Chat Suspension: 1 week is too long
« on: August 24, 2011, 11:48:41 AM »
I think that's a bit much, especially for the first time. For someone that spends a few hours each day playing, that's a long time.

Ok. I was being a dick, but it was to another dick. I'm usually the Lord Of Niceness And Fairness in Midwar.

After a day or so the point's been made. No reason for a whole week unless it's repeat behavior.

Seems to me you still had control over what you typed into the chat buffer, just cause someone else is behaving badly doesn't excuse more bad behavior.

Take it as a lesson learned, or if you want to discuss it call HTC directly.

If you think you were unfairly muted (being a dick to a dick doesn't factor into it), take it up with HTC so they can check the logs.  Otherwise, relax and reflect for the week.

It shouldn't take a week to make a point.

a week is long enough to bug you so much that you posted on the forum about it.

as a punishment/deterrent I'd say ... job done :aok

Again: My point is more the length of the suspension. The muting was fair enough. It was a stupid and unnecessary comment and it was foolish for me to make, although the guy did deserve it. :lol

Many years ago, just after I first started playing, I got muted for 10 minutes for texting the bs word. Fair enough and point made. They didn't hit me for a week. I'm not suggesting they go back to 10 minutes but I would think a day should suffice.
