Title: We DO NOT edit posts!
Post by: MonkeyIsland on June 17, 2010, 09:46 AM
TUS DOES NOT edit its members posts under ANY circumstances.

We may delete posts, but we DO NOT edit them!

Editing:
- Adding lines.
- Change lines.
- Change the meaning the original post in any way.

This is highly forbidden. If you are a mod in ANY part of the site, Map database, Leagues moderator, Cups, schemes... You are NOT ALLOWED TO change people' posts. You will lose your moderating rights.

so if a post contains an insult plus some useful comments you delete the whole post or you leave the insult as it is?
Because imo edits can be useful in some situations ;d

so why one of the moderator has edited my post? even if there wasn't any insult, and he changed it into post insulting me, and seemed as i could insult myself. I wrote to you about that before, but i have got no answer

+ i haven't got any information that my post had been changed, i found it by accident

@Random00,
depends on the case, by editing we mean changing the meaning of the post.

@Maciej,
Clan boards are different. They are like another forum but hosted on TUS.
I announced it so that we have a written rule for reference in the future.

What about merging double posts? For guys like Maciej who can't find the 'modify' button?  ::)

To avoid insult, susuii clan board (old worms clan) had a filter. For example if I wanted to say:
"f@#! you"
here's what I would have seen:
"[do not insult, you're a bad boy] you".
HHC correct me if i'm wrong ^^.
I always liked it, it could maybe help people.

Hmm, I think so. I recall HoS-board had a code that not only changed abreviations of people's name into their full names, but also changed 'suck' into 'own'. It drove the norwegians crazy  :D

Then why did you post twice instead of just modifying the first one? And none of your posts ever got changed in meaning, be sure about that.

And it only did because I added a sarcastic remark to it, not because of the post itself. Irony, huh?

Use modify fonction anyway Maciej.  :)
Just space your text out, so the different parts will mean different things.

i would hate to see anything i type be filtered into "plz dont insult" or any other kind of filter... that would just pretty lame...


if u ask me, everyone on these forums needs to lighten up... otherwise, lets bring kiro gay ass to TuS and let him run the forums.

I am not provoking you. And I'm not lying. I once changed your post which was nothing but a pure flame-bait without and didn't have a meaning whatsoever. I have received a "kick in the butt" for that today from MonkeyIsland and don't plan to do it anymore. And I'm still calm. Are you calm?

That's cool, you're on your way! :)

And if you feel like talking bad about me, then send me a PM, I promise you won't get banned for that. :)

Which is pretty sad... There should be moderation on forums liek this, at least I think. That doesn't mean moderators have the right to change whatever they want, it means they should sort out posts which are insulting, flames or simply don't meet the standards of the forum.

For instance:


I am not against TUS getting multilingual or people with worse English saying their opinion, I'm rather thinking of a solution like separating those comments somehow (no racism here :-X). Or creating non-English board.

I don't think anything should be censored/modified on this forum. People are responsible for what they post themselves and if some1 decides to act like a asshole why change his writing and make it look like he's a nice person. :)
Title: Re: We DO NOT edit posts!
Post by: Ray on June 18, 2010, 01:42 PM
You are right there, chakk, but the reason would rather be to limit the amount of flame topics on the site, I don't know about you guys, but it's quite disappointing to log on the site and see how everyone insults Zippo and also others. :(
