MOD’s shall retain the right to ‘ban’ or ‘revoke’ the privileges of players that break the rules of KDICE. Not only will the username(s) of the guilty be blocked, but the Public IP address(s) of the user will be blocked as well. Banning durations will no longer be arbitrarily assigned.

You should send this to Ryan because he is the only person that can implement something like this. FYI; I seriously doubt that Ryan would allow the moderators to be determined by the community. Anyway; gl; but there is no one that reads the forum that has the power to implement something like this. |

at 3:39 AM, Wednesday September 14, 2011 EDT Though I think DC was right that this is not worth a comment, I'll drop a couple of lines just to point out the utter stupidity of this.
As there is absolutely no means of realising a one person one vote scheme on this, a single frequent players withouth a life would be able to impersonate all mods and live out his grudges. This scheme is total bullshit. And there is persons with several accounts in top 100 every month. Banning IPs is so braindead with dial in and changing IPs with every new dialing. I'll dial some dumbshit's IP next time and am banned for unknown reasons and can hardly do something about it. Interesting that porn images deserve less punishment than harrassment or sexist comments (and we can discuss endlessly where porn starts and harrassment ends, as we all know), while the only case of hard cheating and breaking the rules and ruining the game (PGA) requires an endless procedure to ban the cheater for a comparibly short period of tim. Can I detect a bias of the original poster here? |
