Subject: Regular Members Get Banned While Identical Mythic Comment Doesn'...

Posted by: evilcam
Its odd then that I get more "complaints" about unfair bans from Legendary and Mythic members than I do from regular members. Even though I agree that regular members are banned muuuch more in terms of sheer numbers. The difference is, there are simply more regular members, so they are banned more often solely because there's like a million times as many regular members. Its odd to me, that the rations remain the same, but are inverse. There's something like 10,000:1 regular members to Mythic and Legendary members, but I get like 10:1 angry PMs from titled members compared to regular members.

I don't know if mythics are given additional slack. I certainly don't give any. I suspect this conclusion came as the result of a biased anecdote. Though, as I said, I don't honestly know.
It is also possible that moderators are more lenient with people who haven't had offences in the past vs high offenders correct? Staying ban free for a certain amount of time is a significant factor (already been debated to death in it's proper thread) for titles.

Is there anything wrong with that?

Recon is so mad.

If you don't care about titles so much, then just ignore the thread ;)

No, there isn't. I was mentioning that, as it could the largest factor for the leniency shown by different moderators.

Woah, that's actually a really good idea to stop all this complaining. Although, I don't like the sound of it, because it's such a lame excuse/complaint to begin with.

If we didn't have a potential site revision coming, I would seriously ask that the ninja be set to NOT see titles or colored bars to prevent this sort of BS whining.

I agree entirely.

Maybe if people stopped complaining about different titles being treated differently and just focused on following the rules, besides I'm sure that a lot of my post from when I was a regular/heroic member could have gotten me a ban or warning even if I didn't get one for those replies.

Tired, not mad.

I am tired of being called biased. I am tired of having people claiming personal vendettas on the part of my colleagues when I see frequent "did I over/under react" topics in HFCS where we all act as sounding boards, critical reviews and attempt to make every effort possible to be as fair, consistent and professional a team as possible while still being human beings who have fun.

So no. I not mad. I tired. Tired of members who can't seem to get it right blaming anyone but themselves for their own inability to stay unbanned.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

I agree with what Evilcam said, there are very few Mythics and generally people who are Mythics do not normally break rules and have a good reputation. And the mods will be more lenient to people who rarely commit any offences which I think it fair. Sometimes we make mistakes and we say things that got misinterpreted.

I think Evilcam hit the nail on the head, its the sheer ratio of people which make it seem as if there is "favoritism."

I will say some times I have seen more well know memebers appear to get away with some things, but its not the title I look at, its the name. And sometimes I go back, and I see they didn't get away with it.

I've been banned and deserved it, I think the majority of us agree that 95% of bans are just, and not biased. Although it seems like half the people that are banned are angry that someone got away with the same thing, or mods goof around as well, when they should stick to the rules if it matters to them.

Know that members do appreciate the time and effort that mods sacrifice on their own accord.

@Helveck

Just an Average Joe...

You made Recon angry. You wouldn't like it when he's angry...

But seriously OP... It's not an issue even though you perceive it that way. Not only has this dead horse been beaten into a find pulp over the years, no conclusive evidence has ever come from an always pointless debate.

It's impossible to ignore when some base member regulars here seem to make a thread on it every other day. It's also really annoying because it seems to be impossible to explain how much it doesn't make a difference or matter.

No offence HOOBLA, but I have to tell you that you make these sort of threads way too often and they never hold any real... substance... to them and only seem to frustrate.

It was a joke in reference to that other silly thread.

It's a metaphor for the 07s' lack of identity. too old to be newfa­g, yet too new to be oldfa­g, we wander b.net in search of a home, forever trying to be something we are not.

I feel like you have made this same type of thread several times Hoobla. Or perhaps all of them just blend together eventually.

Regardless. I disagree, I've been banned, I been warned. Albeit infrequently but that's just because I don't act like a jerk on here.

The time I was banned I deserved it. The time I was warned I guess the warning was unnecessary but that just further disproves your point.
