On offense, but this situation was avery unusual exception, and should probably be handled by Sirius.

2. During the whole 1shot fiasco several people (including myself) tried contacting Sirius so he could put a stop to it. Unfortunately, he was not taking any PMs which made it difficult to reach him.

The original rule was that you were not allowed to call out a particular person or syndicate as a cheater/glitcher on the forum if you discovered him. You were required to report and move on (RAMO) due to the number of complaints received against legitimate players, usually huge gold spenders. That practice was called "naming and shaming." It was sort of vigilante justice.

Somehow that phrase, and hence the rule, has been broadened to cover any sort of conduct that makes someone look stupid, even if they don't need the help. I've been warned/infracted for "naming and shaming" for quoting a ridiculous post without even making a comment on it. This rule has no meaning anymore. If the rule is going to be "don't say anything that some mod doesn't like, fine... It's their forum and they can ruin it if they like. Just don't expect it to actually guide anyone's behavior.

There you go.

@legalious, Sirius didn't seem to mind; he didn't say anything, but you had to?

Stop over-moderating, please.
Relax. :)

I am doing what I have been assigned to do. No over-moderation here, just following the guides that Relic, Clem, Bolt, Tadaaah left for me.

I don't know why you are trying to blame me for others mistakes. Sirus was informed of what was going on the same day it happened. Don't be so quick to point fingers, its quite rude.

Enough said
Not one of you openly came on here and asked him to stop or said it was wrong. For it to go on as long as it did speaks volumes for what is really thought about us

That would violate the forum code of conduct if he was to deal with it publicly. I would assume that they were messaging via other forms of communication which is how it is supposed to be handled.

What planet you on? A player seriously violated all the rules for over a week and you did nothing. So talking about naming and shaming, are you trying to blame Sirius as you point out he knew about it from day one and did nothing? You will have to ban yourself! Or get your pal 1sh*t to do it for you.

Maybe they can agree on another temp ban.

If you volunteered to work at a lemonade stand and lemons become extinct, would you continue working at your stand trying to sell lemonade?
