' Wrote:I will need to talk to an admin or three before I can set this in stone, as I stated earlier my pet theory on this is to have the topic locked, cleaned and then re-opened, with the offending parties warned not to repeat their antics but I'd need to speak to either a mod or an Admin to find out how much their work load would increase if, in the worst case scenario, every single thread were to break into a flame war at once.
Oh and thank you for getting back to the topic at hand, it is much apreciated. It just goes to show how easy it is to be pulled off track and not realise.
Okay. So basically it boils down whether admins/mods will have time and whether they will find it reasonable. Fair enough. In this case let's wait for their reply first I'd say. Because regardless of the way this discussion goes it all comes down to one point.
Worst case scenario is actually a single thread breaking into flaming on several times as different people can start flaming in it one after another. Thus possibility growing exponentially. With flaming in such threads being sanction-able it also increases loadout on that part as well. Now that's a nightmare really. A mandatory one as you say. I'm starting to see less reasonable seed in there. While driven by good intentions, but also now seeing unhealthy ambitions (Judge Dredd syndrome) and I'm getting more skeptical about this.
Nothing else to add for now.
Quote:I think this is something the Mods should answer, not Del. =/
It's Del's proposal so I think it's ok to ask him about details of his proposal. Admins and moderators haven't said anything about this at all yet, so asking them about a proposal made by someone else for them doesn't sound right I'm afraid.
