Poll: How do you feel about The Basement's posts on ESOC forums?
Poll: How do you feel about The Basement's posts on ESOC forums?
The ESOC staff would like to hear what's the general opinion of the community regarding members of The Basement and their posts on our forums. Existing content of The Basement includes Tip of the Day/Week series, the Revolt podcast, the charity Telethon and the TTM tournament. Most prominent members of The Basement are @evilcheadar and @fightinfrenchman, both of whom are currently banned from posting for an extended amount of time on the grounds of continuous trolling/baiting on the forums. Note that the outcome of this poll may or may not affect any decision from the staff team, but we would like to know how our community at large feels about this delicate issue and take it into account.
Thanks!
Thanks!

This seems like a wise decision.

How about: I enjoy their content (podcast, stream, etc), not always their posts, but don't like banning people.
Edit: @Snuden that's not a very kind, nor productive response.

Maybe not :/
But... Making a decision as a forum mod and then ask what the community think of the decision is as Beta as it gets.

Frankly I never understood the banning of any of them. I can understand that Evelcheader sometimes step over the line of "good taste" But so do a lot of other ppls posting in the forums. Then again, Nothing that the community cannot handle I think, and they have done good jobs for the benefit of us all.
Banning of ppl has been to random, to harsh, and "easy" to do, and to "unforgiving" lately, that is my opinion of this matter, anyway.
I for one, would wish them back

I don't enjoy the fact that they use the forum to blog about their personal stuff (like me and X we're going fishing tomorrow -- which socks should I wear), but I don't really want them gone either. I don't have anything against them personally.

Those members should be unbanned. Period.
It is like reading an article in the newspaper. Think baldly or not of its craft should those writers be banned all together? I think not. I do not see trolling in their material but if you do then you might be too thin skinned for the internet as a whole.

if what they've done is grounds for removal, there should be many others in the same boat

This poll is split 10 10 6 so far.
We all know how some people say if you are against woman (mainstream liberal ramblings by the way) that you eliminate the value of half the human race. Well I think you do not take into account the opinion of half the esoc community by the same logic if you split the first two opinions roughly evenly. How dare you. You and your admin white cis gender admin privilege ban 2 valued voices of have the esoc community. How dare you.

But none of them so constantly ignore warnings and bans. So no, its not even close to comparable.

Yeah, because they're normally top players. It's no sweat off ESOC's back to ban a few dudes who rarely play anyway.

Warnings and bans generated by Mussolini admin should be valued as what they are.

I think all in all they are Callen.
I think by the same token that Ryan may rage out of a tournament and be excused with his contributions well taken and being at the top that those basement member be graced by that same luxury. I think Ryan is awesome and fundamental to the success for Esoc before and after that event (and no ban considered). Though Cheddar and Ear contributions do not match close to Ryan or are similar in the way they contribute but what they add to the Aoe3 community is overwhelming positive even if some posts are considered by taste by some admin.

This just seems devoid of awareness of facts.
