AO ops!!

[Miscue]

Thanks Vegeta... hit it on the head.

People get kicked/banned for general acts of annoyance/stupidity. Then they turn into professional victims and cry about how the mods single them out and excessively flogged them with a wet noodle. Basically... they're being a pain, we act on it, and they try to get 'even' when they were in the wrong to begin with. Tactics include: Claims of abuse of power, exaggerating actions of mods, missing big parts of the story, not mentioning what they did wrong, not being accountable for what they did.

OMG OMG OMG!!! The mods KICKED ME! MEEE!!! Can you believe it?! The 20 milliseconds that it took for me to come back is outrageous! I'm TEEELLLLLIINGGGG!! OOOH!!

Kicks = a little screen flicker that makes for an effective, harmless way of telling you that you're out of line.

Bans are the irc equivolent of time out. Normally we put you in the corner for about 5 minutes or so. We didn't rob you of your milk money, torch your house, put your pet goldfish in the deep fry...

Making a big deal over... NOTHING!

GOSH DARN IT!!
stop writing that the mods are good and such I think they are good too, I want to know wht to do when they miss something horrible.

so please stop comenting about how ops kick/ban because of different reasons. I don't care about that I want to know where to report people.

Make a copy of the chat log and send it to any of the Moderators. If you don't know how to do this, read your Help Topics with mIRC.

More the answer you were looking for?

what's ASAPP?

and definatly if you've been here for a while you'll see that certain people get banned and some don't, and in general, just don't say anything stupid, it's a paintball forum anyway.
so just move on it's not a big deal

and "gosh darn it" is a really silly thing to say - that is just embarressing.
The mods do a very good job as it is. There are only a few and they do actually, when you look at it, make AO a clean and well organized forum.

OK ASAPP= The Alaska State Association of Paintball Players

I am talking about the chat rooms not the forums, I know that the forums are very well takin care of because you can scroll through. The ops do awsome on the chatroom when they are around.

What i want to know is where or who to inform f someone does something when the chat ops are not around. Im not talking petty disputes or little name calling, I am talking bigtime you-should-be-banned harassment. thats what I want to know.

That's when we have to rely on YOUR good moral sense. Tell whoever is breaking the rules just that. If he continues, ignore him completely. Get his IP (from when they Join), and report that via PM or Email to a mod.
