Player behavior subsection for ban discussions

This Is Your Dad·Jul 23, 2017·1 votes·296 views

I don't really know if it's even necessary, but after scanning the player behavior section I thought it'd be nice to sort it into ban discussion and player behavior system discussion. For instance, asking whether a particular behavior is reportable, discussing community behavior as a whole, or discussing possible solutions or systems to promote positive behavior could be separate from a ban discussion where a punishment was already issued. In that sub-board you could put a sticky stating that supplying unedited chat logs could help people talk about your ban so that those discussing the ban can get feedback on their behavior in a more structured environment so as to avoid the time it takes to ask them for logs and then shame them into oblivion.

I don't think they can be separated very well, as it is punishments that lead to discussions about the behavior systems. Sure you can have one without the other, but most ban posts will be unproductive otherwise.

I think mostly it would just lead to me and the other Arbiters having to lock or remove lots of posts that belong on the other board, and agonizing over where a post actually belongs because it fits in both.

I suppose it would be work. If people posted properly more frequently it might work. I just have to weed through ban appeals versus actual behavior discussion and sometimes titles are misleading.
