So my thread "Morkens Diablo 3 Devs need Help" has been locked.
As it was locked on talk that did not even concern myself or the Ideas, you must, on principle let it live and just move all that argument text to another thread. After all, it was all instigated by someone else who had no interest in the Ideas at all.
How do you know that person(s) did not actively try to shut the thread down by continual argument knowing the principle of the actions of the blue angel guys? I mean, by leaving it closed are you not playing right into his hands? It is not right for the closure of a thread to be in the control of just anyone who knows how to cause those blue angel guys to shut the thread is it?
The devs can’t be making D3 anyway, they look like they spend their all time in the lunchroom!
Now, a friend of mine who is a cleaner at the Blizzard building informed me that it appeared a water leak had damaged computers and forced the programmers to move into the lunchroom...
And so the false prophet known as "Daemaro" tells me I have posted an insult?
Please fix this too...
Well, let me start by saying, it was locked because the thread was FULL of argument and spam from both you and others.
Even if it was instigated by someone else:
Quote from "Rules" »
If you see flame being posted, feel free to send a Moderator a PM with a link to the thread, do not however take it upon yourself to join that argument.
Secondly the thread was, and I guess still is under review, so far the consensus seems to be keep it closed.
Thirdly, blatant flaming of ANYONE is not permitted. I issued your infraction based on the old set of rules, but from the new set your statement also broke these rules:
Quote from Rules »
No flaming (including: racial/sexual/religious/medical slurs)
"Flaming" basically means "insulting".
Quote from Rules »
No trolling
Trolling basically means "posting a controversial point of view with the only intent of causing an argument",
Quote from Rules »
Discussion is encouraged - blatant arguing is not
If you're going to get heated about an issue, be sure to remain polite and civil. If it turns into a bashing war or flame fest, the topic will be locked and those involved may be subject to punishment. Keep it clean and respectful of those involved, please.
You making a crack at the Blizzard team just to draw argument was unnecessary.
Lastly, the proper action to take would to have been to message me or in a case you feel the moderator at hand is being unfair, message an admin about it.
Quote from Rules »
Do not discuss moderation or administration in a thread.
If you have an issue with something a mod or admin has done, do not discuss it in a thread for discussing a game or games, or anything that does not pertain to moderation or administration specifically. Please send the Moderator or Administrator in question a PM or email.
I gave a public warning to everyone in the thread earlier on saying to watch the flames.
Quote from Rules »
Take heed of what the Moderators and Administrators say
The mods and admins are here to try to keep the peace. If we see an argument brewing, a difficult situation or a rule violation, we'll make the members involved aware of this and try to resolve the issue. If you're asked to stop arguing, stop. If you're told that you've broken a rule, re-read the rules and remember not to do it in future. We're not here to be a pain, we're here to try to keep things running smoothly and for that we require your co-operation.
As that quote says, I'm not here to be a pain, I enjoy some discussions as much as the next person, and all though not all of the ideas in the thread were horrible in my opinion, the way things were discussed by both you and others lead to only argument and scorn between one another.
I will now close this post but leave it viewable for admins/mods to see and leave messages on. Any further discussion of moderation should be directed to me through PM or directed to an administrator.
Thanks,
Daemaro.
