Site-wide rule changes: 3/2/2014 - kgasso - 03-02-2014 Good afternoon! In preparation for the return of the Debate section of the site, the following two items have been reinstated as site-wide rules effective immediately:
(These rules were temporarily removed from the site-wide rules on 10/13/2013). Thanks, Kam RE: Site-wide rule changes: 3/2/2014 - Scrapper - 03-14-2014 What about posts that a member PURPOSEFULLY makes up... and FALSELY attributes to another member? I have reported the offending post twice... and NOTHING has been done about it. RE: Site-wide rule changes: 3/2/2014 - csrowan - 03-14-2014 I believe that falls under abusing the quoting feature through false attribution. Quote:Trolling: Don't post with the intent to cause negative reactions, to anger others, or to intentionally mislead or confuse. Don't abuse the quoting, editing, and reporting features through means such as false attribution, modifying context, and false or retalitory reporting.

My point was that the offending post has been reported twice in two days... and NOTHING has been done.

Valuesize and Scrapper, do you mind linking the changed posts so I can see them. The most common violation of the rule against false attribution was from posters that prefaced the changes in other peoples posts with "Hey I fixed that for you." I had done it a couple of time myself until I realized it violated the rules. In any case, I don't do it no mo. Really.

Is it really misleading. What I mean is that does anyone actually believe something that was posted by another was what YOU posted. Because I've seen someone complain about People quoting another, changing some words and then saying .. fixed it for ya. When anyone reading it knew full well that the original quote was changed. RE: Site-wide rule changes: 3/2/2014 - csrowan - 03-14-2014 My false attribution violations were back in the days of anarchy. Rules weren't being enforced, and there was a very persistent troll. I would post immediately after the worst trolling remarks, with a quoted post attributed to that user saying "ha, ha! I'm an asshat!" I've never really objected to the "fixed that for you" quotes, as long as the "fixes" are obviously marked. Maybe we should start saying "Are you sure you didn't mean:" then follow up with an unattributed quote.

All the regular posters would know what's up but I don't like someone new getting the wrong idea of me.

I did, scrappers too RE: Site-wide rule changes: 3/2/2014 - csrowan - 03-14-2014 Well, they've been deleted. Not "[redacted]" though. Just gone, as if they never existed. RE: Site-wide rule changes: 3/2/2014 - Someones Dad - 03-15-2014 So, I have posted on the Religion topic, and my posts are, under review? Is this not a place of free dialogue and exchange of ideas? RE: Site-wide rule changes: 3/2/2014 - Someones Dad - 03-15-2014 My goodness. I posted here at the help desk, and still, under review? Who is reviewing what I have to say, and why should my words be subjected so? I was mistaken to think ideas were welcome. RE: Site-wide rule changes: 3/2/2014 - Tiamat - 03-15-2014 I'd welcome them.
