Extent of admin complaints forum
Right now, the admin complaints forum is limited to in game conduct, and does not handle things from outside of that.
However, in modern tg, admins have a far greater range of responsibilities, from forum moderation, to discord moderation.
In light of that, I believe it would be a good, transparent move to make admin complaints extended to allow complaints about forum and discord moderation.
Note: I am not suggesting that complaints be allowed about admin posts/comments in these places, just if they use moderation powers to kick/delete/ban people, those be complainable about.
Why: It's important to ensure our use of administrative powers is transparent, and subjected to oversight. Part of that is resolving complaints in a semi-public fashion (semi public as not everyone can post about it).
This is a good way for people to see that the admins do indeed police what is acceptable and not acceptable when using forum and discord.
FNR admin complaints is a pre-existing forum, setup to allow proper moderation and with a good set of rules/guidelines and to me, seems a perfect fit.

This should only apply to powers though, I don't want people making complaints because they are offended because I posted a meme on discord.

If you post racist memes, you deserve the complaint as admins are representatives of the community.Dax Dupont wrote:This should only apply to powers though, I don't want people making complaints because they are offended because I posted a meme on discord.

Re: Extent of admin complaints forum
I makes sense to have a place to lodge a complaint if some admin is kicking people they shouldn't. Presumably it would mirror the way players can appeal discord bans in the appeal forum.

yeah this is pretty ironic considering headadmins have taken into account what people have said on discord.Ayy Lemoh wrote:too bad, those are actionable.Dax Dupont wrote:I posted a meme on discord.

Re: Extent of admin complaints forum
I honestly thought I changed this during my term.
It should be changed to include things other than just in game. We are admins of a community not just a game. L

Re: Extent of admin complaints forum
I've always wanted this. If an admin has powers somewhere, it should be an area under the jurisdiction of admin complaints, if only for the purposes of transparency. I was never a fan of seeing a possibly legit complaint flooded with "THIS BOARD IS FOR SPECIFIC INCIDENCES OF IN-GAME ADMIN ABUSE." instead of saying why it was or wasn't abuse.

that but unironically, really good ideaLazengann wrote:make it a subforum for good recordkeeping
I'd argue to include forum mods who aren't server admins and maintainer complaints in case of power abuse but i guess separation memes
I'd only really oppose this if it included non-moderation powers (e.g. admin called me a dumbass in the general chat for complaining about dying)

Re: Extent of admin complaints forum
Yeah make a subforum called “OOC Activity Complaints” or something so that people who feel wronged on discord or the forums can say their piece officially

There is a lot of very bizarre nonsense being talked on this forum. I shall now remain silent and logoff until my points are vindicated.

There is one great outcome from this: I rised up the blood pressure of some of you shitheads and lowered your lifespan. I'm honestly tempted to do this more often just to see you screech and writhe more, but that wouldn't be cool of me. So come on haters, show me some more of your high blood pressure please.

Nothing is going to happen until after the elections. I hope the new headmin team take this idea seriously and make it one of their first considerations.

Re: Extent of admin complaints forum
We discussed this pre-election and more or less came to a conclusion, but the overriding feeling at the moment is that it'd be improper rule on something, that changes a fundamental aspect of the administration team, during the election period.
We'll be discussing this with the incoming headmins, whomsoever they might be, and will most likely give a definitive answer before handover.

Re: Extent of admin complaints forum
The admin complaints forum has now been expanded to accommodate a wider range of abuse. To that end I am resolving this thread. For more information please see https://tgstation13.org/phpBB/viewtopic ... 41&t=22277
