How to get a Formal Warning

Quote from: KaubelWe have our own rules for our own reasons, and yours or any other outside poster’s opinion of them ultimately isn’t a factor.

Regarding the sticky post in question, it’s neither buried nor contradictory. These forums belong collectively to Elitist Jerks, and what (and how) we post is up to us, not you or anyone else. As for signatures, those can be turned off in the user options.

If any of this is unsatisfactory or “laughable” to you, you’re more than welcome to post elsewhere.

Well, I got my reply and I wasn't banned, but as you can see from the highlighted part of his response, just like George Orwell's 'Animal Farm' it appears that 'All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others' as he is quite happy that he is above the rules and can post whatever he wants in whatever manner he wants.

Oh well, another nail in their moderator coffin. Maybe I should go over their and make posts about fat kids, moderators sucking and that I don't care what they think and then sticky the post. Hmmm. Signature first maybe.

why not copy the information over there, and then offer their members somewere more reasonable to discuss things

without spoiled babies acting like moderators, instead of sucking their mums milk?

Not worth the effort G, you seen the size of their 'Banhammer' section? They have put in for overtime on Moderating duties.....

Bravo section. It's a 'Code of Conduct', generally saying you should be a nice lad and lead by good example and not bring any negative attention towards dMw etc.

Aaw, takeing the fun away that way

sheepy · October 05, 2007, 10:45:29 PM

DMW is a MATURE and RESPONSIBLE community and we EXPECT our members to behave such

this is the post

QuoteThe Admins have recently had a number of discussions about the behaviour of some Bravo members which have had an impact in some way upon dMw in a less than positive way. The Admins would like to take this opportunity to remind all members of the following:

General Standards
Please realise that when you are known as a dMw member or are wearing the dMw tag that your actions will reflect upon our community. So when you post in another forum, play on another server, or just kick around in irc, your behaviour and attitude towards others should always be exemplary, irrespective of whether or not the dMw wings happen to be attached to your name.
Far more people than you realise know of dMw and the information and feedback that dMw Admins receive from other clans and server admins comes from far and wide. When you TW or TK someone on another server because they were ticking you off, or when you attack an server admin's decision in public then you'd be amazed at just how often the information gets passed back to us! Your actions have a direct impact upon dMw's reputation!
Forum Standards
Our forums see well over 100 new posts every single day. Many of the forum topics are not seen by Alpha or Bravo Company members as they are private to Charlie, Delta, Admins, TCS Admins, match squads etc. So a member of Bravo may only see about half the forum topics that are there, a member of Charlie may only see three quarters of the forum topics. So for a dedicated member or Admin you can imagine that it can take some considerable time to read through all of the posts on the forums each day. Now ask yourself how other dMw members feel when someone has posted a single word reply to every single topic on the forum. Friendly banter is good but relevant comments are appreciated more, so don't post a reply or comment *just* because you can!
Whiter Than White
Wearing the dMw wings brings with it a responsibility to both the community and competition parts of the clan. We (the members) have worked really hard to establish and maintain dMw's reputation and it does not take too much for a single incident to sully our currently unblemished and enviable reputation.
If you have an issue with another member then speak in confidence to one of the dMw Admins. If it is something we can assist with then we will.
If you have an issue with another clan then speak in confidence to one of the dMw Admins. If it is something we can assist with then we will.
If you disagree with something then take it up with that clan/player/admin privately. Never ever challenge an Admin whilst in game on a server as it will most often lead to that Admin associating the dMw name with 'trouble' and you getting an immediate ban. This in turn is bad for dMw's reputation.
If you get kicked from a non-dMw server you should report the matter to a dMw Admin. Your PM or email should provide details of the incident, the server name and ip, the date and time of the incident and the name of the Admin (if available) who kicked you. If you have any logs or demos please submit these too. Notifying our Admins promptly of these incidents will minimise the risk that dMw's stellar reputation is in any way tarnished. Where appropriate dMw will then follow up on your behalf and this will minimise the chance that you are unfairly banned from another server.
Your membership of dMw is dependent upon you maintaining an exemplary record on all servers, all forums and in all situations. If a member fails to respect the standards to which other members adhere then the Admins will take steps to deal with the situation. Your membership of dMw is a privilege and the Admins can withdraw that privilege if you do not maintain the appropriate standards!

Wear your dMw wings with pride, spread the TCS word and enjoy the game!
