Indefinite ban request purge / changes

GeekGuy432 · September 28, 2021 at 10:58 PM

I suggest the indefinite ban list is purged except for the most egregious cases. If not, I suggest the following:

All waiting times to appeal be cancelled e.g. anyone banned can appeal again as long as their last appeal was before the closure announcement.
Appeals are expedited

This is because there is a material change compared to when the appeals were originally made. I think it would be harsher than we intended to stop people returning to the server before it shuts down.

vouch
worst case the server gets completely shut down... oh wait it already is...
don't see any risk here

I was almost about to be stupid enough to say "vouch, but I think those who have committed sec 1 offences deserve to stay banned."

I think we should unban serial trolls and stuff like that, but I'm strongly against server crashers being allowed back.

Vouch, server's gonna die anyway if a crasher slips through

Meh, vouch, serv is dying anyways

I have the feeling it won't happen

↩ Tizz All admins?

erin · September 29, 2021 at 2:59 PM

↩ MiasmusAlt Stevens access to manage indefinite bans, presumably.

MiasmusAlt · September 29, 2021 at 2:59 PM

↩ erin Is he the only one who can do that? If so, we have a problem.....
@"Ryan"#1 will you be closing all appeals/applications, or will they have the opportunity to be accepted/denied until the server closes? People like Paige definitely deserve to come back for the last few days

FromTimeToTime · September 29, 2021 at 3:57 PM

object.

by all means, make special arrangements for people for the last days of ryan’s ownership, but this is otherwise a terrible idea. if/when tf comes back from the dead we’ll have to live with the consequences of this decision.

i can’t wait to see this thread awaken every no-name alt ever registered.

↩ FromTimeToTime it won’t come back though

GeekGuy432 · September 29, 2021 at 5:08 PM

↩ FromTimeToTime Good point - thanks. I hadn't thought about the potential consequences of this idea in the event that the server is resurrected. Looking at the suggestion again the idea of purging the ban list probably wouldn't be wise. I'll think more about what could be a more sensible approach.

MiasmusAlt · September 29, 2021 at 5:14 PM

I think we should just expedite appeals and maybe be more lenient on them. That would still weed out the worst players

GeekGuy432 · September 30, 2021 at 11:26 AM

In light of the recent announcement, I withdraw this suggestion.
