Yes, there is.

But this topic is secret.

Only a conscious player will find it.

Listen,

You're in-game and someone mentally abuse with you, you must now find this topic.

There's a secret command.

/report [username] [reason]

It will secretly make a topic for the moderators.

They will listen to you and will help you.

You don't need to post here.

EDIT: If it's a troll, then ignore what I said and go...do something else.

Well, reporting people in public is frowned upon. One reason is it can cause angry mobs to shame accused players. So there aren't any topics around or ones that should be made, unless you want an angry mob of forumers to shame you.

Hope this helped.

He mentioned trolls in his first post. You shouldn't use this to report trolls, keyspammers, or anything non chat related. So he may need to post stuff here... the non chat related stuff.

Pretty sure you can't report people for trolling.

As has been said, do not report people on the forums. Don't report trolls at all, since its not against EE rules. If you must report someone on EE for an actual rule broken, use the /report chat command in the game itself and it'll be taken care of.

Ofc it's more about trolls, but I don't want them to be banned. I was thinking about creating a topic with "persons you shouldn't give edit" in case of Boss To Edit. So in this topic, I put my banlist and sometimes I add screenshots (if it's possible) that prove they are not trusted.
So to be sure, am I able to do this sort of topic ? If yes, in whiche section can I put this topic ?

Thanks

This is just a way to defame someone. If you're giving edit, you're agreeing this person might troll and it will be your fault because you gave edit, anyone can troll.

(I didn't find how to do "creature wrote : ...)

Creature, it's also to prevent others owners who may give edit on boss or minis, that these persons already trolled somewhere. Then, they can ban them if they trust me, or just keep an eye

To do the "creature wrote" thing, on the bottom right of their post, click the "Quick Quote" button. It will do it for you.

And this still brings us back to what he said. If someone is on the list, rightfully or wrongfully, it just defames them. We don't want to start witch hunts here.

skullz17 · 2015-09-20 22:19:29

Well there's no point in that list because there will always be people who will troll.

mrjawapa · 2015-09-20 23:31:29

Seems like a good place for this...

Here are a few things for you guys to remember:

- You can get banned for frivolous or rule-breaking abuse reports. So don't send them.
- Do not use the report tool against trolling. Trolling is not against the rules and your report will be considered spam.
- Hacking shouldn't be reported with the report function, as it cannot collect sufficient evidence against "hackers."
- Just because the report tool cannot spy on hackers, does not mean they are not banned regularly. Seriously, just play the game as is.
- Reports on people for not giving you edit will be marked as spam.
- The report command is not a way to PM people. We have a /PM command for that.
(Credit: Toop)

Over the past month, the number of spam reports have gone up drastically. It gets in the way of all of the legit reports, and makes our job harder. Therefore, anyone that sends in a fake/spam report, will receive a ban. There will be no debate on the matter, and no hesitation. With that said, anyone that send in reports trying to be "funny," will have their account indefinitely suspended.

I'd like to know this; If someone breaks a rule, but does NOT get reported by a single person, is the one who broke the rule going to be banned?
And also, how far back do your reports go? As in, what year?

How are they supposed to be banned for something that we are unaware of? And I suppose all the way back to when they were first released.

Hexagon · 2015-09-20 23:46:45

If I report a user for,
- unintentionally evading the censor
- evokes an emotionally harming memory
- stalking users (e.g following them but not speaking to them)
- advertising an ee related website (e.g forums.everybodyedits.com, everybodyedits.com)
- sharing email addresses secretly (e.g using (at) instead of @)
- asking a user for an alternative form of communication outside of everybodyedits.com
- asking a user for their ee forums account name
- speaking to another user using non-explicit language after the user has told them to stop
- using a slur or reference that is not about tabaco, drugs, or alcohol (e.g racism, culture, gender)
- posting a link which at the time of publication did not violate the rules but the content on the website was modified such that it is now against the rules
- sharing a profile picture of a user's facebook account (via their fb user id token)
- connecting an auto-art bot client that impedes on user's game play because the title of the world is "No auto art bots allowed"
- connecting with another alias after I have been kicked from a world
- sharing a 10 digit code that could be mistaken for a phone number (e.g 12588843382)
- or, drawing an image with a bot which is initially offensive until the rest of the image is drawn

Will I get a warning/ban?

Fair enough. Thanks for answering.

Context would help here. I've never seen that happen.

Not against the rules... you might be informed of it. If you kept sending in the report you would be.

Hexagon wrote:

Advertising, no. Spamming links to try and get attention, yes.

Hexagon wrote:

That doesn't make sense.

Hexagon wrote:

This also doesn't make any sense?

Hexagon wrote:

If you are being a nuisance, and causing problems, and or harassing, then yes.

Hexagon wrote:

Context is important.

Hexagon wrote:

Why are you reporting them for a link that wasn't bad?

Hexagon wrote:

Yes.

Hexagon wrote:

Ehhh, probably not. Gray area. The world owner could easily kick you, or remove your edit.

Context, example?

Schlog · 2015-09-21 00:40:01

On that note, we should create a topic on how to properly use the /report command.

Saying "He tried to.assemble that" but put a space between "s" and "e".

Sharing an email address and evading the censor at the same time; not sure how to report that.

Since sharing "[...]any other personal information of other people" is a reason for a ban; not sure if eeforums username is personal or not.

Well, it wasn't bad when they posted it but now it is, and there's no way to prove that it was not bad to begin with.

For example, drawing an explicit image and then turning a portion of that image into a dress. I might have to PM you for more info.

Thank you for your responses so far though, I appreciate it as it clarifies a few things.

Probably not. Like I said, most people have the common sense to realize who is trying to evade censors, and who isn't. I've never seen a report like this.

Emails aren't censored? What?

Ehh, that's a gray area.

Why was it reported to begin with? And why would you be banned for someone else sharing a ban link?

Yeah, you're probably going to be banned.

Instead of
[email protected]

it would be:

exampletATexample.com
As according to his first post.

mrjawapa · 2015-09-21 03:22:37

I don't understand why that's an issue? And why would he be banned for it?

What?

Xfrogman43 · 2015-09-21 04:28:53

Maybe he wants to know if you'd be banned for asking for an email:

rules wrote:

Never share email addresses, phone numbers, addresses, or any other personal information of other people. This will result in a ban.

So if you SHARE an email you get banned, but not for asking one...? Why

If you say:
"[email protected]" = ban
would
"jawapaATexample.com" = ban?

I think that's what he's asking.

Hexagon

mrjawapa · 2015-09-21 04:31:09

gray area.

Hexagon · 2015-09-21 12:27:54

What if I share your (JaWapa's) email address (which is personal information from another person) but it is also public information (i.e on the ee website?)

Master1 · 2015-09-21 13:16:48

I think it's safe to say that if you at least make an attempt at using the report tool correctly, you won't get banned. We don't try to ensure that someone gets banned with every report.

Also - If you think there's a chance that you could get banned for whatever you're about to report, it's probably wise to not do it.
-
Maybe we need a list of things you should report, to go with the list of things you shouldn't report.
