Flying Shogi Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 (edited) Was it due to breaking the rules or did you see them on a topic that you were interested in as well? Share your experiences! If you want, can you share your first time impressions? Mine was due to breaking the rules. On the very first day I created my account...... And staff, please share your opinions on us as well.

Parrhesia Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 (edited) Someone necroed, and I posted something unfortunately rather near in time. I got hit with a Verbal Warn for about two minutes before the mistake was realised. Now I've been made forever paranoid of this reoccurring XD Seem like good people to me. Significantly more approachable and ... human than a number of other forum staff. Edited August 10, 2010 by Agent Dale Cooper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fireman Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 (edited) I "asked" for a rom (not one of my more thoughtful moments), and nearly got warned halfway to non-existence. Edited August 10, 2010 by Fireman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightmare Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 I think it was when I argued the new Transformers movie's merit with Red Fox. Not a very good first impression, but I'm not one for first impressions anyway, so I still liked her after that. We didn't become friends until a few months later, though. If you mean stuff like warns then...I haven't been actually warned. Both of my warns are a -1 from Arc and Wist, the first one being a joke warn (when I requested Arc to mod me) and the second one being a birthday wish from Wist. I "asked" for a rom (not one of my more thoughtful moments), and nearly got warned halfway to non-existence. This makes me laugh for some reason.

Emeraldfox Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 Just like talking to a regular user. They do post, you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florete Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 I "asked" for a rom (not one of my more thoughtful moments), and nearly got warned halfway to non-existence. I remember that. I think it was when I argued the new Transformers movie's merit with Red Fox. Not a very good first impression, but I'm not one for first impressions anyway, so I still liked her after that. We didn't become friends until a few months later, though. I do not remember that. Somehow I get the feeling I do not want to remember it, either. My first encounter...well, I don't think I really had one, at least not until I actually became a staff member, and then I was on staff for a year and a half, so...although I guess the day before I became a mod might count, since that was the day Vincent practically shut down the forum and I was one of the ones who PM'd him like mad about it.

Dr. Tarrasque Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 (edited) I think there was that one time someone necroposted in the FE8 forum and I foolishly said "lol necro" forgetting that it wasn't FFTF. Red Fox caught it though it isn't much of an encounter since there was no PM about it. After that, just the invitation to join the staff as a Global Moderator, though if it counts, multiple PM conversations with VASM regarding the stuff I've submitted to the main site and a "custom report" to Wist that he apparently found amusing.

Nightmare Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 I do not remember that. Somehow I get the feeling I do not want to remember it, either. It wasn't that bad. I don't even think it was so much arguing as it was "It was a great movie" "It sucked" "No, I loved it." I honestly don't remember it being more than three posts.

Jaybee Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 On warns... 2 from Tino, 1 from Sirius. Aside from peppering Sirius with questions on a certain Tales game, I haven't really talked to the mods much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deleted35362 Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 Once I posted a simple reply to a thread without really explaining my position(don't remember what it was about), and it got deleted. I went back to the thread and I was like "hm? I thought I posted here...? 'Guess not." So I posted it again, and that got me a warn and a PM from Jyosua about it. Just like talking to a regular user. They do post, you know. You LIE. They can ban. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tables Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 The staff here are generally cool. I've given Jyoshua a verbal warning for breaking the rules, and been given a verbal warning for double posting. Yes, you did read that right. In fact, I can probably find it.... Yeah, wasn't hard. Here it is. Okay, I guess I told him to warn himself rather than warning him, but same difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxas Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 Quite a few warns. Poking around with Srs before he became a mod/admin too. Then there's always Fireman... and I guess Myth for when he was an Admin on April Fools Day last year. XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 I've only been warned once, and it's because my sister created an account from within this house and I forgot to clear it by the admins. Cue a PM from Tino "uh, I got two accounts with the same IP here..." and a brief and reconciled scandal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riariadne Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 (edited) My intro topic got locked by Musashi. My ambition was to secretly reopen it when I got to Heron when there was still member groups XD Other than that, I see the mods fairly often, say hi to Fireman every once in a while, got warned by Srs twice for spam utside of FFtF and a verbal warn from Fireman once, and not much else.

Original Alear Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 I got warned by: -Wist, for being a mean asshat on someone's intro topic (I think his name has fruitloop in it). Death also got warned IIRC but Death was joking around. -Nightmare, for a "shoutout" to Phoenix. -Sirius, for posting a spammy post in general discussion. (I thought I was in FftF) The staff here are generally cool. I've given Jyoshua a verbal warning for breaking the rules, and been given a verbal warning for double posting. Yes, you did read that right. In fact, I can probably find it.... Yeah, wasn't hard. Here it is.

Zak Something Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 I got PM'd once about necroposting. That's the only thing a mod really said directly to me. The mod's here are actually very cool. Not what I'm used to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strawman Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 I don't think I have gotten warned for anything. But I've only been here for a few month so.. I do see them posting in topics and stuff, so they seem like reasonable and friendly folks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Narga_Rocks Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 Haha. Could it be that they are mods? I'd assume he meant something beyond that. Obviously we are all: members at sf post more than never are mods Since all that is obvious, I'd assume that he meant more than that. My first real "conversation" was probably asking RF if I could doublepost in the topic that was trying to figure out how fe10 supports work (I was needing to update). Actually that was my first PM to anyone here ever, unless I deleted one at some point. Never got warned, though I was one of the people calling Inui by his hated alter-ego before Tino posted in a thread telling everyone to stop. Also, if you count it, random posts in the fe10 tier list where RF was also posting would come before the PM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Percivalé Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 (edited) Some of them are my friends; I will admit that I used to be incredibly intimidated by all mods and admins. I never believed any of them liked me (I was annoying and immature back then), and I'm usually just another tiny insect in all of the forums I joined. I've never had a good experience with big, important people... As for warns, I've never been even remotely warned at all. The only thing I could think of is when my signature went over the pixel limit in height and had to be shortened.

I actually contacted someone on this forum about shortening their signature size once because the rules got changed and I noticed they were over. I don't remember why I did, it's kind of silly.

Were you doing it as a friend to let them know that a mod might come and warn them or were you minimodding? If it's the latter: +1 for minimodding. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
