Emperor Stranger Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Is it possible to report people who flame others through, say, IRC after you reported them for breaking a rule in-game or on the forums? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedestro Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Of course not, anything outside of the game site and any official forums is not in the realm of Staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperor Stranger Posted August 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Of course not, anything outside of the game site and any official forums is not in the realm of Staff. But admitting to being multis is? I think this is why reports should remain anonymous, that way I don't get flamed for trying to help uphold the rules. (This wasn't my first time, just my first time not being flamed on this forum.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Revan Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Trolling/flaming and other harassing behavior on IRC should be reported to the IRCops. If the harassment happens in #cybernations the offending parties will be banned from the channel. Outside of that it is not our turf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a new rule or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're free to make a report based on anything you have read. But it's not like you can use it as definitive proof or use it to file a complaint such as flaming. But say if you did catch somebody admitting being a multi, you could make a report and the staff could take a closer look at the account habits of the accused. Any deletion by game staff would ultimately come from something they uncovered from looking at the accounts themselves, not what you posted.

I will just have to remember to report people via PM from now on. (Actually, now that I think about it, isn't there a rule against harassment?)

(Actually, now that I think about it, isn't there a rule against harassment?) There is a rule against Forum harassment, not IRC harassment. I believe anything IRC related, the mod staff won't rule on because the "proof" could be faked. No need to report people via PM, and any IRC harassment just talk to the IRC Op's in #irchelp (like Revan said). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yetanothername Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Yes, there is a rule against harassment on Coldfront IRC. Join #irchelp and ask for an IRCop to file your compliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
