Sportsssssss banter/arguments

[Hecktix]

This threads now turned into the immenseman infractions discussion:rolleyes:. No offence jake because I love you

I want to get to the bottom of whats going to happen to the sports section; it's clearly no good as it is now, too many members are complaining, and even members that don't use the section regularly see a problem with it. Something needs to be done in favour of the majority.

As nvrspk4 said, banter is fine but some of the sports members have redefined banter as something else.

I think we all need to agree on a specific definition of banter, I believe Jake posted one earlier that was reasonable.

The whole forum team didn't even know about your infraction. If anyone above thought it was unfair, then fair enough. If they did PM me suggesting they think an infraction is unfair I would have still looked at it again.

If one of Moderators thinks it’s unfair and one of them thinks its fair, then there's a discussion and a final decision is made. The thread should have been looked at before the infraction was given due to the very similar posts above and below. If people have problems with infractions then they can appeal. If they still don't like the result, then they can appeal again and much greater view by other people will also be included before making it a final decision whether it is fair or not. Yes I must admit it was a problem with the Moderation at the time in that thread and also my mistake for not noticing it sooner and misunderstanding it.

Forum team in the context I used it in is the Super Mods and yourself. All of which supposedly agreed about the infraction unless the super moderator who issued it knew it was wrong and was frightened it was going to be removed... :S

I know it's a mistake of the moderation team. Such mistakes shouldn't be so frequent, end of.

Which merely highlights how bad the moderation in said forum is.

At nvrs point about people in the sports forum re-defining the word banter. We haven't done so. There was a stickied thread telling us banter would be looked at closer now. It was a word used by your staff. We know the definition of the word. We know the moderation staff worded it wrongly, not us re-defining it... :rolleyes:
