*Per Skdhjf. Users need to take their punishment for misbehaving in chat. They need to stop whining because it is very annoying and there has been cases recently that a chatmod's buddy got banned so they immediatly get unbanned even though they need to be banned. So basically the chatmod thinks that they need to unban their buddy even though they need to be banned. {{User:Mr. Minifigure/sig}} 21:08, January 22, 2012 (UTC) |

*'''Remove''' the chat indefinitely. It's the only way to solve these reiterating issues. Seriously, this extension has been causing way too many problems for this wiki, and is discouraging mainspace editing on this wiki. Also, if people want to chat, there's an [[BP:IRC|IRC]] that's collecting dust. {{User:Skdhjf/SigT}} 01:41, January 23, 2012 (UTC) |

+ | * I think chat could be excellent if two things happened. 1 - you take away ChatMod from users who misuse it 3 or more times. I don't necessarily think it's bad for users to leave a message on an admins talk page if someone really is abusing their powers. The admins are the ones who really should be responsible and not complain about it (BTW, I don't think this forum is complaining :P). The second thing is, you guys are not near strict enough. You can't be because your policy isn't, but even for things in your policy you're not. You can say that admins only carry out what the community votes, but blocking and banning is something that the community should have nothing to do with that the admins do regularly, even if it's to good users with lots of edits. It seems like you hesitate on that a little because you're used to the community being involved. I think Trolling like that should only get 3 warnings, and from what I've seen it gets nearly 100s. But that's just what I think will make it work (and I do speak from some experience. SOME :P). [[User:Drew1200|Drewlzoo]]<sup>([[User talk:Drew1200|talk]]) ([[User blog:Drew1200|blogs]])</sup> |

+ | ** Well, seeing evidence of ChatMod being abused depends on a chatlogger (which was the whole reason why this was made :D). You can't just assume that if someone complains about another user that they're right and the person being complained about is wrong. If we had evidence of abuse, one case would be enough for me to want to remove the chatmod rights. {{User:Nighthawk leader/sig}} 22:06, January 23, 2012 (UTC) |

+ | ** "You can say that admins only carry out what the community votes, but blocking and banning is something that the community should have nothing to do with that the admins do regularly, even if it's to good users with lots of edits." Admins only carry out what the community says?! Admins can block, protect pages, edit the site interface, etc. without any discussion, as long as what they're doing isn't controversial. Nobody ever set up a forum to block a minor vandal for 24 hours, or to fix a problem in [[MediaWiki:Common.js]]. And yes, we do consult the community when we have good users with lots of edits, and there's nothing wrong with that. Blocking good users is controversial. Admins are not left to resolve controversial issues single-handedly. [[Special:Contributions/75.0.177.16|75.0.177.16]] 00:00, January 25, 2012 (UTC) |

+ | ***That's not what I meant at all. What I was saying was that the admins can talk about it, and do certain things without the help of the community. I worded it very badly, I'm really sorry. It's not wrong at all to do what you are doing. All's I meant is that it's not wrong for admins to talk to each other, and decide without the community. I was suggesting it, because I think it works better sometimes. I am really sorry for how I wondered it. BTW, you might want to log in, you've made a couple posts under your IP :P [[User:Drew1200|Drewlzoo]]<sup>([[User talk:Drew1200|talk]]) ([[User blog:Drew1200|blogs]])</sup> |
||
+ | ****You probably already know this, but when admins make decisions without advice from the community, it's usually because information is not allowed to be revealed for privacy reasons. This happens in checkuser situations where you don't want to throw around IP addresses in public. Out of curiosity, in what other cases would it be appropriate for admins to keep their discussion private? Admins are not supposed to be some super-special cabal group that makes all the decisions for us, whether we like it or not.

Nobody is forcing anyone to go on chat, and the situation really isn't that bad... every appears to be freaking out over one or two people complaining about perfectly justified bans.
