I think it's fairly obvious, but I suppose I should expect nothing different from you than feeble attempts at the "exact words" game. Post #32 was directed at Celtic. In post #33, you felt the need to toss in a pithy one-liner. In post #34, I addressed you directly and encouraged you to offer answers rather than insults. To this point, I don't see where you've been bothered to offer the slightest hint at what you would have done differently, nor the criteria you would have used to make your decisions. You know, kinda exactly what I said. Here we are a page later and in all your impressively worded posts and backhanded insults, you've still failed to offer anything resembling a solution.
Here, let me help you. I wouldn't recommend playing the exact words game with this one, but whatever floats your boat.
"I, in my infinite brilliance, would have done things differently than the administration which I have repeatedly called to task. I would have done…….."
"Further displaying my tremendous intellect, the criteria I would use to determine when someone should be banned should a similar situation arise in the future would be…………"
Well, how could anyone be anything but impressed with the administration, now that you're here to represent them.
I don't know why you can't understand what I said in post 30, but I'll spell it out for you in the form of answering your questions, if you like.
Here's my suggestion, for both this and future cases: Use experience and judgement, and take steps when someone's behaviour is obviously escalating and intended to cause trouble. Corwin had the experience and skills to recognise this, and made several attempts behind the scenes. A number of us saw this coming. Precognition is not required to defuse an obviously inflaming situation, and trolling behaviour.
Step in early and publicly. If the rest of the community is doing their part and not flaming the troll directly, I think the admins should do their part, and make it clear that they've recognised the problem and steps are being taken. Instant bans are not called for, but neither is a dismissive attitude to the those that are bothered, or suggesting that it's amusing.
That's my just my view. Myrthos could just tell me that if I don't like it, I can sod off, and I give him credit for not (yet) having done so. He thinks his approach is good for the community, I think it should be modified slightly, and so we're debating it.
I question why you admonish us for troublemaking after the fact, and yet do so in the most provocative and inflammatory way. My Rule 5 was a joke, but one with a point.
