Stan Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 This isn't a report, so feel free to move this or tell me privately where I should post this but I felt this is appropriate. Just as a recruit I know I can't say much however I feel one thing is noticeable and should be mentioned and that is the use of the Abuse Reports. Yes, they do their job and I find them to be very effective. However, I find that an admin sees that they were reported by a fellow member or a regular and get insulted or offended by it. In retaliation most will try hard to catch the individual doing something wrong, banning or some other action that is deemed appropriate and act a lot more "strict." This isn't me trying to pick at anyone, but if you are caught abusing by another member and reported for it, don't take it out on anyone. Think of it as being a way to keep you in check. It isn't a personal attack or any sort of sabotage to get rid of anyone's admin, it is meant to ensure most people are having fun and spammers get muted, hackers get banned, etc. Thank you admins, keep up the good work.

Watermelon Jackson Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 (edited) I see it like this Stan: Admin is not a power, it's a tool. Tools aren't made to hurt others necessarily, but rather to aid one in fulfillment of their duties. The duties of us as Members, Veterans, Managers, Leaders, Technical Council (*cough* JJK ftw *cough*), or what have you is to protect and watch over our servers and to prevent harm, not cause it. This goes double for us tool carryin' admins. Think of admin as laissez-faire economics, practice a hands-off unless necessary lifestyle regarding such. Then this way, abuse wouldn't even exist, and trust me, I took statistics. People should just leave people alone, and use admin for good, not for retardation. Although funny retardation in good spirit is warranted as long as there's limits...now excuse me I'm going to go eat a cupcake. EDIT: I'm no angel tho. Nobody's perfect Edited November 24, 2011 by Watermelon Jackson #iDecline Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mccaincracker Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 If anyone is ever afraid to report abuse for the sake of having beef with that admin, you're always welcome to private message a leader the abuse report. (division leader of whatever game you're playing) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimzy Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Don't fear me, Stannieboy! I don't hate anyone and I'm not one to go for revenge <3 Then again, I don't think you'd have to make an abuse report on my cause I tend to be too nice for people instead of too strict :3 Also, Mccain, good to know we can directly contact leaders with that problem if 'needed' x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilpest Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 If you're afraid of getting banned by an admin that you reported... don't play on the server with them... wait a few days if you're so scared... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan Posted November 25, 2011 Author Share Posted November 25, 2011 I'm not referring to myself in this, it's other members and regulars who tell me this. I'm just bring it up because I feel it is important to look at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
