Infractions (Again Yes) But a poll too!

Im just wondering what people think about this.

Do you think a MOD who applies an infraction should make sure to do a little research by reading the thread to determine why the person they are applying the infraction to has performed the 'bad' action?

Or should they just look for a bad post and not try to understand why that post was made basically applying infractions blindly?

 

Exactly.

What is it with all these infraction posts ??

 

So the MOD shouldnt talk to the user to try to gain an understanding before applying an infraction ???

WOW that seems kinda harsh Shawn.

 

Is this kindergarden? I want my Crayons.

 

All im doing is trying to gain an understanding behind how it is acceptable to apply an infraction without looking into the situation at hand first.

Weather is reading the actual thread or talking to the user.

Sorry for yet ANOTHER infraction thread I just wanted to see the logic here thats all.

 

Kindergarden? You think im whining? Simply because Im asking a question and wondering why people shouldnt need to look into a situation to gain an understanding of it before applying the infraction...

Posting to this thread in the manner you have definitely depicts your maturity level.

Alrighty then. I guess I got my answer.

 

The logic is - follow the rules. If you get an undeserved infraction, then odds are, thats the only one you ahve and it doesnt hurt you anyway. If you have a bunch, then they probably arent undersreved.

Do you think the mods have time to conduct an investigation? Gimmie a break.

I said I wanted my crayons didnt I?

 

Ya but is it hard looking 4-5 posts before you apply it?

 

I think if RULES are not put around how the mods can apply an infraction then the system CAN and WILL be abused but hey forget that I said anything.

Hey I agree with you 100% that they would deserve most of them if it gets to the point of effecting them but i dont think this should discount the fact that they shouldnt be applied blindly.

 

You two have clearly never run a busy forum. Dont you think the mods have better things to do then run around and pick on you?

 

im not even argueing im just saying you should atleast read the page. You dont have to be all serious looking to give people infraction to prove your supurity or something. Joey show me your busyy forum..

 

Im busy with my crayons right now.

 

Ya give teh blue one an infraction

 

MWahahahahahahahaha that was pretty funny Guru.

I cant believe I got red repd for asking this question and told to grow up. All I did was ask a simple question. Jesus man it's like its the end of the world.

 

Nah, it stayed in the lines.

 

Mods shouldn't be mods if they don't have enough time to conduct their responsibilities properly. (takes a few seconds extra to read a few posts back from the "problem" post.)

If someone is trying to argue with another and that person says something back and a mod see's it, and has to give out an infraction, shouldn't it at least be applied to both users?

I feel a little reading is required, as Guru stated already, they could at least read a few posts back to be sure.
