Rule Violation Reports (New forum)

I have been sent some additional screenshots pointing towards their actual stance on the wiki.
I have attached them here for completion.

Unless he deliberately start destabilizing the wiki and/or start problems on site in regards to this, I frankly don't care what he comments off site.

I do think it's important to consider their intentions too.

It may be that they're only here to troll us, and their comments offsite suggest that may be the case.
Having watched his comments on various threads, he has yet to reflect trolling behavior. Instead, he has actually participated in discussions.

I may have missed something tho.

Indeed, it may also just be that they're particularly dramatic, which we definitely have seen.
For the record: I am also in support of a week ban, but I wouldn't be upset if it was longer.

not to draw off topic I will take the 1 week ban. I accept any punishment you give. Should have worded it better then I did no taking it back so just best just to up hold my beliefs and move on with past mistakes.

anyways. Time will show the truth in the matter
 
I disagree personally. Worse he did was called someone an idiot and a clown.
They also called people "rats", and did not seem remorseful or willing to change in the slightest in this report.
if you think its a "insult" i think your siding with rats and not worth to talk to
 
That is not remotely acceptable behaviour though. We generally try to heavily discourage that kind of hostility here. 🙏
A 1 week ban doesn't achieve this? When we have given warning for comparatively worse behavior than name calling.

They also called people "rats", and did not seem remorseful or willing to change in the slightest in this report.
The second part is why I advocated for a ban at all. And it's also not entirely true, he did accept the ban.

Like, 1 month ban for petty insults? Doesn't sit well with me when we have given warnings for severely worse behavior (like fujiwara unironically and straight on site advocating for the alienation and persecution of a user because they find him disgusting). Like keep in mind, in all the threads he has participated, this is the worse behavior displayed. 1 week ban is enough imo.

pedophiles as weII, muItipIe times, if I might add, they refer to the whoIe site as being fiIIed with pedophiIes, I dont think that is just an insuIt to a singIe user or thread anymore.
Off site. Didn't once brought that up on site (unless on PM, which I can't see). People can say whatever they want in their own privacy, and the fact you keep bringing this up makes me think there's more at play here.

not reaIIy, that pedophiIe one was an SS someone sent me on discord. If something made you think that I have an aIterior motive here because of how I used the SS, I apologize, but I do not have much experience with user reports except maybe once or twice before, so I might have been deemed as acting hurriedly or something due to my inexperience with this stuff 🙏

If they tried using that to harass someone on site, then we would take it more seriously. But as is, it's just salty comments from someone that disagree with how we handle things. It's completely irrelevant in the grand scheme of things.

If he had otherwise said that on site, that's a different story.
 
While Rider's comments about VSBW are largely offsite, I think it can be considered a form of harassment to, when you are being disagreed with in a CRT, head to Reddit to call your opposition pedophiles. Mixed with the pretty cruel shit he said onsite, and a general disposition to not accept that he had done wrong, declaring that all he was doing was entirely above board, paints a dreadful picture.

Without the offsite intel, I probably would have just shot for a topic ban. With it, I think it should be a full ban, and for a longer period, as rarely do instances of toxicity reach such a boiling point, much less with such a remorseless demeanor. I would therefore propose 1-2 months. If readjustment is achievable on their end by that time, then all the better.
 
pedophiles as weII, muItipIe times, if I might add, they refer to the whoIe site as being fiIIed with pedophiIes, I dont think that is just an insuIt to a singIe user or thread anymore.
Taking a closer look: These scans don't seem to be made in response to the thread at all. They were made several months ago. (1 of them close to a year ago)

So this part of Bambu's evaluation seems incorrect:
when you are being disagreed with in a CRT, head to Reddit to call your opposition pedophiles

Edit: Whether that changes the verdict I leave up to you, but got mentioned to me and felt it important to note.
 
