Re: Guideline / ruleset revision attempt 11ty7 - give your input by Monday, March 3.
Well, it's March 4 here, and it appears that nobody has a beef with anything currently written.

Ergo, I recommend adoption of the rules/tips as posted in the OP.  Concur?

I'll not only approve, I'll give you a coveted "Gold Star". No idea if it really has any significance, but you've earned it.

I'm ok with it, sorry I didn't contribute with anything so far, I just had nothing to add to what was being said.

Okay, the rules are done. I think we're doing well with the discussion on the internal by the moderators. People seem to be in favour of the changes I mentioned regarding licensing too. So I think I'll get all this stuff up in the correct places later today and we can start running with the new rules.

Re: Guideline / ruleset revision - Last chance to comment for now
The new rules seem great but my biggest issue with them is that they don't address mod-related issues on the forums like the ones experienced by Spoon a while ago.

Being incredibly immature and causing mod wars, or derailing threads by criticizing what somebody has - or hasn't - done in order to undermine his credibility, should be considered harmful acts, perhaps more harmful than the typical personal attacks we're all used to blame. I mean, if the ad hominem attack is wrong, the "ad modum" attack should also be considered wrong. I don't understand why pointing a community member out as an idiot may result in a warning, but criticizing his portfolio on a thread that has nothing to do with it results in nothing. I'm not posting any examples because I know for sure that this thread would quickly derail soon afterwards and become a flame war.

Considering the particular nature of HLP, which is a site dedicated to modders with a forum, not a forum with mod stuff, "ad modum" attacks should be taken seriously.

Also, I'd like to know how HLP's IRC chat is influenced by this new set of rules.

That's a bit late to make that comment, yes? Also, Y no Highlight? This should earn *at least* an highlight, and perhaps everyone should get the memo in pm's.

I've been abroad and I didn't know the rules were changing.

Stuff like what happened on Spoon's forum is definitely covered by the be respectful clause.

As for IRC, it's not affected at all. This covers the forums.

Re: Guideline / ruleset revision - Last chance to comment for now
Indeed, users who attempt to organize concerted campaigns against specific mods out of a personal vendetta should probably face some kind of moderator action.  :rolleyes:

This is going to leave a huge hole in moderation. Why isn't IRC affected at all? It is part of HLP, just like the Wiki and the forums.
