All right, it ain't reading the new copy, either.
Fucking... fuck.
Maybe it's just the fucking laser that's damaged. I'll look into it.
Xbox OG units have a history of laser-reader blockages. Just pop open the console and clean the lens.
i was wondering if the fact that it's modded would have anything to do with it probably not, but i'm scared to fuck with it

Yeah, that's what they said. Just, I associate "outburst" with, like... Deci-tier explosions, of which I haven't had any since, like... a long time. I was just responding to that word choice in my defense.

Actually, the stated reason for my not-having-been-chosen was simply because the staff was looking for "friendly faces"--and because I've only recently "cooled down" in terms of my general demeanor. They didn't say anything about my outbursts--of which I've had none of over the summer.
There might be more to it than that, of course--maybe some mods just straight-up don't like me, and that's fine--but that was the reason given by Psy in that thread.

I see the mods went above and beyond to do things. Good on them. Did any of them get banned?
Also, I should start up some Peace Walker soon.

I have the benefit of not really being bothered all too much by spoilers--even for games I'm a fan of.
just throwing that out there

Even giving the OP of a thread the power to view everyone's post, before they post them (to deem if they're okay), would be better than nothing. YouTube has this option, where your comment has to be approved by the uploader before it's public.
This way it mitigates the effect of an asshole.
I mean... I like that, too, but the trouble with that kind of system is that it wouldn't be very conducive to fluid discussion, and it may disincentivize some people from posting at all because the OP might take too long to look over the post.

I can see how the last part of my post could be a bad thing, though.
Is anyone else warming up to this mod/monitor for gaming idea, or is it just me?
A button that can collapse a user's post (complete with "Moderator action has been taken against this post. View at your own risk" message) would be the easiest way to combat this imo. This doesn't really oppose the idea of a forum-specific moderator, but with a combination of both ideas it would be more effective than what we have now.
Yeah, I don't know why I didn't think of that. I'm always too hung up on punishments, because I just resent these fuckers, but yeah, that's a... decent solution. The trouble is preventing it. If we have a particularly persistent case, like what we have tonight, how long can we rely on the mods to censor every single post (and in a timely manner)?... There has to be a preventative measure at some point.

Oh, I've had this idea for awhile. It's not like other forums don't do it--if anything, it's silly that we don't. A long time ago, I proposed that Meta should be a mod presiding over Serious. I still think he should, but he's AWOL right now.

When I opened this thread I literally crossed my fingers and wad like "please be dead, please be dead..."
I am disappoint son.
I was wondering if my title would have given off that tone

there was no force making me doing anything, i could see how important the game is to them and i did it regardless because their rage would be entertaining
I have to say, I like your honesty. But I mean, you're just making things worse for yourself.

What would you say a fair period of time would be? 4-6 months?
Too light. Cut their hands off, then they can never do it again.
He wasn't talking punishments there--he's talking the length of the grace period in which you would (ideally) be able to peruse the forum without fear of getting spoiled. I see Byrne's point: 6 months is a long time. 2-3 seems good enough, the more I think about it.

So there's no rule on spoilers? Just deleting them. Kinda weak imo
we're talking about it on septagon

« on: August 29, 2015, 06:34:40 PM »
Aye. This is probably a good idea to implement for new releases across the board. What would you say a fair period of time would be? 4-6 months?
I don't think it should really matter. No matter how old the media is there will still be people who haven't consumed it and care about spoilers.
Check the bold, underlined, and italicized word.

As for punishments, well, I really do think this would be tough to moderate unless you take intentions into account. Someone who forgets to put spoiler tags around something once shouldn't be punished the same as someone maliciously and deliberately throwing out spoilers. Perhaps +15 to +20 warning points for a first slip up and +50 to +60 (basically 2-day lite-ban) for someone malicious?
That all seems fair. I mean, I would ban them into Half-Life 3's release date if they were being malicious, personally, but whatever you think is right, I guess. I'd rather see SOMETHING done about it rather than nothing.

From the sounds of it no, but just being a general scumbag to most of these people.

http://sep7agon.net/index.php?topic=43271.msg865415#new^ Snake's MGS thread, currently being bombarded with spoilers by some prankster who thinks he's cute. So, I can't help but notice that there's nothing in the rules that explicitly prohibits posting unmarked spoilers. As a result, the individual who just ruined an upcoming game for at least four or five excited gamers will go unpunished, under this given ruleset. This is not okay. I don't want to hear anything about how "spoilers are harmless" or "it's just a game", or whatever. That would be missing the point. The point is, it's a malicious act of trolling--pissing people off, ruining their fun, and laughing at their expense. So, I propose the aforementioned missing rule--prohibit the posting of all unmarked spoilers. The user in question admits to intentionally spoiling the unreleased content for the sake of "being a dick" and being malicious, and he should be punished for it. Discuss potential punishments. Personally, I say fuck warnings--if you're gonna spoil something with malicious intent like that, it should be an outright and swift ban up to a fucking year. One week minimum. Unintentional spoilers can receive a little more clemency. Thoughts? edit: Oh, and concerning the potential for "fake" spoilers (because there's been slight confusion over the content's legitimacy): This should be treated with equal austerity--if not more. It's akin to shouting "FIRE" in a crowded theater. So it shouldn't go unpunished, either.

you guys cry about fucking spoilers i will give you a real one lol
So the butthurt is for nothing? FUCKING LOL
by "real" i assumed he meant "bigger" so and i'm not sure if i can think of anything less pathetic to derive entertainment from, tbh

shit whoopsie my hand slipped
Your hand accidentally slipped over the "post image" button/typed , then accidentally pasted the link to major spoilers.
It really isn't funny, Gats. Just an ass move.
dude this is a mgs discussion thread i was discussing an image
No just stop like, i don't even care--i'm not an MGS fan--but that's just not cool, man

Nowhere in this OP does it say "Nobody talk about the game until I've finished it".
It's unrealistic to expect people to read all 50 pages of this thread before posting.
Maybe you should have post that little nugget in the OP so people who come into what is essentially an MGSV general can know they aren't allowed to say anything at all about MGSV.
You wouldn't have cared to read/notice something like that. Get the fuck out of here. You did a shitty. Own up to it, Mr. Admin.

Spoiler Read spoilers.
The excuse for Quiet being almost naked is stupid as fuck and was obviously thrown in at the last second when the near universal opinion of her when she was shown off was that she looked trashy and pandering as hell.
Spoiler i actually read the spoiler, too
i was trying to AVOID speaking of my thoughts on it (eg. kojima is a liar and a cunt), because, as snake has requested numerous times, he doesn't want any expectations set up
you fucking mong

or just don't waste time purposefully getting offended, like a regular person why would i want to be like a regular person, especially if it hinders my ability to be critical and socially aware

« on: August 29, 2015, 04:53:06 PM »
i don't know what you mean by that
that finding things to have an issue with is pretty dumb
just play the game
don't be stupid it's possible, and advisable, to do both
