Clarification please

[Guest ameliaUK]

Can we please have some clarification from the devs/mods please about what topics are allowed on forum to be discussed? I understand there are ToS which are interpreted by people differently, and the deletion of some threads but not others suggests the rules aren't understood by users or applied by the mods.

 

I'm sure this would help to avoid the very obvious conclusion that certain people get threads pulled just because they don't like them.

Well it is the same for just about every game forum on the net.

 

3 things to avoid in most game forums are

 

1. Sex

2. Politics

3. Religion

 

In the case of 3dxchat the sex stuff is allowed if its legal. That is about it in a nutshell. 

[Guest ameliaUK]

Then why are some topics allowed and not others, even if they 'break' these rules?

 

I'm not discussing admin actions, just the rules that precede those actions.

I visited the 3dx Help profile here on forums and it says:

It is interesting how some people are able to quote from the TOS yet they don't exactly jump out at you when you go looking - I had a nose just now and drew a blank before deciding life's too short.

 

Anybody have a direct link to them?

How nice for you.

number one, paying respects to someone isnt against the tos. the fact that he was a preacher means nothing. If someone pays respects to a singer and that singer was a known drug user, does that mean the thread was about drug use? of course it doesnt.  

 

I can tell you 100 percent from my time here if you start a topic discussing a nations flaws or otherwise, it will be removed. If i started a thread called why the UK cant even get brexit right, would it be removed, of course it would. 

I would be very happy if you would start such a thread and I will 100% agree with you on that

Found this:-

 

2.02. Insults, personal attacks, abuse or harassment are not tolerated on any level.

[Guest Ciera]

Do we start a he said it first, no she did type thing now?

[Guest Ciera]

Also this:-

 

2.09. Slandering users or posting false information about users in all game chats and channels is prohibited.

Yes but that's conveniently ignored when it matters, like DaddysGirl's suggestion that we have mental issues.

Like when you claim RobT is a moderator here?

Like when you claim RobT is a moderator here?

Or when RobT accuses me of having alts?

Like you do in almost every topic you post Ciera?

[Guest Ciera]

Who called you a pig? I didn't I called you an oik and a scrote. Anyway you confirmed my view that you now want a he said it first, no she did thing. I think anybody who has read any threads where you, and your funny little friends, have attacked someone know what came first.

 

You have a routine you use, everytime. When you see it it's blindingly obvious.

[DaddysGirl]

Really Ciera and Amelia it's going to be ok. I promise.

 

[Guest ameliaUK]

What is clear from recent threads - and I'm not apportioning blame to anyone here - and I also know this was discussed previously elsewhere - but it's clear that if the OP could moderate threads that would help keep things focused and avoid the tantrums and slanging matches.

 

I know that might go against the concept of a balanced discussion, but there is no discussion to be had when some users deliberately set out to derail threads or win moral victories over people they hate.

[Guest Ciera]

I thought I'd link to this

 

http://3dxforum.com/index.php?/topic/6260-forums/page-4Post # 64

 

"What we are seeing here is a small group of people deliberately derailing threads, often by misconstruing what the original poster says, then causing such a drama that the mods have no alternative but to delete the whole thread when one of the people derailing the thread complains. When someone stands up for themselves and loses their rag the people derailing the thread use that as a chance to get that person banned, sometimes permantently."

 

Not that I'm that keen on quoting myself.

 

I think it's a good answer to why other peoples threads get deleted. You also make sure yoru most obnoxious spoutings appear in the threads you want to get deleted.

 

As I say, it's so obvious when you see it.

No user in any capacity has the power to have posts or threads removed the only power a user has is the tools given, report and ignore.  It's reported and the Devs decide from there.  It's clear that they don't care if it's one page or 100 on a thread.  If they feel it violates the rules they remove it.  If you don't like what the Devs do the Devs could tell you don't use the forum, don't post, don't like. 

[Guest Ciera]

Thanks for mansplaining that - Isn't this thread more about the TOS, where they are found and how they can be interpreted?

[Mar Mohan]

Mansplaining (a blend of the word man and the informal form splaining of the verb explaining) means "to explain something to someone, characteristically by a man to woman, in a manner regarded as condescending or patronizing

It's not difficult to understand the Users on this forum same as in game have nothing to do with what actions are taken it's up to the Devs and the Devs alone.

If you're unsure you might break a rule then contact them on here before you post.
 

[Guest Ciera]

You get how I'm using it? The second bit - patronising and condescending? No surprises if you don't, most people will get exactly what I'm saying.

[Mar Mohan]

Don't insult my intelligence.  I put it there for those who may not have heard the term.

When I mentioned that we should do a more farm like thing to lour women, I did not mean call people cows, pigs or old McDonalds, cause you know he had a farm.
