[Query] Spammish Disruptive RP Posting

Postby North Arkana » Mon Aug 13, 2018 3:47 pm

Nearly identical posts made in two different threads with readily identifiable Nazi-esque themes and terminology from a Nazi themed nation, both of which caused rather severe turmoil in the the RP threads they had been posted in. One has nearly died, the other is managing to drag itself along. The terminology isn't really even skirting around things either, going for terms like "International Jewry", using names of Nazi party officials, and describing Hitler as a god.

I know it's all, supposedly, IC, but both have been remarkably disruptive.

Given the posts are virtually identical, it's been addressed for what it is, ×2.

It's called "taking further details into consideration." It happens. Regardless, you have no reason to post here.

And no. It isn't. Spamming is. Feel free to read our post on rules lawyering while you're there.

yet people have posted the same post in multiple threads in the past and no moderation action has been taken

edit: so is it now against the rules to post a news post in a RP thread and post it again in a national news thread?

Were those posts reported? Remember, we judge individual reports individually.

Do you have something to report? If not, you're not the reported party, you're not providing new evidence, and you're not reporting anything - which means you're spamming Moderation.

If the player warned wants to appeal, they can appeal. Otherwise: we handle each and every case exactly as they are: on a case-by-case basis. So. Unless you have something to report, we're done here.

"Nobody has a problem with it" != acceptable to the rules. Regardless. As stated, using a news template isn't spamming; even posting relevant content to an RP and your own newswire isn't. Spamming threads with virtually identical posts under a thin veneer of IC, is.

We're done here. iLock.
