#h2dm 2

I have deleted IRC channel #hl2dm because of the unbelievable amount of racist and sexist garbage going on there. I thought the channel was to promote the game, not the the KKK!
There is no one willing to make #hl2dm an all inclusive gaming chat room, so im encouraging all who disagree with this nonsense, to stay away from this chat room.

I dont care about backlash on this. After all this the Internett!
Hate me for all i care!!

Impala I agree with you. There are times when the conversation goes decidedly downhill and I tune out as well.

why not just ban the offenders?

Even if you end up banning half the room... It's still better than just no room at all no?

That's a point Conflict. But there are people trying to get more people in the channel not less.

I understand Impalas being offended by some of the convos going on at times but the other 30 people in the room either think its funny, or they don't care. I just go do something else, like play when I get bored of the converstion or it holds no interest for me.

I am not sure if we want the ops to have to start being policeman in the channel nd coming down with a hard fist on the "offenders". I suppose we do to some extent though. But we are not watching every minute to make sure everyone plays nice. Most of the people in there old enough to not act like children. On the other hand I have never seen any dicussion on what is "correct" behavior/conversation in the channel other than the fact the Grape gets banned a lot. I have also seen a lot of shit talk back and forth and no one gets banned for it. Do they need to be? I really am not sure.

In any case there probably should be an informal set of guidelines for ops to follow when people get out of line.

well yeah most of the time all the stuff that WT doesn't allow to be said here is said there... so it's a fight to see who talks more bullshit =/
I understand what you say impala... but I also agree with conflict... maybe admins in there should be a bit more strict about it.

Ventrilo room is also going bye bye. That is not the subject here. Using N word to describe your boorishness is not the same thing.

This thread is about someone policing themselves, someone administrating the space or me turning my back on this nonsense.
I did not name names.

I also do not include a certain Ventrilo chat room. That is yours to be the biggest moron you can possibly be, at others expense. So enjoy your 1st amendment rights.

#hl2dm should ask that random convos go to their own personal channels

like #redlight for N word talk
and #Emmawatson for grape talk

well maybe they are, thats a pointless generalisation; a bit like saying SOME americans are (insert insult here)? :twisted:

on another note there seems to be less talk about the game or interesting talk coming forward lately due to some people monopolising the conversation :(

This is pretty much how it goes
<sisterFISTER> 'insert random generalisation here'
<'insert butt hurt person'> waaahh
<sisterFISTER> 'insert random generalisation insult here' + butt plug
<'insert butt hurt person'> waaahh

If you don't wanna be stupid, don't take anything sisterfister says seriously he basicly just says random words anyway. If you do you might end up on his gayder list.

Yes there us much irony, sarcasm, and facetiousness. If you are not tuned in to such things you may be offended.

I don't care for the racism, but it's not my call.

well I may need to leave that channel and create my own channel so it can be useful, Fearsome and ko seem to think that activity no matter what it is, is better then none, i.e Grape being retarded or sister calling everyone in the channel a fag etc etc

And just as it would, the number of idlers has grew peaked and now is declining

Fearsome*

2008-07-14 21:12:40

The channel is for hl2dm pointed conversation. I was not there to see what was going on but it should stay generally on target if it is not many people have admin to correct the situation, stoop cut it out. I am however lenient in that I do tend to give people second chances.

Hmmm. If I don't want to be stupid!?!?!?! What kind of logic is this? He can go on and on and be as offensive as he wants and I am stupid?

Next, SisterFister and his big mouth will be some kind of victim because someone challenges his idiocy.


EDIT: This last part is retracted out of respect.

So if i were to make him an idiot, than i would be brilliant?!?! OK.
Want to think this through again?
I never tried to make Sister not an idiot. I just want to know why he acts like that. I am curious why he lacks the filter that most have.

Whatever. Im over it'

The discussions there, do get more random than an AOL teen chat lobby. All we need next is a few sex predators to hit on grape or something and we are there. If people are gonna talk make sure its about hl2dm or take that shit somewhere else. Smack talking does not make you better or cooler either, so cut that shit out you are doing much worse to the community than you think!

Does it really matter in the grand scheme of things? He acts like that cause he can. He doesnt want to have a filter, he feels that the "rules" (for lack of a better term) most of us live by dont apply to him. The more you go against him the more he pushes back, its just the way he is. W/E to each his own.

As i stated earlier in channel, only thing ill warn or ban for is listing hacks or exploits (etc). Aside from that, i wont be doing any form of passive or requested moderation- any perceived offenses that arent directly League-related are of no concern to me.

Also, for those without ops powers- theres an ignore function, feel free to put it to good use.
