Now before you vote take in account this past couple weeks with spammers as well . . In which The monitors went above and beyond to ban accounts from waypoint / lock down accounts from posting anything to waypoint till 12-29-2552.
That and view all of this based on any nature or situation a monitor has to face / deal with.
Now thats good that there doing that, It secures Waypoint from any threats, Big or Small, Im for that. . . What I am not for is when they Ban or lock down your account for no reason given, let alone no warning given. You can’t tell me or anyone that its the system that does it, When there is no real system that that track, Identify or Flag a User on its own.
As a monitore, I believe ( Theory in Progress ) That they Flag someone and one there screen, if that person post or what not, They would have a tag next to there name. " A label " To help them point out that type of user from another to even really " Puppy Guarding " that user, By following them around and just monitoring there posts. Now that last part is really what they do, But to everyone, Right?
…
Two friends of mine were just banned this past week from posting anything to Waypoint for life, Some will say good others will say why? if so they must of violated the rules of some sort. . . Well they didn’t, They weren’t even given a warning on what they did wrong.
Now when you get flagged or warned by a monitor, Whatever monitor did it, WILL DIRECT MESSAGE YOU on what you did, Along with a link to whatever thread you posted.
In this case, They never got one. Just a ban / Lock on there account. They can still use waypoint, But can’t post a thread / opinion. The only way they can is by doing so in a company that they are in. Now these guys are Die hard Halo fans & well USED to be active on a daily basis on the forums.
This past week they were hit by a monitor or monitors, Around this period, There was a Spam of some sort going through Waypoint, in which the monitors can limit how long it takes to post a thread / post, before it was 30 secs to a minute to now up to 2 hrs, Reason is to limit a spammer or monitor who is a spammer or something like that. This is good, like i said before, but in this case they could go over & abuse there power by removing / Banning / Locking out members from the HaloWaypoint site.
Now Im not against them, Im just going to say, They have made Waypoint way to strict than what it use to be.
. . .
What are your thoughts on this, And If your a monitor let me know what you think as well.
