Vs battles wiki pet peeves

Status
Not open for further replies.
so six years is the statute of limitations, good intel.
 
My pet peeve is that Staff Reports aren't handled in the RVR (Barring reports that involve sensitve topics as I think those should be handled in private regardless of whether or not the user is a staff member). Otherwise, if its just a staff member behaving poorly in a thread, I think it should be treated the same as all other reports.

To liken the idea to a real-life concept, most socially developed countries have "open-to-the-public" court hearings, even if the case involves a member of government.

While I can see your point, but at the same time I don't really like public report systems even if it isn't a mod considering those rather just sets up public humiliation and just makes it harder for us to evaluate their behavior. Think of it like being sent to the principal's office for your behavior and yet those are all private situations.

court hearings don't have the peanut gallery that feel it is fine to dogpile in said courtroom. Unfortunately, we do.

also most court cases are handled outside of court or before they reach court

so they aren't really public until the police declassify what information they have

I feel it's often overlooked just how bizarre it is that we handled rule violation reports in a public thread. I don't know of any other forum that does that.
 
Related to the CGM talk, it is really important to point out the nature of their role. AFAIK CGMs only evaluate whether calculations are mathemathically correct or not. But whether those calculations are valid for use in scaling and being used in profiles is a different matter entirely. CGMs can still participate in those discussions obviously, but it's not their sole role to decide which calc is gonna be used or not.
Hence, a CRT is still necessary to be able to use calcs in profiles. It's a distinction between evaluating math and evaluating scaling with the verse's context.

to an extent, yeah.

if a Calc Group member recognizes that something in the calc is fucky even aside from a purely mathematical context, they can refuse it. This could take the form of a lot of things, of course, but I've known people to try to discuss scaling in a calc, and it's a valid enough statement for a Calc Group member to say "this wouldn't scale like that, so what you've calculated is wrong". For example, calculating an explosion to get a durability value for a character wouldn't make sense, given that the character only tanked a portion of said explosion. A CGM would be within their rights to shoot that shit down right in the comments.

otherwise, well put. very well put.

Not really the same thing me thinks, though I guess I could’ve worded it better. To reiterate, only reason why I said they should be handled out in the open is because that’s the current standard for everyone else.

Your point is about whether or not public reports in general are a good idea, mine is about the difference between a staff getting reported, and a regular user getting reported.

The idea is that all reports, regardless of user rank, should be handled the same. (Excluding what I mentioned previously)

1. Punk is just half of Cyberpunk.
2. Blade runner is one of the most famous works of fiction in the Cyberpunk genre.
3. It’s starring Ryan Gosling

You guys sincerely overestimate how much the wiki cares abt its users’ personal lives.

You're right I'm a serial killer. 🔥🔥

In all seriousness tho, most people know me for saying deranged things in public makes you wonder about the stuff I don't talk about. And refuse to.

Not even Batman can get my actual secrets out of me

nah, they shouldn't. delicate situations require a more delicate handling. staff shit is almost always delicate shit. s'pose there's something to be said about super petty reports- calc group members being reported for being a meanie is probably a RVR valid situation, if you ask me- but most staff reports are dumpster fires that need better handling.
