Lack of moderation #538

Open gaelysam opened 6 years ago

gaelysam commented 6 years ago

Not really a Github issue, but I'm reporting it here because I'd like to be sure that someone will read it.

The server is now full of players again (5-8 players), which has never happened the last 2 years. On one side it's a great thing, it brings life to a server that I thought was dead. But on the other hand some players are clearly going beyond the rules. The problem is that there doesn't seem to be anyone capable of moderating the server and it's gradually becoming anarchy.

Even more serious: @Cyberpangolin and crabman77 got their accounts stolen, so the only moderator accounts are currently under the control of a malicious player.

@Darcidride Have you read my forum PM?

What do you mean by "anarchy" ? What rules are they breaking ?

gaelysam commented 6 years ago

See what I just added to my first post about Cyber and Crabman's accounts Otherwise it's mainly on the chat: in the last hours I saw many insults, swears, and even a racist sentiment Once there was someone dating, too

There are some nice players on the server, but they are annoyed by this bad atmosphere.

It happens again, very annoying. 1 hour 40 minutes of constant insults (12:00-13:40 French time), and I can't do anything. For me who have been following this server for almost 4 years, this is really disappointing. Olaari and Azagal report to be personally bullied by a group of players who followed them when they left Eurythmia 2 weeks ago, for no other obvious reason.

@Darcidride Sorry for highlighting you from everywhere, but something really need to be done quickly. Also, Obani and I would be ready to take matters in hand and moderate this server to make it a decent place to play.

imo things aren't that bad. Players are playing, and yes that creates a lot of noise. If people can't afford having as much chat flood as on any "played" server, then you can locally mute them. Each sides are wrong in some ways.

All what I've seen is players playing and not liking each other. Insults are part of common attitude. That's my point.
