    That won't be a problem anymore. Also, let's keep the discussion of moderation issues to a minimum on this subject. That said, after just purging ~40 of Montezuma's more egregious posts, if anyone sees any uncouth ones I missed please let me know in a message. Carry on with your thread(s).

    Hey look, a thread about the conflict between Umbrella and OBR/OTR. Maybe we could all have a great time and keep it on that topic or something.

    A reminder to all that this is an In Character area, which means rhetoric should stay within the realms of Planet Bob. In addition, it is apparently necessary to remind everyone that derogatory remarks, flaming, and other such inappropriate content are also not allowed. Continued infractions will not be verbals.
  4. Otto Pilot
    I recommend following this advice everyone.

    OOC in IC, flaming/trolling, and off topic derailing are among the half dozen plus rule violations within this thread. Do not force moderation to lock this thread on a current and developing event. Continued off topic derailing and/or OOC in IC will result in full warnings issued. Consider this a verbal warning to everyone.
  6. Otto Pilot
    No joke threads please.

    Moved to a more appropriate venue.

    Attention passengers, due to this thread being over-weight with topics we're going to have to ask about 75% of the entire thread reaccomodate to another, more appropriate one. We do apologize for any inconvenience. Just to make myself abundantly clear: revert to the original topic and/or make a new thread about the political incident on white. Consider this a global verbal. Thank you.

    Attention passengers: Further derailing of this thread's scheduled flight plan, more breaches of the OOC in IC hull, and/or attempts to discuss the flight's moderation issues outside of the cockpit will now result full written citations as opposed to verbal ones. Should these activities continue this flight will be grounded. Please try and avoid getting added to the no-fly list, and thank you for flying with us.

    This "lots of writing" was done as it is clear that you and many others appear to have a difficulty understanding that "you can now reply with one worded congratulatory posts to an announcement" has not, does not, and will not include clearly stated continued infractions such as QFT posts. There is absolutely no reason anyone should get warned more than once, much less banned, for spam. But that is not for us in the moderation to keep from happening, it's the posters who we can only ask so many times to follow rules. But then again, what do we in moderation know about forum rules, we should always defer to a panel of those warned and their friends on the rules and regulations.

    Illegitimate tech is still illegitimate, no matter if it was received in good faith or bad. Otherwise everyone could claim good faith hereon out and deal with multis exclusively with no statistical repercussions. We aren't going to look at every drop of tech sent on a case by case basis and determine who did and did not know, and we certainly cannot just ask people on an honor system. And no, good faith buyers aren't the one penalized, everyone involved is. Multis, bad faith buyers, and good faith buyers. An across the board neutralization of illegitimate tech going forward.
  12. Otto Pilot
    Tech received from illegitimate nations is itself illegitimate, and should never have existed if everyone was being honest rule abiding citizens. If everyone could keep their tech because they can feign plausible deniability saying they paid for the tech then why delete tech farm multis at all? Anyone who receives tech from a multi is, even if unknowingly, a part of the wider machinations of that multi's activities.

    That is closely guarded staff insider information I'm afraid. Edit: I misread you, my apologies for misinterpreting your intentions as trying to learn of Keelah's nesting habits.

    Don't fret, at least we aren't too lazy to warn for mod sass.

    If we allow one emoticon, people will demand we allow more such as o7 (just for starters). We allowed one worded congratulations and people want memes and o/. If you can't even be bothered to post the four letters for "hail" or a contracted "congrats" and absolutely have to post o/, frankly you have no business posting in the thread in the first place. That's just the way of things. Maybe in the future there will be a change to allow it, but for the time being we have decided to continue our ban on all emoticon-only posts rather than start a precedent for allowing it. As such it is easier for everyone to just keep things as they are, it hurts no one and isn't a some massive request of you the posters.
  16. Otto Pilot
    o/ is considered an emoticon, whereas 'Hail' and the like are a word of congratulations.

    Closing thread as question was answered, thanks extended to Williambonney and the rebel for their provided answers.

    Locking thread as the question is answered, thanks to Krihelion for providing the answer.

    Actually that'd be a great idea for a punishment, unfortunately the paperwork is now out of my hands. It would be nice to have somebody to go through all those thousands of files to be properly archived after all.
  20. Otto Pilot
    Too late, I have already submitted the four dozen pages of paperwork to the senior staff for review regarding the issue. Provided everything was stamped correctly, we should see a reckoning on TidyBowlMan in eleven to twelve business days. That said, the office is closed this Friday so it may take even longer.
