What bothered me was the stance on any evidence remotely pointing towards a user or IP being behind the attack from Badspot himself or otherwise being called "finger pointing". I understand that this was an attempt to keep people from going on witch hunts, but when you have a space set up to talk about whats going on and you're actively removing discussion on the attack or what Badspot is reporting, I stop seeing value in that space existing at all.
It just seems kind of stuffty to set up a space to talk about a subject and then moderate what people can say about it especially when that information is coming from a credible source.
we only have a channel like that to prevent it spilling over into the main general channel. a lot of people in that discord couldn't give a single stuff about the forums and a lot of people will have that channel muted the second it's opened and/or becomes active.
if you feel like the channel ends up having no value at all (which it hardly does), then again, just mute it. it's not the main focus of the discord at all.
i'm sticking by the "no finger pointing" rule as i don't want witch hunts started in that discord. i don't want to be the one responsible for letting it happen in case accusations end up false, and i know the rest of the staff feel the same way.
we let major drama be discussed in there so long as whatever is being discussed isn't specifically targeted at someone, even if it's just an IP or "who's the guy doing the ddos" or something.
The discord is too strict on having drama involved, and for me to get warned for just jokingly tell people to shut up which counted to my ultimatum when I found old stuff on another user led to my ban is already showing that the administrators in question cannot handle things at all. I do admit, I have used an alt so I do not believe I should be unbanned because apparently using an alt is a crime against humanity. I can see that Conan has a good server and good intentions but already, the following has happened
you also attempted to start drama according to the emboldened part of that quote and then attempted to avoid it by using an alternate discord account,
which im going to guess since you were banned again, attempted to start drama on it as well (EDIT: was told you came back and immediately advertised your burning man thread). shouldn't be hard to hide an alt account if you just keep your mouth shut and use a different completely unrelated name/avatar.
if you want to discuss drama,
there's this whole category for it in case you never knew. i find the petty stuff irritating and i like it away from this discord.
Who is being encouraged to spam a forum? 4chan? le reddit army? etc? Nobody is going to bomb a forum because they're encouraged to do so, and Blockland Drama is the only reason why the forum gets bombed in the first place.
big think
If people are leaving a discord because of how things are mishandled, you know something is wrong and you should look into reform.
