Requesting to comment on reports and appeals.

I feel like you should have to request to add to a report or an appeal to a staff member. It will stop people from doing what I did earlier today (mess around in a report that I had nothing to do with). I don’t see a reason not too do this. I would like to hear other thoughts on this because this would definitely help the community in a small specific way.

thank you.

 

I don’t see why it’s necessary. If a staff member sees someone post something unrelated or without relevant information, they’ll warn the person not to and that person will either learn or get a warning / forum ban.

I agree it seems to happen every thread and that can be annoying but adding another layer of red tape / process to the mix doesn’t seem like the solution, but I applaud your effort to find one because I absolutely agree it is a recurring issue.

 

i can tell you now, this wont be accepted although id like to hear what kind of sytem you propose, you didnt really give much detail.

regardless, it wont happen because 1) it means extra work for the staff when their efforts are more importantly spent on the servers

also people might not request permission to post because they either dont think its important enough to go bother a staff member, or they cant be bothered/ cant get hold of anyone and then important info towards a verdict may be missed out. quite often people do acctually have something to add even though they arent involved , theres just trolls like you think think getting warning points and bans are funny, but people like that can be dealt with quickly and effortlessly so if they wanna seek attention with bans, they can go ahead :shrug:

 

Fair points, but I don’t see why anyone should be able to post on appeals without permission. Having someone discredit your appeal while not having anything to do with it can be upsetting as well as someone making fun of the fact that you got banned, should not be allowed.

 

if you're gonna be toxic, don't stick your head up your ass and pull a reverse card and suggest some stupid fucking shit like this @Scrungy if I ever see some shit like this again, itll be the last time you speak

 

I thought this would be a good idea because of how common it is for people (like me) that tend to fuck around a lot to post on serious shit like reports. But ok.

 

Or you could read the rules of the report forum before you comment some nonsensical shit for no reason.

I'm just sayin. There's literally an entire thread about it at the top.

This is the exact reason.

Just don't do it. Think before you post.

 

I like where this post went. I had an idea and thought that there really wasn’t much to discredit it but I was wrong and I really appreciate the criticism.

 

you should have thought, before you accepted becoming a lead :eyes:

 

yeah lemme apply for adivsor +1

 

1. extra work for staff
2. makes the reporting process harder for the reportee/reporter
3. trolling on reports is funny and based, and those willing to do it anyway regardless of the potential forum infraction should be able to do so for the sake of our entertainment

 

You received the consequences for doing it, so you'll never do it again.

 

have you tried just not breaking the forum rules

 

I did it like 8 times so I doubt he’ll not do it again.

 

i dont even get why its funny, like its not even about breaking the rules, some rule breaking can be funny, but posting on an appeal/report when you arent meant to? whats the humour there? then again i dont find "memes" funny so i guess that says alot about the difference in humour between me and 99% of sgm

 

Wow guys look at how cool, rebellious, and contrarian Dazza is haha doesnt find memes funny!! Haha good one, you showed the man!! You are a paragon of originality!!
