So you, who we trust to make good conclutions, have a pretty good basement for doing that after this poll

What are you suggesting?

You agree not to post any abusive, obscene, vulgar, slanderous, hateful, threatening, sexually-orientated or any other material that may violate any laws be it of your country, the country where “ESOCommunity” is hosted or International Law.

you could start here :geek:

It already says "don't spam the forums" and it also says
It is important to note that these rules are not designed to be comprehensive, the site staff may take any action at any time if your conduct at ESOC is counterproductive to the community.

so I don't really see your addition.

So then why does esoc try to actively cater to everyone, instead of just targetting a group?

I didn't say anyone was a Nazi, why are you implying that I said that? That's libel

I don't know what's wrong with iwillspankyou, just like you can get away with your negative posts all time, they can make as many positive polls as they want to improve their operations. If you don't like something try to ignore.

hmm, I must admit I dont quite follow you here. How was my posts negative? I only tryed to say that the team already have the tools and permissions to erase troll posts, non sensical posts, derailing posts, flaming posts, etc etc.

The above kind of posting behavior has over the last year, almost ruined the will, ability, and interest in making any posts at all, wheather it is off or "on" topic. Well, I can only talk for myself here, but I would guess the same experience are shared with a lot of ppl. I also guess this shared experience is the reason for admins to make this poll in the first place.

Getting rid of Off topic though, is like cutting of a foot that is broken, instead of mending it ---- IMO

For the record, I do think the media team are doing a good job :flowers: . If I have any wish for them to do better, it would be that they dont tolerate posting behavior that are undermining us all in the end. And as far as I am concerned, they have the tools to do that as of right now.
