| It's also "undoing" your own rule break, though. At least, to the extent that your "bad" posts no longer exist in the thread, which is what the mods would do anyway. I think that we should encourage people to self-moderate. Also, its sketchy because, at what point does a post officially break the rules? If I write a rule breaking post, am I not allowed to edit it or delete it immediately? How much time does it have to sit in the thread before it's against the rules for me to edit/delete it? 30 seconds, 5 minutes? It's not clear. |

The distinction may not always be apparent, but it's there. Like the Insult topic, I think this is something that could benefit from being further defined. |

| The best way to prevent the topic from being derailed is to 'discuss' the current topic - but right now the only way I see that happening is with a response from the mods towards the current ideas (which aren't that many) or from new people giving their opinions or new ideas. |

MellowJello said: Well to be clear, we just dug up some really grey area things that are worth elaborating on by mods before we go much further. Well, ideally grey is where it should be. And most people apparently agreed with the policy once it was posted and the issue lied in the inconsistency of the mods' actions so most complaints/comments became off-topic.

| Oh, it's no problem for me, I've always been subtle with my insults, I don't need much to get things to work my way, and I don't need to be too colorful to have it my way either. The problem is that with your idea most of the people of MAL would be banned, and I don't think they want to cut off a shitload of the community. And I don't think you know what a "honer" is, but nonetheless, in the small community of IRC everyone is a guest of "honor". |

| You're exaggerating again. And also, gore and insults aren't comparable. As in, gore cannot directly offend somebody and can't really be used to directly offend somebody either. An insult will, most of the times directly offend somebody and can be used as such. Mod Edit: Merged posts, removing off-topic discussion. |

| Thread cleaned. Four pages cleaned... please try to keep the derails and unproductive arguments to a minimum, guys. The more time I spend cleaning this thread, the less time I have to actually address the content in the remaining posts. ____ @XVIII: If you are confused, please reply to the moderator who wrote the PM, asking him the questions that you would like answered. Posting your questions here will lead to further misunderstandings and a public discussion about your offenses, which I don't think you'll want in the end. I am not trying to protect the staff by saying this; I am trying to protect you. If you reply to the moderator saying what you don't understand, I am sure that he will be happy to explain things to you better. _____ Since it's somewhat on topic with my cleaning, let me quickly comment on:
If a user realises that he has gone too far after having a moment or two to calm down, then I think it is a good thing for him to edit his post and tone it down, rather than saying, "what's done is done" *dusts hands*. The problem lies in when the insult has already been quoted and replied to. Then editing your post really doesn't solve the problem. What you could do though (if it hasn't progressed too far), is shoot the user a PM/profile comment apologising for the insult and asking him to modify his post as well, so that the thread doesn't derail. If you can solve the situation in a reasonable manner before the moderators need to intervene, then I don't see an issue with self-moderation. The moderators are not called to inflict punishments just for the sake of, but to settle disputes and enforce order where it has been lost (or soon will be). If you resolve the issue with the user on your own - and the thread is not disturbed - then I don't see a problem. The only problems I see right now arise when you: a) are attempting to be a moderator (i.e. trying to correct someone else's violations that are none of your business); or, b) delete your own posts without attempting to resolve the situation you created at all. Then it just looks like you're hiding, not holding yourself accountable. And moderators are here to hold users accountable who won't do this themselves. |
| Hi everyone. I'm curious about this whole topic of insults as some of the things that have been suggested over the course of this thread seem to clash directly with the entire principle of freedom of speech. 1. Isn't the whole idea of an insult purely subjective and based within a specific context? 2. If a person is simply bantering with a friend, is it right that a third party who has nothing to do with their discussion finds what they are saying to each other offensive and thus one or both are banned? 3. Some people find what others have to say insulting - regardless of the language they have used - so what actually counts as an insult in the first place? 4. Personal attacks aren't limited to forum discussions. What about profile comments, private messages, and even reviews? 5. What happens if you give a series a perfectly valid opinion that clashes with the belief of the more rabid elements of the fanbase, and are then subjected to a barrage of abuse on your profile or in messages? Will those guilty of this kind of behaviour be banned? 6. What if a person decides to form a club whose sole purpose is to insult people who are giving their honest opinion in a review or discussion by subjecting them to a barrage of abuse? Will the creators and members of a club like this be banned? What about members who do not take part in any abusive behaviour? 7. I like the idea of self-moderation, but is it actually a feasible policy given that the majority of MAL users are little more than children and thus more subject to emotional upheavals and more prone to "feeling insulted" by relatively innocuous comments? 8. How do your rules apply to things like club discussions? 9. Can you be sure that banning someone for a short time will cause them to change their behaviour towards others? 10. If a person does not behave in a reasonable and mature manner, will you permanently ban them with no change in this decision regardless of personal pleas, petitions or assurances from the person banned that they have changed? 11. What will you be doing about historical insults, some of which may date back several years? 12. What happens if someone simply reacts badly to something said to them, but has no actual intent to cause harm and is doing nothing more than acting out? (Again, I refer to the fact that the majority of MAL users are children) Apologies if some of those questions have already been answered already -17 pages is a lot to read. My main purpose in asking those questions to to highlight the fact that what has been discussed here in this thread is little more than a symptom of a greater problem, and those that are more likely to break whatever rules are laid down are actually pretty easy to spot. While I agree with the principles of what you're trying to achieve in this discussion, I think that the approaches given are more work than they need to be. The suggestion of following Youtube's example (three strikes), is a pretty good one if you combine it with the ability to appeal the decision. This allows for analysis of the context and moderation of the issue as the perpetrator's intent may have been very different to the victim's reaction. To be honest, if the purpose of this discussion is construct a set of standardized rules of behaviour for MAL users then you need to take into account more than just the discussions in the forums. There are many factors that lead to the insulting or abusive behaviour here on the internet, and while I agree that racist, sexist, homophobic or abusive comments of any sort should not be tolerated the admins and mods also need to consider why that person may be acting or reacting in a certain way. It may be that they are simply not aware of the rules, or of the fact that many of these types of behaviour are now prosecutable offences in many countries - with punishments ranging from fines to custodial sentences (i.e. prison). Given that factor, it may actually be a better idea for the admins and mods to simply lay down a set of ground rules for behaviour on the site in general, and then modify these over time and with discussion, reflection, the information gained through the appeals system I mentioned earlier, and whatever other factors may come into play in the future. MAL users may moan and complain about the changes at first, but after a few months it will become the norm and those complaints will generally be forgotten. In essence it's mirroring how laws are made and modified, and if that system can work for countries then why not here? |

