsh on the nubs but whatever. Point is, it gets annoying people out of the way. In the case of soannoying, I think BBM is fully justified in his flaming. He has been told not only by BBM, but also by MANY people to smarten up and he has not. So, we've already told him to stop as you said, and it's quite obvious he hasn't. So what now? In your post you said it was the moderators' move next.

Ok, maybe he doesn't know what he's doing wrong. Maybe it's not his fault at all. After all, he claims he "isn't normal". However, he has made no effort whatsoever to find out what it was about him that annoyed us, and it has come to the point where you have to ask for him. In my opinion, that calls for action.

soannoying comes into a conversation and says something completely irrelevant to the situation. And he never thinks before he says anything.


It might seem like BBM flames people for no apparent reason, but most of the time it's because they are making idiotic comments. and soannoying does it a lot <_<

I don't think soannoying and BBM are the entire focus here. I mean yes, there are issues, but what internet community doesn't have the obligatory harmless annoyance and zealotous flamer? I think the bigger problem is that the entire community is so against soannoying that we spend more time flaming him than talking about anything else. On top of that, things like that picture topic are just begging for casual "friendly flaming" that I think goes out of hand.

I hold nothing bad on anyway, as I'm sure you all know.

If soannoying irritates you, then either ignore him or just don't reply to him. If BBM flames you, don't rise to him and flame him back, ask politely why etc.

I say we stop taking this so seriously and just have fun ^.^

fine I'll be less random in main chat if it's really such a big deal. Actually squirster I asked what I do what's so offensive in the nonwhat forums immediatly after this topic was posted in main chat. The answer I got was basically "I don't know" from AA. I don't remember anyone else responding. Look if someone is really annoying you or offending you in chat just use the ignore function. It will work as long as the person's main purpose isn't to annoy/offend you. Seriously who's going to go "oh no I've been ignored by soandso I better change my name or dc and then reconnect." When people start doing it that's a good time for mod banning action.
So far I haven't seen any of that even by the people who seem to hate me the most.
As for BBM I simply ignore him when I want to it's great! Its my own fault that I waste time reading his posts here. (though I strongly recommend that he use less flame in nonwhat posts.)

What exactly DID happen last night?

And another thing, when people tell soannoying to stop posting something like that, he ignores them. So then he keeps posting things irrelevent to anything in the topic. I say read and listen at least sometimes, if you wonder why this happens. =\

Since this is bumped, I think a mute script would be nice. That delibird spammer guy who was on yesterday was just looking for a ban, and I think he would be as annoyed as hell if nobody could see him spam.

Actually, I find the mute script kinda pointless. If it gets to the point where nobody wants to listen to someone being annoying, kick them. If they come back and keep it up, tempban. If it gets to the point where the user is intolerable, permban. I don't see what muting would accomplish.
