Halopedia talk:Discord server: Difference between revisions

:What is and isn't against the rules aren't necessarily what is or isn't permitted - often we'll let things go that are technically violations.  In this case, you posted multiple lines of text from an external source in a short period of time that disrupted the flow of an active conversation.  Furthermore, you did it multiple times in the same chat session.  The fact that you fail to seem to recognize how it COULD be against the rules merely furthers my argument.  The rules, for the most part, are fairly common-sense - don't disrupt the channel, don't gross people out, don't do anything illegal, don't attack others - in summary, be respectful and follow Freenode's rules.  Most of the fights I get into with users over what they perceive to be unfair moderating are because they fail to realize how their actions are disrespectful to their fellow community members.  I believe that this incident, too, is a case where there has been a failure to recognize how one's actions was disrespectful to the rest of the community.  I can understand why someone might fail to see that, but for someone to be moderator material, in my eyes, they have to be able to recognize these types of situations both in their own conduct and in the conduct of those around them. --[[User:Forgottenlord|forgottenlord]] 16:16, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
