My apologies, Dual Bladers
Apparently this section has been encountering several trolls lately. I haven't managed to find all of them and I need your help- if you see more please contact me directly via PM. This section has always been troll-prone thanks to the (in my opinion irrational) grudge people have against Bladers and their apparent (definitely irrational ) need to punish all of you.
We didn't get to the trolls quickly enough and have received abuse from you. Those who didn't call us out can now sit back and relax since I'm not addressing them, but I'd like the ones who called us horrible or bad or expected us to jump to their case the minute after they'd submitted their reports and the people who liked their comments to consider [url=http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb309/Touzokuou/Reportsqueue.jpg]this[/url].
As you can see there were well over 800 reports on top of yours. Of course you couldn't know about this, but jumping to conclusion and calling us "horrible" etc isn't fair IMO. By demanding our presence and muttering at us you only bumped the threads allowing more people to be trolled- which probably wasn't what you wanted.
Don't get me wrong, there should never have been this many reports in the queue in the first place, but we're seriously understaffed and can't moderate efficiently at the moment. Please have patience because sooner or later we'll get to it, but not yet. o.o I'll be done with college by Thursday next week, then I'll be able to moderate at full power again.
However since this section has more troll threads than other job sections I'm making an exception; if you see a troll thread here feel free to PM me about it so I can clean it up. In the mean time try to otherwise ignore troll threads as much as possible. Cussing out the troll harms you more than him because he is expecting you to cuss him out and get suspended for it. You won't hurt him, you'll only hurt you.

I rather like the DB myself.
Hm.
Guess I'm not a Shadower At Heart after all. XD (no really, that "Shadower at heart" stuff is annoying)
[quote=onigiri123]I applaud you.
@Pavchka: Out of curiosity, when we report someone, why does it ask us to write a description ('cept for detailed needs)? If there was a 'choice/ticking' method, it would be easier for you to prioritise certain breaches.[/quote]
I [i]think[/i] users are asked to include a description to speed things up, so the moderator won't have to venture into the thread to look for context and can quickly deal with large amounts of reports by suspending from the queue. I hardly do that because yeah, no context. >_> If there's one flamer, there's generally two flamers, or three, and if only one flamer has been reported, the other two will get away. That's where the many complaints of us being biased come from.
I agree with you though. Just ticking a box with a rule would make things quicker for you as well as us, besides people pretty often don't add useful report comments, but insert emoticons or "He's a poopyhead" and things like that.
A hierarchy in the queue would be nice as well, so urgent stuff isn't covered by hundreds of misplaced threads, "this" and memes.
@onigiri123 I think that's a really good idea.

Well I'm glad to hear you're going to clean the section up a bit.
@iHezDied Good job.
[quote=WoahItsGuyyy]Why don't you cry about it, that would help.[/quote]
*trashes around shaking fists and feet into all directions* WAAAAAAAAAAAAH! That is MEAN!
Actually I am doing something which helps.
@onigiri123: Frankly it's my job to stop people from breaking rules regardless of whether people find what they're doing "interesting" or not. I don't have a say in that. The threads by the major troll don't offend me in the least and don't annoy me either, but they are against the rules so I have to take care of them.
Shame, the trolls made this section interesting.
[quote=NightLordz]Pav is definetely a guy... isn't he? Ignore my ignorance sorry Pav for not reading your post...[/quote]
Hm...
OMG THANKIES TO ALL OF UZZZ! Ur so adooorable! <33333 Sugoi and I luv u! XOXOX x3
Typing like would put all doubts about my gender to bed, but... [b]IT BURNS![/b] </3 I now have no choice but to detox by playing a nice gory game of Unreal Tournament.
[quote=puretppc]Thanks so much @Pavachka. Wanna make more mods maybe so that we can take care of as many trolls maybe?[/quote]
That'd solve a lot of problems. Alas I'm not really sure what MrB's up to. He's working something out but I'm not up-to-date.
[quote=aaronthecow]I would talk dirty at you why must we be worlds apart D:[/quote]
You can always talk dirty to me on the Facebook group, honeybuns. <3
[quote=LongKatara]Your not the only one.[/quote]
I'm having real trouble keeping a very inappropriate joke in for which I'd have to suspend myself for at least a day if I posted it.
As far as PMing me is concerned: I can be PMed like any other Basiler; only Mr can't be PMed (and previously Eeveepony, but she quit). I'll get to it as soon as possible.
Thank you so much, those troll posts were getting really annoying.

^That's one
[quote=Pavchka]Back when I signed up in 2005 I accidentally ticked the box "male" when you couldn't pick genders for your characters yet. I was never an "EEEWWWWWW MALE YUCKY BOYS COOTIES UCK DON'T WANT TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH THEM" kind of person so I didn't abandon the acount in favour of a female one. Being a guy in game has its benefits. Nobody talks dirty at me. XD[/quote]

That's why he's my favorite mod. Also that Pony chick. She's cool too.
@Pavchka: For a second, I read that as Bladder.
[quote=mapleshifter]@Pavchka: thank you <3 <3 <3 <3[/quote]
No problem, I only do that when people are posting the VERY nasty links or racism or so. Nothing of the kind on your records, only links that were a little bit nasty- and I'm fully resistant to them rickrolls because I own a Casio CA-100 digital keyboard which literally invented the rickroll.
@Pavchka: thank you <3 <3 <3 <3
[quote=mapleshifter]i hope i don't get involved, because i've been suspended wrongly before.[/quote]
On first glance I don't see any invalid suspensions on your record (lots of quite recent spamming and attacking though- strange since you indicated on several occasions that you do know the rules), but as long as you don't flame the trolls you should be good as far as this case is concerned.
No worries, I'm not going to check your posting record to look for something.
i hope i don't get involved, because i've been suspended wrongly before.

She's a girl IRL. Her name on Facebook attests to that pretty well.
OT: Thanks Pav
Shad group lurves you.

[quote=OneRockGod]Did you get @iHezDied yet? Biggest of them all.[/quote]
His threads were the one the Facebook Shadower warned me about, yeah. o.o She pointed out four bizarre threads by him that involved scamming and gold digging. Those never fail.
