Deleted...

20-11-2003, 20:12
The Rogue Nation of Low Tide was deleted yesterday... And I don't know why! I don't think I did anything wrong, and I liked my nation, so if anyone could please get it back for me, I would appreciate it... What I would like most, though, is an explanation of why I was deleted. I don't think I did anything to warrant such action.

If you're sure it wasn't inactivity, then think of something you did that might have been flaming, greifing, or spam and that was probably it.

Wouldn't the mods usually email you why you were deleted though if you did something wrong? Or warn you?

I was making fun of a troll, but that was it... The damn troll didn't even get deleted!!!

Is that a roundabout way of saying that you were flaming? Responding by flaming at length to flame-bait is also grounds for a penalty.

Does arguing with someone, and defending the people of the game really warrant a deletion? -.- The guy, Poiop, who was the troll that was flaming everyone didn't even get deleted! I think I just got the shaft for no apparent reason!

Link to topic in question?

Also, flaming is not allowed. This includes flaming in response to flaming or trolling.

Do not feed the trolls.

I -can't- link to topic in question... It was deleted last night before I was. -.- It was started by a guy named Idickedyourmom, but he got deleted pretty quick... Anyway, he came back as Idickedyourmomagain, then started flaming everyone again. I have a few words, so did a hell of alot of other people, then came Poiop. Poiop started flaming the hell out of everyone, just for playing the game. So I had a few words with him, too. That's it, I don't think I did anything wrong. And Poiop is still around after calling everyone in NS nerds that need girlfriends and have no lives. -.- How the hell is that not flaming? If I were to be deleted, shouldn't he too?

Well, mod actions can seem strange sometimes, since they are only human. Your best bet, as Cogitation said, would be to link to the original thread.

So whenever someone insults alot of people in NS? He's putting everyone else up for deletion? I still don't under stand why the mods didn't tell Low Tides why he was deleted, or even warn him.

Look--> if you flame you might get deleted.

I am sorry that the person who flamed you did not recieve a punishment that would satisfy you. But that has nothing to do with Low Tides beign deleted. Flaming back is still flaming. If you flamed, you should be deleted.

Next time report to the mods instead of flaming back.

I really hope you have better luck in the fame.

-When in doubt, just remember that you need to folow the rules regardless what anyone else does.

Most of that is understandable. But wouldn't most nations recieve warning or an email as of why they were deleted?

Flaming and an inappropriate motto. As you will note, Low Tide has been resurrected with its motto deleted. Please learn from this incident.

I think you're right.

The resurrection of Low Tide was probably because the original deletion of Low Tide was overkill for one incident of flaming and a bad motto. The deletion of Marathon, on the other hand, was for more serious/extensive offenses and was not overkill.

However, that is only my guess; I am not Scolo, I can't read his mind, and I haven't discussed this with him, yet.

Now, I would normally keep this topic open, but I don't want the GM's flooded with requests from God-and-[violet]-Only-Know how many n00bs asking "Can I have my nation back?"
