Wipe the slate clean

[Mint]

Hey,

We all make mistakes on here, say things that we didn't really mean, lose our temper or even do some bad things by accident. Some of us will of been infracted or warned for what we have done. But even when we have learnt from our mistakes we still have marked accounts, when they have expired we and every MOD/Admin can still see them. They can feel like burdens, trying to get any form of job on here or to be taken seriously by an admin can become quite hard to do. Which is why I think the system would work better and give everyone a more fairer chance if the infraction/warning was to disappear when it expires. Anyone that hasn't learnt from their mistakes and continues to cause trouble can be punished again for whatever they have just done.

Thanks for reading. =]

They don't hinder you that much. I was an AGM and I had infractions. They have no need to wipe the slate clean. If you've broken the rules before it's essential they can still see that to see if you continue to break the rules then you'll be banned etc. Sure some infractions and warnings you may regret but you still broke the rules. Just because one day you wake up and think "urgh why did i do that" doesn't mean they should just wipe the whole slate clean.

Well I am not sure if it could happen technically but its not a bad idea whether it is practical for feasable I am not sure. Obviously this is just my personal opinion but if somebody has not broken any rules after say 12 months then maybe to delete expired infractions etc is something that could bring a positive result to the person and to the forum as a whole as they have something to work towards.

Fair point.

Surely everyone that uses this forum has heard of runescape? It's a very big game, always around 100,000+ people playing 24/7. They have just enforced a new punishment system where they wipe the slate clean after the black marks have expired. If it's good enough for such a massive site then why isn't it good enough for Hxf?

[Immenseman]

Runescape isn't HxF. I do think they should be wiped every now and again. I'm not sure how regular. I did make a thread like this ages ago saying that they should be deleted. Maybe like Rosie said they could be deleted after every year.

I got hired with dj-cookeh as a dj again last year and I had 4 infractions that were still active. It doesn't effect you getting a job. The only thing that stops you getting a job on here is: the do not hire list, biast managers and simply not being good enough.

They were last wiped last June (I got a warning like the same day and it's still there ), maybe make it yearly? :eusa_ange I hate all the pages I've got because it looks more than I actually have/had, I've got a few warnings and infractions that were reversed but I reckon that'd be overlooked by mods because it would just be one persons opinion on whether it should have been reversed and another persons opinion on whether it should have been issued in the first place, meaning that if someone thinks you should have had it then it would look like you probably did deserve it if you understand what I'm saying, I'd rather these ones got removed

[Immenseman]

Yeah. I really think reversed ones should be wiped straight away. They were done by accident so I shouldn't have to see them. Makes me look like I have so many more than I do and plus they look ugly.

doesnt bother me either way. i say keep them

I've just counted and I've got 6 reversed ones, two were issued wrongly and I think the rest were reversed because they were just stupid. (Like calling someone a year 8 lol). That would bring down my pages of infractions by 1 and a half and would look *slightly* better, usually if a mod saw all these infractions they probably wouldn't look through them all and just think I broke rules all the time even though these were reversed ones. Reckon there's any chance they could be removed?
