Quote from: Rocketman287 on December 24, 2014, 04:12:24 PMHybrid, and I agree with heavy emphasis on the 2 rules listed below. Personal Attacks and Graphic Content. People shouldn't have to worry about their personal beliefs or lives being attacked. And they shouldn't have to deal with harassment either.QuoteRespect fellow members, or at least tolerate them publicly. Harassment and personal attacks are not tolerated in any manner on Sep7agon.net, and will be dealt with appropriately. This does not only include attacks regarding one's religious beliefs, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, mental capacity, but also extends to continued and unwanted bothersome behavior. The site staff will look at each case individually and determine the best course of action.Look at this guys, Rocket claims to be against harassment, but has been harassing me in multiple threads today. Just making sure you all know who we hired as monitor http://sep7agon.net/index.php?topic=19111.0

Speaking of Monitors (Kind of) - if you have suggestions as to what you'd like to see the Monitor's role become, feel free to post them as well.

I mean, how they are now they're close to useless. Because how they are now, nobody has to respect them.
In the case of "shitposting," obviously spam is banable but the style of shitposting that some of us have kinda formed is just posting threads with the intention of being funny/silly/clever. I see nothing wrong with that.

I see nothing wrong with that.Problem is, most of these aren't funny or clever.

I think it's a little ridiculous that there were only 57 votes, can't even be considered a majority

So we'll just work with what we've got.But given the fact that there's, what, like 700 or more registered accounts on here? I understand that a large majority of those are probably alts and people who just made an account and don't post, but still. Personally I would take into consideration that a lot of people probably didn't vote because of something to do with the holiday season.
Mod team could use a shake-up. Chiefly: Fire Kiyo for conduct unbecoming of a moderator.

Isn't that kind of... you know, an egregious abuse of power? Assuming that actually happened.

Assuming that actually happened.There were still holes in the Anonymous posting at that time and I wasn't exactly clear on the whole "don't tell people who the anons are" thing with the mods. Some of that was my fault and yeah, a lot of it was on Kiyo.In the end I didn't think it was bad enough to be taken off the moderation team completely, especially since she's actually a pretty good moderator.

Thanks to everyone for voting. The staff will be adapting a hybrid policy soon and will reveal details to you all when we can.

So, we've got around half of that.
