Player: "i pop i quit"

Hey, fuck this guy. This mans been ruining radius pubs. He can't go 30 seconds from the start of the game without popping and then leaves his team 3v4. Feel like this is some form of WAOT. This isn't a witch hunt. It's an unregistered name. Pls don't delete. Let my disdain for this doofus stay posted.

Thanks

if there's one thing i respect in tagpro, it's people who are way too committed to their bits

Haha yes :)

Sometimes I like changing my name to Dangerfield and writing "no respect" whenever I get popped

lmao Gryts, my guy, this is TagPro in 2018. I don't want common sense to come anywhere near this. I want outlaw justice. THE PEOPLE want outlaw justice.

You... you want mods to ban people for things that AREN'T rule violations?

That will go over well in the community.

There's a lot of things you can do to ruin the game by staying within the rules, and some players discovered that.

Some mods allow those trolls just because they can't decide by thinking outside of the box. Trolls abuse that.

This happens on chord all the time with 1 specific player, everyone complains about this player.

Mods won't ban him because he's staying slightly within the rules, while still ruining the game for most of us.

Some chord mods have handled on it well, but then other mods come in and undo the bans because there was technically no rule that disallowed it.

Fix the damn rules, devs. Wait no, devs don't decide the rules.

What the hell is this game even

Don't necessarily agree with 'leaving team with 3v4' as a big problem of OP. But ye, what you said is 100% true. Especially on radius.

Right. In my eyes, it's basically worthy of being considered "afk too much" along with "working against own team" because he goes into the game with the intention of abandoning his/her team once popped and there's no telling how long it will take for a replacement to get spawned in.

If you gotta poop, take a call, your boss is walking by your desk, your child spilled apple juice on the floor or your house is getting broken into by armed robbers, yeah by all means leave your TagPro game. But if you are intent on leaving once something specific happens in-game and you go as far as advertising that particular scenario in your display name then that should be treated as being AFK or WAOT and 100% report-worthy.

If I was still a mod I would've banned the dude 100% because he ruined multiple games for both my team and opposing teams. Think it woulda been totally justified.

Ah, I see now. I thought it was basically just once and he'd be gone. I can see it as a problem if he keeps coming back in same game.

We need a neighborhood watch task force on this fella. Turtle on sight - no exceptions. Last seen rocking DOOT DOOT flair and being generally shit at the game.

Newsreel announcer: Young people from all over the globe are joining up to fight for the future of tagpro.

Some Ball 1: I'm doing my part.

Some Ball 2: I'm doing my part.

Some Ball 3: I'm doing my part.

First time player: I'm doing my part too. [other soldiers laugh]

Newsreel announcer: They're doing their part. Are you? Join the i pop i quit Neighborhood Watch and save the tagpro world. Service guarantees citizenship.

I was for a little while about 2-3 years ago. After life got a little busy for me personally and a lot of other things needed to take priority I became sort of a 'lazy TagPro mod' and never really got onto IRC enough and didn't meet my monthly moderator-actions quota (don't read that as "ban quota". Mods do a lot more than ban people so I'm not exactly trying to joke about that. But there was a level of participation that I didn't meet). Towards the end of my mod run I just warned folks that were out of line with my scary green mod chat and on rare occasion I would dish out a ban to someone.

I think I'd like u/LuckySpammer & company to be open to the idea of having a middle-ground between long time "trusted players" and full-on moderators. I still play TP a few hours a week and would like to help maintain the integrity of the game and community but I can't exactly commit to all the moderator responsibilities.

Still surprises me this isn't an option. Not many people can full time moderate, but I've been here since the beginning and want the best for tp. I used to mod and wasn't booted for abuse. Just not active enough.

No way.

Once you aren’t involved for some time there’s no telling what you would do with mod powers. Especially if you don’t play anymore and just come on to screw around for a bit and leave.

TagProNitroOPℕ ɪ ᴛ ᴙ o•

I'm not really proposing these "casual" moderators have all the same powers as the top level mods. And I think the only requirement for "trusted veteran mod" powers should be maybe 12+ hours played a month. That way you know they're actively playing and won't randomly go rogue and come back to abuse their powers. But it's not like anything they enforce couldn't be instantly reversed if they did anything out of line.

Also, maybe they don't have full on ban powers and other moderator privileges. Perhaps their report just counts as like five player reports or something and gets instantly pinged to the mods in IRC. And they have the ability to talk in mod chat. I think that'd be a nice middle ground. I rarely see a current mod in games nowadays but I see people who have been playing TagPro for damn near five years all the time and very very few of those people are shitheads.
