To add to Nicole's post: if you want to report such a user on ERA, please provide us with ironclad evidence that they are the same person doing the harassment/etc. off-site. We have enough on our plate already and can't be doing detective work for other communities. Thanks.
So everyone is a dickbag now huh? ok, got it. Please stop trolling.
The specifics of that are beyond the scope of this discussion. All we want is to avoid wasting moderator's time with baseless accusations and forcing them to do the legwork. Surely you can understand that.
I really hope that is not what is implied. But I don't read the moderator comments like that.
So someone impersonating hydrophilic attack on another site making fun of someone here, lets say Dennis8K, should get you banned? Is that what you are suggesting?
How can you be sure it's the same person, even if it's the same username? Honestly, as long as someone isn't being racist, sexist, etc it's not worth the time to care if someone made fun of a post you (speaking generally) made.
Not really. What did you hope to gain from asking that question? Nobody other than 'that guy' (who you couldn't even be arsed to specify) can answer. and 'that guy' isn't going to answer with something you'll accept. So... why did you ask something you're surely intelligent enough to know was fruitless?
So he could explain his post? To point out how absurd it is? Do you not think that post is absurd?
Closing the originally positive post with such a needless insult kinda kills every point you made before that :/
I understand Morrigan.
I'm unsure what you're concerned about because there's been very little to be concerned about in this thread. Any examples of bore users not posting in good faith? or is that a currently baseless claim?
ResetEra has not existed for years. You must be thinking of the old site that ResetEra was created to get away from.
Is it really all that difficult to get along on an internet message board? Is it? Because I don't think that it should be.
People are acting in this thread like it's West Side Story with the Jets (the Bore) versus the Sharks (ResetEra). Stop trying to make this a thing. Do we need to clear out some space so we can all dance around in a circle snapping our fingers at each other in order for all of you to get it out of your system?
This is not an us versus them type scenario. The Bore is not some homogeneous entity and neither is ResetEra. You have individual people that post on one, individual people that post on the other, and,sometimes, just sometimes, you may even have people that post on both.
People with Bore accounts who sign up for ResetEra are expected to abide by our rules. People who sign up for ResetEra without Bore accounts are also expected to abide by our rules. As long as everyone with a ResetEra account abides by our rules, they are welcome to post here. Full. Stop.
Honestly, we shouldn't even need to have a terms of service or a FAQ talking about the behavior that's acceptable here. It all starts and stops with not being jerks to each other. In the words of the world's greatest prophets, past, present or future, just:
I'm going to review the bans in this thread and extend amnesty where the users previously had no bans and they were banned for getting heated.
