Being banned is now automated?

[quote][b]MeechVII:[/b] The first fella I PMed was Recon. Here's the reply I received. [quote]We ninja have no ability to look at, set, alter, remove or assign bans. They are automated and completely outside of our view/control.[/quote] I'm not entirely sure what purpose the moderators now serve, but banning you isn't one of them. Since the ninjas couldn't help, I decided I'd roll the dice on getting something back from Achronos or Deej. Much to my surprise, Achronos responded. [quote]I believe you got either a notification or a private message from the system about it. Looks like you're banned until Jan 17 2013 at 2:35:17 AM for posting something more than a few users reported for Adult Content.[/quote] So, it seems that my not receiving a notification(I double checked) was a bug. Most irritatingly, it also seems we are now banned by the mob. It's worth noting that while certainly in poor taste, there was nothing in the thread that was in any way pornographic. So, if you decide to go in the mains, watch yourself. If you piss enough folks off, you're gonna be taking a break from B.Next for a bit. Perhaps this is all common knowledge by now, but I sure as -blam!- didn't know it.[/quote] According to this, we get banned from the mob?! Please tell me this isn't true. People could just troll with alts and ban people for the lulz. And if Bungie puts in titles once again (which they will), then people could ban Mythix from their rightful title! We thought we were out of the darkness...we were deceived...

  • I do foresee that the current way the ban system is perceived to work, could leave it open to abuse. Very easily.

  • They should make it mandatory to provide evidence and a link to the post. If the reporters fail to do so, there should be no ban.

    • i guess it's good as we can deal with idiots ourselves now, rather than having to wait for a mod to trundle along. but i can see people abusing this; organising attacks on people they don't like etc.

      • Wait, so, is this not the exact same as before? Just enough clicks on the report buttons call a ninja to review the ban and approve or disapprove? Also, @Duardo the thing saying 'you just post here' is kind of unhelpful, never mind.

      • It doesn't seem all that bad.

        Remember how you guys used to have a report button and it had to have a certain number of hits before a post was reported? Same thing, only now it's hide or mute and YOU will receive instant results, so YOU will no longer be affected by whats posted. We will review the reports and determine if what you say is true or not. We have no control on how long that ban will be, knowing when it will end, or even how to remove it. We simply agree or disagree and THAT'S IT! It's all up to YOU on how to moderate YOUR experience.

        • IDK, we'll see. Haven't heard much of this yet, so I am not going to cry foul just yet. Slightly on the side, I tend to use "Adult Content" for most of my hides. It's not for pornographic material, but more for content that isn't spoilers, threats, or personal information. For example, if someone is swearing up a storm and using racial slurs, I throw it under that category.

          • Mods still have to approve whether to ban or not
