We are engaged in a clandestine internal war of assassination and sabotage, battling for supremacy. From the dawn of time they came; moving silently down through the centuries, living many secret lives, struggling to reach the time of the Gathering; when the few who remain will battle to the last. No one has ever known they were amongst us... until now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StupidAndy Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 when someone reports a post, do you see who reported it? or is it anonymous? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snark Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 3 hours ago, StupidAndy said: when someone reports a post, do you see who reported it? or is it anonymous? We see who reported it. (That's pretty important, in case we have any questions. It also discourages folks from abusing the report system.) Note that reports include not just "who reported", but also a note (assuming the reporter saw fit to enter one). That's really important, because without that, we don't have the context of "what's the problem here?" Sometimes it's pretty obvious (e.g. if the reported post is being blatantly abusive, or something)... but a lot of the time, it's not so obvious at first glance what the issue is, and telling us why you're reporting is a real timesaver for us. One example of why the note is so important: Users don't have all the context that moderators do. It's not uncommon for users to report stuff that they simply don't like (but which actually isn't breaking any rules). If they report such a post without a note, we're left scratching our heads-- "did they report it because they think this thing is a problem, which actually isn't? Or is there some other problem somewhere that we're missing?" Which wastes our time, looking into the matter. So... feel free to report posts in any situation where you think a moderator's attention is required, but we'd appreciate it if you please include a note explaining why when you do so. Doesn't need to be long. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoctorDavinci Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 Is there a reason why some posts made by users of the forum are just being deleted (I assume by moderators) or is there a censorship sort of deal going on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only posts that moderators remove are ones that break the guidelines (examples are given in those guidelines). But it would be an exceptional case if the user wasn't informed of the reason why. If you've seen anything that troubles you, please don't hesitate to let one of the moderators know via PM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To piggyback off of what @Deddly said, we inform every user who has had something of their changed- whether it's a post in the thread, a note if we had to do some editing, a PM, or a warning. Sometimes, though, we don't inform everyone who may have seen the post. For instance, we don't share if and why users have been warned, since that's a private matter between the moderators and the specific member. Edited November 27, 2017 by Dman979 Forgot a word.

And that is not what happened in this case (as well as others .. Frybert incident for example) ... Post is gone with no explanation I have taken this to PM with a member of your moderation team and hopefully this situation can be resolved in a cordial manner without myself being censored (or others for that matter) on the subject of moderator censorship Thanx for clearing up the 'rules of engagement' that the moderation team is supposed to follow ... unfortunately it appears those rules were ignored in this case as well as others with other members (of which there are a few) ... Either that or there is a gremlin in your forum software that is selectively deleting posts from certain members which we have seen in the past Again, thanx for clarification and the work that you guys do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing major, but on the mobile version the like button is messed up. It still works, it’s just looks weird sometimes. This forum ("Kerbal Network") is an appropriate place-- you can just open a new thread. Please bear in mind, though, that there's limited flexibility in actually fixing problems, since the forum runs on 3rd-party software that's not owned or maintained by Squad, so they're basically at the mercy of the company that vends it. Bug reports welcome, because of course Squad can then reach out to the vendor with it, see if it's possible to get a fix (or if a patch already exists, etc.)... just please realize that it may or may not be possible to get a fix (or it might take a long time to get one) because it's not directly under Squad's control.
