virus: post mortem
« on: 2003-08-20 08:43:24 » |

Metahuman (aka Demon) was Silenced for one week for an unambiguous personal attack.
Joe Dees was Silenced for one week for flooding the list. I used the flooding charge against Joe because it was unambiguous (32 messages in a 24 hour period) and it was the easiest way to restore order to the list.
Are there any other unambiguous violations that I missed and should be dealt with in the interests of fairness?

Ah the Silence of the memes.
quote taken from virus: here comes the sheriff by David Lucifer
The recent conflict on the list has escalated to the point where I am forced to lay down the law before it is ready. The plan was to use the new reputation system (or something like it) to establish CoV policy including rules concerning proscribed behaviors in the public forums and measures for dealing with transgressors.
In the meantime, since I have the power to do so I will lay down my own law, wild west style. Once the new system is in place we will be able to ratify it or amend it as much as needed.
As of now we will not tolerate personal attacks in any CoV forum (including the list, BBS, and #virus channel). I won't bother defining what constitutes a personal attack, we have seen many examples lately, and ultimately (for now) it is up to me to decide so err on the side of caution. Anyone breaking this rule (in my view) will suffer The Silencing for a period of one week on their first offence. This means they will be unsubscribed from the mailing list, their account will be disabled on the BBS by changing the password, and they will be banned from the #virus channel. In other words, they will be unable to participate in any CoV public forums (though they are free to read the archives as a non-member). On the second offence the period will double to 2 weeks, and will double again for every offence after that.

I suggest that we wait until the week of silencing is up before we really try to Post mortem this anymore more if at all. My only diagnosis at this point is the following: Joe Dees was silenced for long-term disruptive behavior on the Church of the Virus, the current episode being only a single instance of this history. Demon/Metahuman was sanctioned for behavior relating to his participation in this particular episode. I have stated my case against Dees. I personally have no complaint against Demon/Metahuman as I never suggested any action be taken against him. Whatever transgressions he may or may not have committed against me, I really don't care, since the ongoing behavior of the Dees was my primary focus. I am still willing to consider person to person in offlist email any lingering complaints that some may have about my own behavior. Joe of course can expect that I will be deleting/ignoring any off list communications from him. As I understand the silencing, the silenced person can still read the public portions of CoV which includes this Email list.

I just got a question. What does it mean when you "silcence" someone? Does
that mean that they don't recieve posts and cannot post? I never heard that
term before.
Thanks!
