You banned in doomworld?

Not really, but they intertwine a lot.

I just got "banned" for a week or something. Worth it - someone was in distress maybe and had to respond with what little wits I had. If I lasted more than 10 years without a warning point, I would've dropped the N-word as a meme, or something... dunno. So I'm glad they're on top of it.

Activism tears fandoms apart.

Hey now... I actually defend this fucking fandom. I may be 700 drinks beyond the fucking poing, but... but they are doing circles at this point... Either way: Doom Wins. You fuckng CUNNTS.

Actually, I'm calming down now. All adults must go to their bedrooms now... Yeh...

I got thirteen days left until im allow to have an opinion on there again, going to try and not get purposely banned as I fucking hate those wheebo fuckheads but its always useful if I need a question on mapping answered in like 2 seconds because those people are like hawks there to answer shit in like 2 seconds and its helpful....but I wanna get my hands on who ever is the moderator and the rednekerz wiki bitch hog mother fucker.

Pertinent question. That shall not go unanswered even if duplicitously so.

Reality is I don't go travelling very often. Let alone to check hypothetical sanctions on another worlds.

Therefore, a keen mind could say, that, much like the puss inside a box contiguously sided by perniciously suggestive contraptions involving equally mistrustful looking vials: I could and could not be banned at the same time!(?) That's quite nuts however.

With that being said, could someone be a doll and check it for me?

lutumlautus who are you talking about? I can tell you of one community project that will never get finished (30 Sectors), because the author doesn't know how to use Slade, but hides that fact from the dozen or so mappers that currently are wasting their time making maps for him, while he doesn't even take the time to play them, provide them with feedback, or look after his own project thread. I've been thinking of warning everyone involved with the project since i was involved with it as at some point as well, but then i thought, why? The only thing that will happen is, i'll end being the bad guy at the end, when the kid behind the project has to close it because of me.
There's also that Johnny kid that started a project and then abandoned it after many months to start a new one like nothing happened. Him and his spam brigade have been quite the unbearable sight in recent months.

I can definitely get your point, seeing stuff like this frustrates me as well, because it's typically a result of a new user (90% of the time an underage kid who doesn't know any better) with no mapping experience that wants to be a project leader, and people fall for it. If one has respect for the people who work day and night to make maps for the community, they will start a project only if certain in their ability to complete it. I'm new as well, but at least i know my place and have no delusions of grandeur, and that's why i get annoyed when i see these kids taking advantage and leading mappers by the nose. It's basically the same type of peole who start topics asking to sign up programers and designers for free, thinking they can produce a video game out of thin air, just because they have an idea they believe it's cool.

lmao seriously? Every little thing that gives them power they will take happily. fucking nerds

Still somebody has coded it like that and it isnt needed for a ban. You could just show the message "you're banned until such and such" and leave it at that.

Meh, was going to just leave it all behind me but this one might be good for a laugh, so here it is - how I actually got banned from DW.

I am one opinionated bitch, but I also know where and when my opinions might or might not be relevant. First mistake on my part: assuming that a Doom forum was designed to discuss and, yes, critique Doom as long as I wasn't offensive to other members or their specific works. Apparently not so, as exactly two statuses (for those who don't know, 'statuses' on DW are sort of personal updates that are accessible only if you follow the user or specifically browse through them, so nothing you will see unless you want to) were enough to put me on the mods' radar. Since I believe in 'name the sin, not the sinner' I won't say it was esselfortium and rd (AD_79 also butted in, in their usual whiny and milquetoast manner so they don't really matter to the story).

First in line is esselfortium, attacking me on my, again, personal status on my profile with a sanctimony and virulence that, I pointed out, would have gotten anyone else at least a warning - and, in fact, in the replies she did get a bit of flak from other users with half a brain. But, of course, esselfortium, so off scot free once again.

The content of the status? I quote verbatim:

'Vanilla '

Yup, on DW that is enough to get you prepped for the slaughterhouse.

After a while comes rd, whose defining characters are underhandedness, condescension, sanctimony, and absurdly long-winded speeches that manage to take half your screen saying absolute nothing of significance. I find one such jeremiads on my, again, personal status and I respond exactly that - that I have no use for long winded speeches. No insults, no name calling, just that.
The follow up is another long-winded speech saying that my - again, strictly Doom - opinions, I quote verbatim again, 'annoy a bunch of people' followed by the string of emotes rd is so fond of abusing. Then...

They block my status to further replies.

No bud, just no. No one ever got to shush me, nor online nor in real life. To me, a platform that affords such behaviors even to mods is a dead platform. This lifts the scales from my eyes, and I take the decision to leave DW for good - not before giving them a piece of my mind in one final personal status. Of course this gets me banned, but it was one of those 'never come back again! when I'm already a mile away' comically vindictive bans that honestly just make me smile.

There is more of course, like the way a few months later rd again, in a rather well known Doom discord server, abused their moderation powers to share private info about my activity on such server (specifically, that I was muting one of the server's darlings). I left immediately, of course, for safety and privacy concerns, along with all other servers I shared with rd. My safety and privacy online matter to me, and I won't let an eSTeEmEd cOmmUNiTy MeMBeR put me into jeopardy for kicks and social clout with their inner circle.

End of story. Hope you had a laugh.

Speak (or bork) for yourself, doggy. I did had a chuckle (or two).

Also, there's no such thing as Doom besides vanilla (period) and if moderation powers were bestowed upon me I'd ban anyone who disagrees. No mercy. And if my party manages to seize the archives, in my benevolence, perhaps, two options could be given; convert your pwad onto strict limits or be deprived of idgames hosting benefits. I'm no austrian but thats Mein Kampf.

Hail Nibbler!
