Ozhonda Infractions System

[wynode]

Can you implement a voting system PRIOR to introducing these fancy pants Infractions, PQ systems?

Yes we did. Moderators voted on it because they are the ones who will be using it. There were a couple of mods that didn't agree on it but the majority prefferred it.

It's here to stay so keep any other posts related to the infractions system please.

Thanks, The annoyance is because above all, there exists an ultimate good.
People are much more important than machines/engines.

There is a complete lack of respect conveyed when the community who helped build this repository carries no weight in this place, and furthermore are ridiculed by members of the moderator team. (can you imagine what is being said about this thread - myself, Toda and others in the mods corner?)

Think about that and hopefully you'll understand where I come from when I get the shits up.

Actually, there are no (at least recent) threads that I see relating to you or anyone else that you mention at all.

This thread is about the 'infraction system'. If you want to discuss site management and the decision making process, start a new thread.

Far from a power kick - the idea is to make moderator decisions more consistent. That way it is more difficult for X moderator to be harsher than another moderator or have a particular bias against certain individuals.

We also haven't changed what people can and can't say on this site since August 2005 (the terms and conditions regarding content were last updated then). So your gripe about freedom of speech sounds like sour grapes rather than constructive feedback. Things have not changed regarding posting content since 2005.

There is also no such thing as a right to free speech in Australia - we are not in the USA. But thanks for your input. Your constant gripes about the moderating team are always enlightening.

This set of rules is a good thing in my view. The word community comes to mind, with different generations, points of view coming together, hopefully with a richness and synergistic dynamic that adds to the vibe. Way to go guys!

I've been a moderator on a US based site for motorcycles in the past. We didn't have a points system. To me it's a bit like being the kid with the most footy cards.

But hey, how cool is it being a moderator???

how is a points based infraction system is like footy cards? that is retarded

a better comparison would be with your local rta/vicroads. there are set penalties for each offence (well i know there is in victoria) which is to prevent unfair or biased treatment.

anyone complaining about a system designed to make it fairer for EVERYONE needs to get their head checked

He's refering to the pq points system.
People try to get as many as they can, like kids with footy cards.

Chill out, was there any need for that comment?

that is retarded

Or this one either? They add nothing to your what your saying, only bitchyness, somthing ozhonda can do without, especially from a moderator.

[bennjamin]

...especially from a moderator.

Panda isnt a moderator ? So only represents his own opinion

BTW any other thoughts on the INFRACTIONS system guys ?

[Mr_will]

it seems fair enough to me
anything that makes it easier to get rid of people like hondaskywalker,iamvtec etc, in my opinion, is a good thing
