sal_vager Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Perhaps a sly admission of guilt at liking his own posts from a secret non square and mundane account? But yes some people have done that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spacetraindriver Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 How exactly do these rank..."Dots" work? Is it based on rep or something else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

legoclone09 Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Hmm... based on how I act on the forums how do I qualify to be a moderator? If I did ever want to be a moderator I would have to actually post in the KSP-related areas, though, not just The Lounge and Kerbal Network.

Vanamonde Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 The parts of the forum you frequent isn't relevant. I myself hardly ever go to the modding subs, since I prefer to play stock and so am not very familiar with the questions and situations which can arise there, which is alright since there are several moderators who are heavily into mods and very familiar with that kind of thing. So as always, the requirements are 1) over 18, 2) fairly clean warn history, 3) helpful attitude, 4) good communicator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkOwl57 Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Why'd you guys change up the forum guidelines? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guidelines were a bit unclear on a few points for everyone, including moderators. Hopefully it's better now. It's all in the announcement, really: "We hope that these new guidelines will make it easier for regular users to understand what is appropriate conduct for our community and for moderators to moderate in moderation."

passinglurker Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Can we add excessive use of caps lock to the forum rules please? Now that the dev's set the example it's gonna open the flood gates to click baity thread titling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deddly Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 @passinglurker we try to aim less for oppression and more for protection, reactive rather than proactive, if you know what I mean? You're referring to something that has happened one time. Imagine if we were to add a rule each time someone does something we don't like.

Dman979 Posted March 3, 2017 Author Share Posted March 3, 2017 Are reaction images not banned anymore? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diomedea Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 17 hours ago, Dman979 said: Are reaction images not banned anymore? They aren't listed anymore as a specific item in the rules (which is actually better IMHO, too many had different ideas of what a reaction image is). That means images appropriate to a ongoing discussion won't be questioned anymore for possible application of a rule that was never intended to curtail all ways of expressing a legitimate viewpoint in pictures. If the content isn't appropriate to a discussion, all of the rules in section 2.2. "Forbidden Content" apply to images too. What is objectionable with reaction images is actually described in those rules, e.g. 2.2.d about rudeness or harassment, or 2.2.m about unnecessarily boosting post counts, with something that does not contribute in any way and actually distracts from the true subject in a thread (if not even worse).

Dman979 Posted March 3, 2017 Author Share Posted March 3, 2017 So, a simple image response (with no other text) is now OK? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diomedea Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Could be OK if appropriate to a ongoing discussion, e.g. it helps others understand a concept. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
