Thread: *Suggestion* Warning Method

    Cool *Suggestion* Warning Method

    This is a Legit Title with Legit Centering

    Since the dawn of time there was Pr2... And Dragons. Oh, and people who like to break rules because women love bad-boys. Anyway, I just thought I would suggest a change in the moderator warning methods. As we all know the typical mod will warn someone for swearing, spamming, and just being rude to others and the warnings go 1,2,3. After that counting lesson they get a nice 60 second ban to remind people how many seconds are in a minute and a little scratch of a record on their IP address and username. As the IP or username accumilates more bans the mods start being less lenient and start giving higher bans because they want to make sure you know how many seconds are in an hour, day, week, month, and 4.6 years or whatever. Nice people trying to teach you stuff :3

    Anyway, now that you all tl;dr that and should or should not know how the banning system works I will finally start explaining my suggestion! Have you ever seen people complain about how they don't see the rules or how the rules arn't defined well enough to understand them? Or have you ever seen that one sneaky rascall who acts up until a mod is around, accumilates 2-3 warnings, then stops until the mod leaves then starts doing it all over? Well Idc if you have or not because I certainly have and it's ridiculous and annoying and i'm sure mods are sick of it aswell. I think the whole 3 warning system is all dried up with so many loop holes for people to work around that it's inefficient and doesn't get rid of these headaches. So, I popped a few Advil and 2 months later I came up with this idea and I got really bored so I thought I might actually log onto JV just to share it with a bunch of people who don't care! I think Pr2 should be switched over to a single warning system. How I suggest it be done is that when the mods smack someone with that warning it will be an instant first time 60 second long warning that opens a tab on Pr2 itself (don't give anyone popups in their browser Mr. Jiggmin) and that tab should be filled with an in-depth set of rules that the user can click out of at any time. At this point the user was confronted with the rules and if he/she/taco acts out again they have no excuse and can continue right on to the ban-waggon.

    In the little comment section below I would like you guys to discuss how poorly made this thread is and how bad of an idea it is... Unless ofcourse you like it then feel free to donate me your soul. Or just comment.

    This is the tl;dr version: Stop being lazy, reading is good for you.

    That's how I roll, I didn't expect this to get more than 10 views and 1.5 replies so I goofed off a lot because why not xD

    I think there should be rules at the top next to you pms, chat, players, and account. And when you get warned it takes you to the page and it has link of definitions and stuff.

    TL;DR - Forget the warnings and make it a 60 second warning and open up a page that shows the rules. If rule breaking continues, then ban the big numbers.

    Good idea. But I think the biggest problem is ban evaders and copycat spammers. I have several ideas for dealing with these, including...

    - After creating an account, you have to wait 10 minutes before you can chat. Why are new players in such a rush to chat with everyone and PM them anyway? They just found the game, they should be busy racing. We can slow down ban evaders much better this way.

    - We need a better autoban system. Users should only be allowed one message every 2-3 seconds, and they should only be allowed to send a message every 10 seconds if they copy and paste something into the chat bar. Shorter chats, or inputting the same message multiple times should also increase the amount of time you must wait to chat again. Nobody needs to send a message every second and a half anyway, and 80% of people don't even type that fast.

    - Stricter bans for intentional offenders. When someone breaks the rules on accident (90% of the time this is someone using broken chat) they should be given a warning, but if someone rank 20 starts spamming, or someone has seen someone get warned for an offense, then commits that same offense themselves, they should be given a day ban regardless of how small the offense is. Yes, it's strict, but the problem isn't the offense itself, but rather the behavior it encourages. If someone gets booted off PR2 for a day for spamming, they won't do it again. Besides, what are they even spamming for in the first place?

    Well, I think the 1, 2, 3 system works. Maybe after a 3rd warning the rules thing could show up.
    WICKED is good

    How about we just leave it where it is at and not make jiggmin go and change all the warning systems!

    That's why we started using two warnings, then the hour ban.

    What if I want to talk to my friends, who I recently invited? (Witch I do every once in a while) It would be much harder to do so then. Also I type way faster then a message every 2-3 seconds most of the time.. ._.

    3 seconds can be some time. A lot of people type fast (Although makes a lot of mistakes). Anyways the problem is this:
    1: Get 2 warnings
    2: Wait till mod leaves
    3: Do the same thing you did when you got warned.
    A different mod comes
    (Same thing Over and over again from step 1-3)
    Need to fix this...

    Then let them talk in private chats or something. But allowing people to chat in main when they've just created an account is why ban evaders are so successful at causing mayhem.

    Yea mods using warning 2 doesn't work well because this is hwat they reply with.

    NoodlesYUM:What the Hell ever happened to Warning 1
    NoodlesYUM: You stupid mods don't know what you're doing!!!!
    blazeth: hi
    Karlene: Hey Blaze!!! c:
    NoodlesYUM: I likkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkke nooooodles
    Hipponator has banned NoodlesYUM for 1 hour. Reason: hi This ban will expire in never.

    Or tell Jiggmin to change the programming, so that the first warning will be a 30 second ban from chat. Second warning 60, then ban.

    Although the 3 second idea of waiting before you can enter another message in is clever, I personally feel that it doesn't benefit me. I usually make a long post in chat, and as a result, I am not able to finish what I'm saying with the little amount of space of the number of characters that you put in at one time. What I do is finish the sentence in a second post, and sometimes, I can type that up really quickly. If there was a 3 second time wait, then several lines of chat have past before I can able to complete my thought, and some people will have no idea what I'm talking about.
