The plague is spreading. Immediate action needs to be taken.

[Contaminated 129]

Now don't jump to conclusions here, I'm not blaming moderators nor am I discussing their work. But I am here to address a serious issue.

 

As some people have noticed, there has been a massive outbreak of 'trolls' and nothing has been done towards stopping them.

Let me show you:

Now these are only a FEW examples of trolling and abuse found on the off-topic section.

 

And most of you are thinking "but conta, aren't you a troll" well lets say there are different types of trolls. In case you haven't noticed, I usually keep my business with the rules, while the rest are breaking them.

 

What are they doing?

Making stupid topics (flooding)

Swearing, abuse

Making fake clans

And they don't learn from their bans.

 

The problem I have is that such topics have been created numerous times without moderator attention for DAYS. And I must propose that more english forum moderators are hired, specifically ones that live in different time zones or are able to moderate at different times.

Man their isn't enough English players what they gonna do let you me the mapmakers the reporters and everyone else they know would do something about this become mods?

I agree with ya but I don't see a solution with out a mass influx of at least 3-5 new mods who can be on regularly enough to handle this. And most people don't seem to read that whole line in the rules about trolling/abusing players, nor do most the mods as it seems. This stuff doesn't happen on the Russian forum. And while I don't care so much for off topic I do general.

[cheap_plastic_flower 154]

So what you trying to tell us ?

 

I nominate you as a Moderator, Contaminated.

 

I know everyone in the English forum would enjoy being under your thumb.

 

Once you have cleaned up this "pit of depravity and evil"; you can show everyone

how to use MEME pics and GIANT pics.

 

I agree 100%. Hire more Moderators. Everyone in Tanki can Paypal them a dollar.

*** (Hmmm ... really that is not a bad idea. Words are dandy, but cash is handy.) ***

 

I hang out in the Russian forums, Beastie. They are filled with people like Contaminated.

 

Always in a rage about something.

Does NOBODY know how to properly deal with the trolls?!

 

Nobody?!?!

 

Please, stop feeding them!

Let the moderators to discover their heinous work in a PM or such, but stop flooding our forum with your replies and complains about why he keeps coming back for more!

It is just as bad as the trolling itself!!

Really? Shadow they know whats going on that is the point.

[cheap_plastic_flower 154]

Heinous work ?

 

We are going to extremes aren't we ?

 

I agree 100%. Stop feeding those trolls !!

 

We can use that bandwidth and storage space to post more MEME pics.

 

I suspect that Tankionline has only two 500 megabyte hard drives.

 

We don't want to run out of disk space in the Forum do we ?

 

That would be the end of all of us !!

 

P.S. Contaminated

 

Remove your pic from my post and I will remove "your" pic from yours.

 

Then you can GO AWAY !!

First off you must not hang out in Russian forums their General forum is Generally cleaned up/locked of flood/useless topics more often than here which is what I am talking about the troll topics like I hate Tanki for such and such blah blah blah.

 

Second Hire don't mean pay them no mods gets paid to my understanding. Topics which need be locked or deleted can go half a day or better unnoticed.

 

Swearing, abuse

Making fake clans

^

should be taken more seriously and I am talking about the more serious of these not the petty childish stuff.

[cheap_plastic_flower 154]

Ahhhh ... whatever you said.

 

I agree with you 100%.

[Contaminated 129]

cheap just shut up, you are one of these trolls that are plaguing our forums, and your sarcasm is not appreciated here.

[king_beast88 19]

It's no use contaminated I was being dead serious about some underlying issues and well he is his normal self.

Does anyone else see the irony between the OP's name and the topic's title?

I like it, someone that doesn't take this whole internet game too seriously.

Thanks for giving those topics the highlight.

Letter to the Admin:

 

It is in the English forum.

 

It appears that Koolwalky, the moderator, has chosen to ban me over what is in reality ... humour.

 

I just reply to the repeated flames, the insults, the profanity and respond.

 

I don't believe that any one in the English forum understands exactly what TROLLING is in this case.

 

I realize I am dealing with children most times. I am always extremely careful.

 

I think Mr. Koolwalky should start dealing with the FACTS and stop basing his BANS on popular opinion

and long time friendships.

 

I am saying that he is BIASED at times.

 

Thank you.

[mydogrover 16]

Why isn't this post LOCKED. It is obvious trolling.

[r_AdvocatusDiaboli0 861]

Conta was banned yesterday for what he's been doing, your argument is invalid. Also, This is not trolling, obviously, you do not know what trolling it....

[Raphael2 3,263]

I agree !
