Never go full Talore

hey instead of conflagrating a situation that is literally a mole hill, you could talk to people. I know this is difficult for you because your forte has always been a more passive aggression, but considering your job on the internet is interacting with people about interacting with people on a forum i would assume the skills would develop at some point.

but I mean you can also take this opportunity to talk about something to just copy and paste it into another mod lounge thread while remaining passive aggressively involved, that's also an entirely reasonable response to the situation.

You're not my problem, take it up with the admins
I mean you want me
re-banned, so apparently I'm a huge problem.

I'm being up front with you but you can't do the same to me. And that's fine I guess, I just wanted to talk to you since apparently two separate jokes turned into a Defcon Alert at MTGS and trying to be a unique person too made me the new target of a lynch mob

it's weird because i've talked to galspanic about myriad problems on both ends over time and even if we disagree it's seriously not a big deal because we're adults, but you're station is fucking meaningless on MTGS and you can't even carry on a fucking conversation because you have to titter with your girlfriend behind closed doors because god forbid someone resolves something through dialog and mutual understanding than through groupthink and unilateralism.
but like I said, your station is meaningless and galspanic is where he is because I guess he's adult enough to have those conversations.
if you have a problem, talk to the admins

Hey guys,
I'm contacting you because I'm seeing a huge problem with your clan. In the last few days you've been dogpiling on a user, now you're posting negatively and going after mods. This has to stop. Clans is a relaxed place and we don't want battles in there (especially external battles). Right now, we are considering closing the clan down for a while(kind of like a clan Suspension), but I decided it was best to talk to you before acting.
We never closed down a clan in this way, but we're willing to do it if your attitude doesn't change. What happens in other parts of the site is a seperate matter that I'm not here do discuss right now, but bringing anything like that into clans is not tolerated and I
want to be sure that everyone undestands that.
What are you actually trying to accomplish & want to be able to do with your clan?
Do you see yourselves being able to conform with the clan rules? - Voltan

Voltan's ascension
Looking at Voltans post history out of curiosity, he went like 3 years without hardly posting then came back and was admin in like 6 months.
How does that work.
With the right friends everything is possible!
The wildest dreams can come true!
See Xenphire
I guess that makes you guys the wrong friends?
What am I doing with my life?
Posting here really does make those people over there hate you, for no reason.
That's what I'm here for. I report back if any new posters show up so they can start infracting them back on Sally. So far it's worked out pretty good. lapdog even said I might get to be a mod again soon! Just a few more reports, he said. Yep.

Xenphire ascension
remember how many times xenphire got banned for trolling users and showing no signs of getting better?
now he's a mod!
No, no, no. The trick is to successfully gimmick up long enough that you can prove you're a changed person! Get caught early and you make your case worse, though, so...

Don't take the troll bait.
Recently we've had a situation develop in CI because people bit on trollbait. First a local and then an admin. This is not something that happens just to the inexperienced, this happens to all of us eventually. That being said, it's also something that inevitably creates CI drama.
Don't take the troll bait.
People will try to exploit your good nature by making a blatantly wrong post for you to correct. Often it will be something with a false assumed premise or fallacious logic. The purpose of the post is to get a response from you that they can then springboard off of.
Don't take the troll bait.
If you see an low post count account
suggesting the GRRRRRRRRR should be publicly archived with the gutter, it's a troll account.
Don't take the troll bait.
If you see a post addressing you that is ignoring a mod request, it's troll bait. The entire point is to make it so that you feel compelled to respond.
Don't take the troll bait.
I've made the mistake more times than I can count, and I'm sure everyone else has as well, but we need to be much more careful about this. It's important to realize that you as a staff member have a larger target on your head than most, and that a troll can generate a much larger stir if they can get you to bite.
Don't take the troll bait.
Look at the post you're replying to. If it's made by a low post user or a known troll, don't touch it. Maybe card it, maybe report it, but to blindly approach with benign innocence will result in more work and drama for you and everyone else. Look for the clear
memes used in the past when targeting the staff.
Don't take the troll bait.
I get that this got pretty pedantic, but I'm tired of dealing with drama because a troll succeeded in exploiting someone's good nature. It's not a big deal for it to happen now and then, but this is turning into a major hassle that I'd rather not see repeated frequently.
Anyway, that's about it. Any questions, frustrations, or musings are welcome below.
