What would happen if we went back to feedback?
Posted: Fri Aug 01, 2008 5:46 pmI know this is a suggestion, but because I always get accused of flaming outside of flame wars (even when I don't flame and other people flame me much worse) I thought I'd better post it in here.
wicked abused the feedback system. Rather than moderating by the guidelines that lackattack had installed, she made up her own rules along the way, depending on who she disliked or who she wanted to give hell. As a result, the system became full of double standards and created more confusion and problems for everybody. Examples of her abuse include:
-Going into my "feedback left" page and deleting about 25 negatives (and neutrals) that she didn't like. When I inquired in an e-ticket as to why she did this, I was told that they use the blanket feedback method every time someone registers a feedback complaint. When I reported numerous negative feedbacks that had been left for me, they deleted the feedback but didn't do the blanket method to the person who had left it. When I inquired as to why they didn't delete all the stupid negatives from that person they didn't like, they told me to mind my own business.
-wicked deleted a negative feedback for me from firth4eva because it was "not game related", even though I wanted it on my record. When I then sent an e-ticket reporting all the stupid negatives bk blunt had on his feedback recieved list, King achilles told me people could recieve negatives if they were okay with it.
-wicked had me on a 2 week ban, and near the end of the ban I asked a player to give me a negative. She kept me on the ban for an extra day until I had to play the bullshit apology card. I didn't even abuse the system by asking for a negative!
-Deleted numerous neutrals that I had left, including this one:
Then when I appealed a neutral I had recieved to King achilles, he told me players could say whatever they want in neutrals.
The list goes on, but basically I think it was wicked that made the feedback system the disaster that it is. If the new ratings system doesn't work out, maybe we can consider going back to feedback, only with a real feedback mod this time.

Missed 2 turns in a speed game. Some moderators would say it is trivial, but I would say it is far from a trivial matter for him to hold up 7 other players like this guy did.
Deleted by moderator for this reason: trivial
