The forum warning system - Restavegas case

[Windarossa]

[color=#810541]1st of all it all...blanka09 never was involved to begin with in this whole situation, VF came to me one night and told me Restavega was calling him names and he wanted him to stop but i was to tired to handle the situation right their and now and just let it as it....i TOLD him to tell Restavega to stop or ELSE warnings would be given and they were by WARMOR not blanka09.

just because Restavega and Blanka09 don't see eye to eye he decide to blame the warnings on blanka09 when in fact is was good'ole Warmor who gave Restavega the warning block. for false acusations we discussed the matter and Warmor was the 1st to decide that if he didn't listen we WOULD ban Restavega.

[b]You didn't answer anything in your post.

If Restavega was making false accusations because he believed the things he was saying were true, and obviously you knew otherwise, why didn't you set him straight by talking to him?

Restavega couldn't have known who those warnings came from and because he wasn't fully informed he made the same mistake.

Warmor gave him a warning block, ok. But this warning block didn't come with a full explanation. So Restavega, not knowingly, made the same mistake. So why not give him another warning block like Sbyrd and plenty of others have. Why just ban him 30 seconds after warning him? Not even giving him enough time to realize who is mad at him and why.

How does this warning system work exactly? And what happened in Restavegas case? Nferno, what

[Nferno666]

he was actually given 2 warnings..one by me sent by VF then we viewed the PM he sent us in the MOD PM section so Warmor Warned him with the block....after the warning block came the post in which Restavega decided to put the full blame on blanka09 even though he never did anything to begin with. after that we had the discussion from the PM and since he disobey my warning and Warmor's we put Warmor's punishment into affect.

[Nferno666]

try not double posting :biggrin:

She IM'ed me the link wanting my answer....

[dominicankid098]

Oh my god. Another topic about Restevega? Get over it. I swear, I don't think this guy is worth much attention. There are email, pms, and instant messaging. Stop trying to make this public.

Bunmi > Restevega

I say we get Bunmi back.

VF never said that he spoke to you and that he was carrying an official warning (i wouldn't believe him even if he did, his not a mod).

He was banned 30 seconds after he got a block. And he tells me he never sent a mod pm, so he doesn't have any idea what you are saying about that.

He was never told that it wasn't blanka, as i said again you banned him 30 seconds after warmor gave him the block. He had absolutly no idea what that block was for. He though it was for saying Virch, thats why he got heated. You can't possible blame him, he didnt know anything at all!

My mistake then, Nferno. This forum acting up on me with the double posts and I tried to delete one of them I ended up deleting both.

But to comment on this situation, why put 1 block if the next action will be a banment? That doesn't make sense. What is the difference between one block and five blocks if you can be banned in a drop of a hat? The warning blocks should go if they are not going to be used effectively.

EDIT

You are right, Wind. You can't leave warnings up to interpretation. They should've been specific as to what Restavega did wrong in particular to earn that warning block. Restavega said alot of things in the post he got warned for.

You don't need to step on poop to know it smells.


This was the same case, he didn't need to disobey 5 times in the same case to get banned.

Where as someone like sybrd has done 2 diffeernt things to gain him 2 different blocks, restevega kept pushing the same issue.

[dominicankid098]

Well why should a person have a "5 strikes your out"? Why would a person do something to get a warning? To piss of the mods and admins? Please, I say if you do anything after one strike, you get the ground out. Baseball talk. :p

[Nferno666]

lol...the system might want 5 blocks but in times such as bumai only 1 is required.

@windarossa

umm i said VF sent the PM to us about the situation, Restavega never sent one at all. i Don't know how long the block was their since i jsut got homr from work that day and less then 30 secs i get an IM from VF linking me to the topic, i expect Restavega to at least listen to the messeage VF sent him about stopping the whole name calling but he didn't...Warmor sent him a warning and knowing warmor he probably told him the reasons on why he was warned and if he didn't then that's something i'll have to talk to him about...as for the misunderstanding of blanka09 and restavega and him not knowing the reason of his warning from warmor just have him email Support@streetfighteronline.com and we'll settle the unbanning, BUT i suggest Restavega and VF stay away from one another to avoid more chaos...if any one has a problem with a certain member of the forum just use the MOD PM section or email support@streetfighteronline.com and warnings will be given by me personally instead of having a mod do it via the warning block since that does not mention which mod warned you unless they leave comments and sign their names on it as they SHOULD...that should fix the whole blame game of who did what to who from now on.

[Dark_Paladin_X]

Personally. I would like to see him unbanned, though i don't that's gonna happen. I don't think there is much to do to bring him back. The "authorities" (why not not mention 1 person, cuz it COULD involve all of them) don't seem like they will change their mind.

Although they MIGHT not have gotten/understood the whole situation that lead to start of the last "confrontation", whihc led to the warning box and ban.

They might be considering that as "admissable" evidence. Since it probably wasn't dealt with properly.

Sorry windarossa. Like i mentioned above, i would liek to see him unbanned. I just have a feeling that it won't happen. I still think this whole thing could've been dealt wiht in a different manner.

Anyway. I'm out. Check yal tomorrow.

[Windarossa]

well, if other people get that luxury why cant Restavega?

As i understand Nferno said he got two warnings, one by VF, one by a block. okay, so thats two blocks. How did Five blocks get filled up in two posts, 30 seconds between eachother? Not to mention VF posted "Call me Virch and youll be punished", right before rest got banned. So he though that Blanka gave him a Block and than Banned him for saying Virch.

No one bothered to clear up anything...



edit*** read your post nferno... understood.
hopefully these ordeal will be worked out and both vf and rest will stop the arguing

[blanka09]

[Nferno666]

[comments here]

if for any reason the person who warned you didn't sign their name on it contact me and i'll tell you who warned you :biggrin:

[blanka09]

Or you could just use the "pm a mod" function if the bum is not around, and we'll get to it as soon as possible :biggrin:

[Windarossa]

Thanx a lot guys, for clearing this whole thing out. :laugh:

Hopefully this whole mess, that was build on confusion and misanderstanding will be resolved and we can all live happily ever after. :D

[Warmor]

Yeah, I opend it, just for a second, I have not gotten a chance to say anything about any of this, and since my name came up, might as well explain what I did, and what I do here.

I am on the forum, constantly. You probably see my name all the time. When the mods get a PM sent to us, I usually go right to them, and try to take care of everyone as soon as I can. This time, I saw the post by VF. It had a link, I checked it out. I looked into our other resources. Everything checked out, so I just gave a forum warning. When I give forum warnings, I hide nothing. When I say or do something, there is ALWAYS a reason, and you can rest assured, I always look at the BIG picture and walk in everyones shoes. I pride myself in that. So whenever I issue a warning block, I give an explaination as to why I am doing it, and I NEVER do it anonamously. No matter if it's to someone with just 5 posts, or someone that has been here 3 years. I stand by my decisions.

But I do take responsibility for him not knowing it was me. Granted, that does NOT give him the right to disrespect and flame any MOD (or anyone, for that matter). I was under the impression that when a forum warning block was given, it gave the name of the MOD who did it, thus why I never "signed my name". I would always just put a detailed explaination and that was all.

So, what have we learned? You can always be sure I KNOW WHAT I'M DOING, and I ALWAYS put an explaination. Even if you didn't know who gave the warning, you would ALWAYS know WHY you got it, there is NO EXCUSE for ANYONE there. But I have also now learned to put my name at the end, since I didn't know, and end any confusion. Now...I will close this back up, and Wind can re-open it if she deems the need to.
