Because remarks in Spanish can not be translated to the letter to English and it may have a different definition in English.
My mother tongue is Spanish I understand what the slang means very well.
that remark may or not be offensive depending on the context it was posted.
so I tried to be polite but the user's response was even more rude.
now we have to think twice if we want or not want to use the
"blocking system" Ignore System
if the user we're blocking has a long term thread in that forum we will be seeing that
topic block notice in red letter at the bottom of the page. i think its like a punishment for both sides for him and for me, like a double dagger.
The user was reported. second post was deleted. user was blocked.
my problem is i still have to see his first Post #20
also my thread followers/lurkers may react and curse him for that post. A post deletion will be the appropriate move to avoid further incidents.
you mention the potential for a abuse is too great because users will use that power to silence others?
Well they already do that.
In sitefeedback its against the rules asking users to leave .
"If you don't like my idea you can GTFO".
You don't need to ask a users to shut their months when they disagree with your ideas, you just put them on your ignore list.
#27 Is it the same thing as silence them, to keep their mouths shut ?
You have to acknowledge that there is a problem with the ignore system.
Okay, yes. i do have some ideas on how to improve it. If you allow me I'll just post them here in next AtAs, its the most i can do for this site. even if you dont like my ideas.
i do not want you to give him more warnings.
as i stated in my previous post.
In the past moderators have deleted 2 of my posts without any warning.
plus the Post Deletion in Bug Report & Technical Support by a Community Member
so I really don't see a problem if you deleted that post in question. Report #15866401
If not , I really have to insist on that forum delete Button.
You say you can't delete a post you request to be deleted in your forum but they can delete other posts in Chatterbox forum and Bug Report & Technical Support for no reason,no warning and randomly.YEAH They'll Delete your post when they want to for no Reason nor Warning given, but if When you Request a post Deletion to avoid further incidents you Say you Can't do it ...it's not right, i know its your Site but I am the Thread Creator and it is my Thead. it is my responsibility and my obligation to moderate my own forum. As for the Long Term Thread I would Suggest that Thread Creators Request a Moderator to review their forum every 3-6 months.
The questions I would like to ask in AtA may sound rethorical but they are not.
Im asking them for a reason:
#28
Why is it alright for a mod to delete a post of mine with no warning and told no reason but when I request a post to be deleted that is disrupting my forum, my request is declined?
#29
Why is it alright for a Community Member to delete other people's posts in forum 47 & Forum 355 ?
#30
Not every post in Chatterbox is Spam!! so Why is it alright for a Community Member to delete other people's posts in forum 23 ,Chatterbox ?
our voices should be heard