If the calling of tensura fans pedophiles occurred five months ago, I still don't think that changes much. He disagreed with them and so spouted off that they were legitimate, disgusting criminals- I don't really care that it happened awhile back.
Just a question here... is there really any consideration of how long ago such behaviour occured when it comes to punishing them?
In other words: is there any set duration we give (regarding the duration between the time such behaviour occured and the present time here and now) where, after that set duration, we could consider that such behaviour in the past has at least POSSIBLY changed before we punish them for said behaviour in the present here and now?
Additionally, are there rule breaches that are permanently punishable (presumably with an equally permanent punishment such as a lifelong/permanent ban) regardless of how long ago they have occured (akin to atrocity crimes in real life)? If so, should they be stated/clarified in the rules pages?
 
There's no formal statute of limitations, no. When considering a violation, we may say that their activities were long enough in the past that we can look past them, functionally achieving the same result, but even then, five months is no time at all.

So, short answer: time is relevant, but there is no hard rule on the subject, no set point before which your actions are inherently forgiven.

I would not ask for a "duration where actions are automatically forgiven after said duration has passed", but I was wondering more about whether there is a "duration after which discussion of lifting of punishment for actions is possible (NOT guaranteed unless the perpetrator has shown evidence that they are unlikely to repeat such actions)"... but from the sound of it, as you say, there is no set duration for either case. (I would disagree that five months is an insignificant amount of time, but given the severity of Rider's actions, I would agree that 2+ months is necessary at best.)

Also, there's still the second part of my question (sorry, but I still do want to double check about this):
Additionally, are there rule breaches that are permanently punishable (presumably with an equally permanent punishment such as a lifelong/permanent ban) regardless of how long ago they have occured (akin to atrocity crimes in real life)? If so, should they be stated/clarified in the rules pages?
I do think we might need to specify more clearly which actions are permanently punishable and thus usually leading to the permanent ban of the perpetrators as well as what sorts of punishments are expected in general for quite a few of the prohibited actions....

While I find the suggestion useful, could you move this instead to Bambu's wall and/or PMs so as to not spam the thread?
 
Avoiding cluttering/derailing the thread too much while also notifying staff at the same time regarding what me and Mr Bambu have discussed along with Lephyr's suggestion and Bambu's advice using short replies:
I created a thread with Mr Bambu's permission, perhaps the staff could offer their input?

(Please feel free to delete this most recent message of mine if necessary for the sake of not derailing the thread, I just hope the thread is acknowledged and the staff can provide their insight/input/opinions, please and thanks once again.)
 
I think @Zeona201 bears reporting too tbh, this is their very first post on the thread and it was immediately to stir up drama - and has only continued since then.

Tjdwo was being very toxic, I agree, I just also don't think it helps when you literally join the wiki and the first thing you do is this

Edit: As it turns out, even their very first post on the wiki as a whole was like this
Zeona’s behavior was kinda toxic, I agree on that,but it was probably in defense of me, as me and a few others were talking about his behavior in our type-moon group.

not saying that excuses anything, just bringing context. and they’ve had an account since 2023, so it’s unlikely they made an account JUST to attack Tdjwo, if you get the idea.

This doesn't even seem warning worthy imo, they haven't broken any rules. That also wasn't their first post, this was.

That's a blunder on my end, because I didn't see there was still the "Show Older Items" option. I don't think he made the account just to do this, no, but a deeper look shows that this is actually his very first message in the Nasuverse General Discussion Thread - and that doesn't bode well at all.

Instances of making fun of other people's scaling, for one

And of course, while I'm not saying Tdjwo was being toxic (quite the opposite, he was being super toxic and deserves the report), Zeona responded in kind to it. Frankly, there's been a lot of this between Tdjwo and Zeona, and also Wankbreaker, as of recently - and I'd ask that the thread be moderated as a result
 
I've posted on the thread but I will state it here:

I have given a formal warning to @Tdjwo for his behavior. Continued behavior of the like can be discussed for topic, thread, or full bans. I've also told Wank and Zeona to not engage in that sort of behavior, even to rebuff the opposer; I agree Zeona's behavior is a bit toxic in its own right, and I do not intend to babysit the situation. Further infractions to this end on their behalf should be met with a warning as well.
