Which actions should mods tell us.

In the last post, mods almost unanimous agreed that they do give explanations when asked. So I guess we are free to recall those words every time we ask for explanation, and it will be given.

However I didn't made a clear line between who was the one asking for that information: The one who got the punishment or the one who didn't. This post is about the one who didn't, I mean, a simply person that really had nothing to do with it.

So, as far as I've read, a group of players are against giving explanations about someone's ban (but still, those "clan mods" would tell their friends.....) . However my experience also tells me that a big majority would like to know if someone is an alt for safety purposes. So, I'll like to ask: Which type of information should mods tell us and shouldn't they tell us?

I just like to add that I do support telling the person if someone is an alt or not, but I am completely against giving out names. It is against that person privacy and I don't see how it does any good. I mean, if he made it for troll purposes the rules already allow mods to permaban that account, but if he didn't, then I'll ask again: Why giving out names?

Maybe that person just wanted to relax away... be an unknown, a kind of "incognito mode".

I agree with the right to know who is the alt without revealing who is his original account.
and i dont agree with your first idea about players not related to the case that are asking about the punished players

If you agree with the second one, you are really agreeing with the first one....

Since they are not related, by following that logic the public players shouldn't know if someone is an alt or not.

Now, if we implement it that the public can know whatever action is made, they can know both if someone's an alt or if someone's got banned and why.

What I've proposed is just a type of mid-point: Which stuff should we know? Which stuff shouldn't we?

I do agree with this, I talked with a mod like 2 days ago about this and I asked him if it wasn't weird that the community has to follow the rules, but that there weren't rules for mods. The mod I spoke to corrected me in that conversation and told me there were rules for mods. I told him that was weird because they werent published, he anwsered with that these rules were published only not in public forums or on the public rules, they were published in mod forums. Which means only the admins and mods can see those rules. When I heard that I didn't really understand why they werent able for us to read. Because what if a moderator mute/bans you but you could complain about his actions because he didnt make those actions due the ''mod rules''.

Because of that the only reason I could think of was, the reason these rules arent published is because if the rules were published we could go against wrong actions and get our rights. But because this isnt published we cant do this and we just have to rely on the mods actions.

In my opinion this is pretty weird because in almost every online-game there are rules for the community AND the moderators so people could report if the moderators did something bad or just abused it.

In the last post, mods almost unanimous agreed that they do give explanations when asked, except for Desu. So I guess we are free to recall those words every time we ask for explanation, and it will be given.

Except me? Of course moderators give explanations when it's needed. However, you cannot assume it's needed every time. The rest of my statements are in the other thread. I only made one post in that thread, and refrained from replying to the rest as you had your answer. I suspect I won't be posting on this thread again either.

And you keep alluding our own interaction(s) in your posts. From your last thread:

I am talking about forcing a mod to give explanations about their actions.

Oh yes, so you can keep bugging me about upvoting someone's post? I'm assuming this is what you're reacting to.





If your posts are not about that, then what situation are you angry about? Which moderator hasn't answered you about a wrong doing you've done? Obviously we tell you. I've definitely told you after I've warned/muted you(and anyone else) and you or others pr'd me asking what they did wrong.

OT: @ the clan mods part, I'm definitely against moderators telling their clan mates who reported them etc. Sort of unethical to do that. For clan wars I don't see a problem with telling who is an alt, and who they are. If someone is just playing a normal game it'd be fine to ignore them.

I just hear that we can nominate players for be moderators. Why is this information not public yet lol.

So, as far as I know the community can suggest players for PotS and moderator position.... I'll like to ask if is the same for POTY, Supporter, Dj, Reporter... lol.

you see... those type of information should've compiled somewhere. Maybe a type of official mod thread where they publish resolutions or something...

Who was stopping you from nominating players all this time?

The fact that I didn't knew I could. LOL

There already is an incognito mode.

When they go to the toilet(before going AFK) they should tell us.
