Can I please have a moderator answer these questions.Sad

Without using names, because I won't know them, can you explain in a synopsis sort of way...
1) What is this rogue mod I keep hearing about?

2)What is Trolling?

3)Why are so many recent threads been locked? a)Why is locking a thread considered "bad"? b)What are the "set in stone" qualifications for locking a thread?

4)Is there some fued between this site and ??Gamers??.

5)If at all possible, how can I help with getting things cooled down?

1. There was a moderator who did some stuff he should not have done. It's over now, and the particulars are no one's business but the people running the site, and the people affected by the wrongdoing. Just ignore the drama since it's over and didn't affect you.

2. Trolling is posting intentionally inflamatory or insulting content just to stir people up.

3. Threads get locked because they're turning into bickering or headed that way, or redundant. There are no set in stone rules--moderators use their best judgement to decide.

4. No. There is no feud. Gamers owner, and a few of the major contributors are unhappy about how some other users here have treated them, and about how the owner of Bloomilk has responded to it. But there's generally no hard feelings the other way, and the number of people with any issues at all about either site is microscopic and a signicant number of people contribute to and use both.

5. You can't. It's really between two people, and there's no reason for you to worry about it.

One question you didn't ask and I forgot to mention.

Some people use "trolling" and "smurfing" interchangably because they're often linked. They're really two things though.

"smurfing" is creating multiple accounts to hide who you are, often so you can troll anonymously or make it look like other people agree with you.

Bloomilk has a history of problematic smurfing, generally used to incite a few specific people. So there's some understandable paranoia about who people "really are" you'll come across due to that known history of smurfing. Bloomilk has cracked down a lot on that, but proving it's over for good will take time.

I actauly thought Smurfing was just on bloomilk and was the same as a troll, I thought since smurfs are blue and we're on bloo milk... they were called smurfs, I mean lets be honest if they weren't tiny and have cute voice and have 1 with blonde hair they would be pretty freaky to little kids.. bit like a trollConfused

I know this has nearly nothing at all to do with your questions but thought after yesterday we could all do with a little comedy and messing around

Nickname has answered your questions pretty well. My advice, is try to ignore the drama if you are not involved. Trust me, as someone who can't, it only kills your enjoyment of the site.

And I will give you an example of my thought processes in locking this thread. Your questions have been answered, so there is no real point of this thread anymore. And due to my experience with the community (been with the gam since RS and been a part of this forum since it was up), I know that keeping this thread open is tempting fate. I don't like the chances of it staying free of heated arguements, so I will close it, even though you yourself have done nothing wrong.
