My post wasn't off topic it all, was it?

http://boutcheetah.zylongaming.com/index.php?topic=34764.msg332404#msg332404

yes

the topic is based on the people who are getting reported and how they will be punished

you asked questions about how the staff would speak to lots of spammers at once

well there is a rule in that section that if you are not goin to help just don't post at all.

That's what my question was about.
I wanted to make sure they're going to be punished and asked if that's the case.

Where else would I post that quuestion?
Tell me a section that fits better for that question please.

PM..? wow lol.

It wasn't only directed at Selene, but to all staff, she was just the one that posted in that thread.
I don't feel like sending a PM to every ingame staff member.

Also according to your previous statement my post wasn't so off topic

yo neo, ur not gonna get unwarned.
just face it dude

Well idk, maybe you were supposed to make a new topic?

i still see it as off-topic, i just ignored it because it's a matter of perspective

that's like one person gets reported for hacking and someone is like HOW DO PEOPLE HACK STILL? you're talking about hacking it's still off topic though

your question was asking and not contributing. it wasn't directed at selene but it could've indeed been a new thread, pretty much anywhere. "how do you deal with spammers" or something like that. it's too many possibilities for me to even type properly .-.

in summary: open eyes, use more buttons the forum gives you, acquire success

+1 hawk

i'll just repeat a point to make sure it's clear, you are supposed to contribute to report a rule breaker topics. i agree your warning was fair based on the rules of the section - whether the rules of the section are fair or not is another story. <that is probably what you should change your argument to being about

neo went off the deep end of "i must rebel against the establishment" but in a unfunny, serious and butt-frustrated way >________>

green dots aren't automated, if a FM forgets to remove them, PM someone

Ok I didn't contribute but my thread wasn't that off topic as well.
It was obvious I didn't intend going off topic and a verbal warning would have been enough maybe with an explanation what I did wrong.

I mean that's what warnings are for, right ?
To prevent a person breaking more rules in future.
However the better way is to explain what they did wrong when a staff member notices the person didn't understand, instead of warning him just to feel satisfied that he punished someone.

the report a rule breaker section is taken very seriously by some staff when it comes to off-topic. i guess they expect that everyone should have learned by now what the difference is between contributing and not contributing

that's not a shot at you btw, but that's how they must feel and it'd make sense if it was