| @Archaeon: My goodness, quoting every question would be a pain in the patootie, so I'll just answer it by numbers. As for your the lower portion, yes. There is a large problem that needs to be fixed, and it's super evident with all the users banned for some of the weirdest things, while the ones responsible (Usually the thread makers) appear to get away free. I know it's everyone's responsibility to not post at all, when "bait" occurs, but... yeah no, that's not gonna happen with this age group. You have it wrong. We're not constructing a set of rules, we're only changing what's already there. So for now, we can't particularly tackle that larger "meta" problem. Instead we can only make a stop-gap solution that'll make some (but not everyone) happy. And for everything else, let me try to explain. This is the first time in memory that we've ever had a discussion like this. I'm not even kidding. Read Kineta's first post. They're opening themselves up to have this discussion. And they're doing something new by trying it. As described before, they would just handle policy changes internally, rather than with the userbase. I might've demanded a lot in the beginning (removing bans on insults entirely), but the goal is to make compromises on what can and can't be changed. And depending on how this thread turns out, it might be a stepping stone for something bigger, or just a lost cause. We'll find out soon. edit: added spoiler tags because it was a major eyesore. |

On that note, since they might've been unable to reply back to you after you logged out, perhaps let them know that they can pm you.Um Kineta, I doubt this: Kineta said: He hasn't replied to me...I am sure that he will be happy to explain things to you better. I wasn't insulting anyone, I was just guessing aka playing the game but ok. Also, I would assume the nature of your posts according to "playing" the game were offensive enough to warrant a 1) report from another user and 2) bad enough that they were deleted. |
XVIII said: ...So you admitted you were insulting :/Yeah which is weird cus I've said more offensive thangs before but only got an insult warning in the Forum Games section.

| Kineta said all this: "Insulting a user is an offense, but insulting an idea is not. Direct insults are all rule violations; e.g. "<username> is a cunt". Indirect insults are taken in context; e.g. "anyone who thinks that is a dumbass". Yes, "you're dumb/stupid/an idiot" are insults. Even if you use them colloquially, other users do not. Threads have ended in flamewars over a simple "you're an idiot" post - sometimes even by users who weren't the target." But you can't define an insult better than this. It's the same shit. Certain words that are used as insults remain insults. |

Hmmm, I think what Kineta was trying to get at is that we should be discussing what to do after a post has been recognized as an insult, everybody has different ways of defining ''insult'' but it doesn't really matter when the statement deeming the post an insult can't be questioned to begin with. Basically, we need to (try to) discuss what should be done in terms of moderation for a post that regardless of content and maybe even context has already been deemed an insult. |

Strictly speaking, calling someone (A MAL user) conceited, pretentious, arrogant, bigoted, uniformed, irrelevant, etc. has no place in any discussion. That should only be your opinions towards anyone other than MAL users - celebrity, figure-heads, fictional characters. ":I don't like you" is an insult but it's not a personal attack. This isn't about insulting words. This is about personal attack. Once you say something directly to a person, it's automatically a personal attack. (Unless if it's a friend, knows your joking, whatever but still these shouldn't be done in any discussion threads in MAL unless if it's a spam discussion such as the chat threads) "That's pretty pathetic" Isn't a personal attack. You are citing an opinion on whatever they said "That's pretty pathetic for a guy like you". Key word here is YOU. This is automatic personal attack. "I don't like you" Not a personal attack even if there's a you. You are not attacking them. You are posing your opinion that you do not like them but it doesn't show any negative connotation. Simply speaking, this is not a specific statement. There could be many reason why you do not like them.. ETC. I don't really care about insulting words. People can find words insulting. Hey someone could find "penis" and insulting word but unless you say, "your opinion is invalid because you have a small penis huehue" then I do not see any problems with insulting words by themselves. |

MajinSaga said: Thanks for your opinion! Now on the topic of opinions, feel free to to contribute and suggest a change to MAL's insult policy.MAL users are such pussies. "ZOMG he called me an asshole, mod please ban him before I cry myself to sleep". If they're sending you death threats and that type of shit, than it's an issue. |
