No action is needed in the Gumball sitch. Just like, knock it off.
I think this is a good approach. All offenders seem to have good intent and I don't think this is a situation that'll come up again.

If this is how we are doing things here I see no place for myself on this wiki.
 
Has anybody given a warning to Zephyros?
 
@Goji

It isn't how we are doing things here.
 
No problem.
 
TGOP has a history of flippant light trolling. I have told him to stop in the past.
 
A strict warning seems more appropriate.
 
Making recurrent mocking comments or similar. It depends from case to case.
 
Anyway, he uploaded an image of a manga girl with ***** in her face, drawn in a non-serious manner, but nevertheless. He definitely needs to shape up his behaviour.
 
So while we're on the topic of inappropriate pictures, what's with AKM sama's secret cheesecake stash?

Predicting that people are going to ask how I found this like last time, so: I found this months ago while trying to upload an image. Just remembered it existed. Just found out that some of it's probably haram.
 
It seems harmless to me.

None of that seems "haram" enough to be removed, in my opinion.

We used to have threads dedicated to pictures like that, they were told to stop but only because some people kept going overboard. I don't think we'd have an issue like that with a staff member's own locked page.
 
Even if it's harmless, I just don't see the point of hosting borderline pornographic images on the wiki instead of just, I don't know, saving them on a hard drive or a folder somewhere.
 
Because people can do what they want on their user pages as long as it doesn't harm others.

I have some shitposts/format tests, meme pages, and pages that don't fit on the wiki on my profile. I could just keep them on my computer but I'd rather have them here.

Maybe AKM wants to share those pictures with other people on-site? But even if it's not for that or for some other reason, I don't think we need to demand a reason for people doing something that doesn't interfere with others or break rules.
 
They are not borderline pornographic. At most they show drawings of women in bikini. That is perfectly harmless.
 
Returning to TGOP, is somebody willing to give him an official warning?

I beg to differ. We've set precedent on this just last thread.

Were the "Outlier Manipulation" and "Social Justice Warrior Physiology" joke blogs not a deciding factor in Gewsbumpz's ban?

Nothing in either of those blogs were harmful, beyond his little jab at GreenCyan. He didn't even name Antvasima by name. Hell, he even made a joke blog about me for the NERF gun stint (it was kind of funny, to be honest). Were his joke blogs not presented as evidence for reasons why he should be banned?
 
They were a factor, and they were considered harmful. But there was a lot more to it than just those blogs.

  • The first blog was barely a factor, and was only brought up by Ant as an example of a personal attack on him, but was largely not important to the ban.
  • The second blog was a moderately larger factor, because he admitted it was made to provoke certain people, and he clarified that while simultaneously insulting other members.
  • A large part of the ban was his repeated creation of bad profiles left for other members to clean up, and repeated disrespectful behaviour. If content on userspace contributes to this, of course it would be reason for a ban.
And just because you're okay with a friend joking about you, doesn't mean that everyone is okay with being joked about that way. Hykuu says some pretty awful things to me, but that's part of our friendship dynamic, as soon as he started saying that to other people he got a tempban and shaped up his behaviour.

That page AKM has could only maybe become relevant if we were considering banning AKM for ignoring warnings about posting ****? But that's a very niche situation on its own and is nothing close to the actual situation we have now.

@Ant I'd like to help but I'm not sure what sort of things the warning should include, sorry.
 
Just a mention to tone down the disrespectful light trolling and not upload any more lewd images.
 
I don't think so. Somebody in the staff should probably give him a warning.
 
Okay. Feel free to do so.
 
Earthyboy is asking me if it's okay for him to come back. I said I was neutral as he does appear to have shaped up and apologized for his actions, and I know ZaStando and Imagine don't appear to be coming back anytime soon, but what about EarthyBoy? Just like to hear thoughts from others before I have my say.

I've been strongly against him coming back in the past, but I wanted to ask anyway.
