My bad
Tbf, no staff bother to inform you have a topic ban for TR threads have been applied as I don’t see one on your message wall although they are usually busy on their part so.
Sorry, I’ll just stop talking in threads from now on
I blocked them for 3 months, as they seemed more clueless than malicious, but I may have been too lenient.
@Marshadow29 has been posting in the Nasuverse General Discussion Thread. For context see above where he received a topic ban that would last until 8/3/2023.
I agree. Unfortunally, he went and made this thread, which is an extremely thinly veiled atempt at evading a thread ban as far as I see. I mean, he even stopped trying to hide it at some point, and this one is obviously an atempt at getting ratings up.
Why does that matter?
Sorry to intrude, but after check the calculations and discussions I believe the problem was that their calculations had problems, weren't good enough or needed some improving but despite thay speedster spammed the walls of several calc members before they could do something with them.
I don't understand why this is considered thread ban evasion.
I would agree that creating a thread to tier the verse while under topic ban is an evasion of said topic ban, even if phrased in a sideways manner.
It's a thread for pure discussion, about a topic already spoken about in the discussion thread. Another member talking about a 1-b scan for nasu, and linked the luminary's profile. I have no intention of making any crts ( the most that was going to happen would've been another member would use that scan for the upgrade. I was only looking for outside opinion on if the claim had any validity ( for the record, i was not the first to suggest this rating either, if you bothered to scroll through)
exactly this. I wasn't the only one discussing the topic , or the first either
In this case it would be thread ban evasion because part of his original bad quality threads that got him banned were related with that sort of argument that pushed so high characters, and he was also one of the individuals stonewalling other bad quality threads (called like that by botj the reliable users that participated in them and staff) from other users with similar views as him that were pushing for the same things as he did in his own threads. So this is indeed a way to evade his thread ban.
But you are the one with a thread ban for threads like this, so if is a genuine doubt that many share then it would had be better to let them make the threads instead of you who have a record with this topics.
Because some calcers have things in motion that people who eagerly go to rush evaluations for mess up
As a reminder, you probably shouldn't be posting calculations in blogs if they aren't done for this exact reaction. Any user can make any number of sandboxes by messing with their profile's URL, if a calc isn't finished it can easilt be put there until ready for evaluation.
I know people who have been here longer than me who just found out what a sandbox is. We don't even have distinct rules on how to make a sandbox. You've never seen a blog with sandbox in the title, people thinking their blogs are sandboxes?
We live in the era where occasionally it can take months to get a cgm just to click your blog, much less evaluate it, much less evaluate it twice
It doesn't need to be something against the rules, it needs to be something pointed against
Against, in principle. It can be rude, but I don't think we ought to punish people for pursuing evaluations on calcs.
We do, from Editing Rules
That text is in Standard Format for Character Profiles, and probably a few other places, too.
I think we do actually consider blogs to be everyone's to be used. Lina Shields deleted most of his ~140 calc blogs 6 years ago, and less than a month later, the blogs were restored by other staff members. I think that decision's good; we shouldn't let people hamper verses from being accurate.
I know that I, at least, am far more willing to evaluate blogs that I've already evaluated. I think many other CGMs are the same.
That makes it against the rules.
I can’t speak for Majinere, but in my specific situation, it’s increasingly aggravating to have people not only stalk my page waiting for me to post a calc, but spam my wall asking for updates when I made it clear that I was completely offline for a couple of days due to IRL stuff. To add on, I specifically asked Speedster not to distribute my calc to CGMs and he went on and did it anyways, and when I expressed why I was annoyed, he just linked some website titled ”Benefits of Not Giving Up” not showing any sign of remorse.
