Re: Mod plan: Revising the armour of dom3
 

Is Sombre banned or why is it showing banned below his name ? I wanted to PM him.

Re: Mod plan: Revising the armour of dom3
 

He's been permanently banned. He was given an infraction for being flaming and abusive in another thread and he made it clear in no uncertain terms to two different moderators that he could not care less and that he essentially had no intention of either heeding warnings or refrain from behavior that violates the board terms of service unless he feels like it.

Given his contributions to the board and the community in the past, he was not banned outright but the issue was forwarded to the administrators. The decision to permanently ban him came from them.

We aren't pleased that things turned out this way, but it did, to everyone's loss.

Well that is really a loss. According to my general impression he didnt seem outright friendly, but it didnt appear to be all hostile as well. thanks for answering.

I will continue this mod, but:
Continue= i will work on it, do not expect this to be finished soon, it will be very similar to the excel sheet sombre released, i will not touch rcost unless someone point it out
Of course, i will give up if someone else want to work on it.

That's the worst news since I joined the fora. Sombre is clearly one of the top 5 contributors to Dom3.

Sure he's got a bit of a mouth sometimes, but on the other hand he's always helpful and answers a lot of questions. It's not like he's really been mean to anyone, just a bit impolite.

Permanent ban seems extremely harsh, why not just mute him for a month or so. Or a 3 month ban or something.

I mean, shrapnel is even indirectly making money on his mod nations. They're so good they could just as well be an official expansion pack.

I'm really really disappointed, bad bad moderators.:mad:

Good effing job Shrapnel.

good to know that the moderators are looking out for us and banning the jerks who make this forum worse and add nothing to the community. mod nations, who needs em? helpful, if mouthy, members? screw them. we really only need moderators. then they can ban each other.

To hopefully allow this thread to get back on track, here's two divergent threads... one for reinstating Sombre:

and my own to get ideas about how people feel about the "realism" of armor in Dom3, since Sombre requested that we not discuss that here:

Moving along...
