Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

Voting Discussion: We're Screwing In Light Bulbs AIFG!  

We open it up, we talks the talk, we votes, we shuts it down. This thread is to free up Bureaucracy for daily details as we hammer out the Big Issues towards a vote. Open only when a proposal has been made and seconded according to Buffista policy (Which we voted on!). If this thread is closed, hie thee to Bureaucracy instead!

Thrive to spite them

There should be NO complaints in Bureau if teh poster makes nice nice in the thread. The process is in-thread attempt first - then complain in Bureau. You don't try in-thread first, I smack you.

Absolutly!

The work I have to do! Ack! You think these pink ponies are easy to come by?

Proposal sounds good to me so far.

I gotta say, I shoulda stepped up sooner. Who knew there was positive attention? After this though, I step back into the shadows.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

There wouldn't, I believe it is supposed, be 10 complaints if the offender makes nice nice. Or, some of the complaints will likely be withdrawn if the offender waits to make nice until after it goes to bureacracy. Still, making nice would probably make it go away, until the next time, if there is a next time.

Still not clear to me. Let's say that A complains about B. B happens to be at work at the time. Now while B is at work, all 10 seconds needed chime in. B hasn't responded yet, because B has no idea that there is ANYTHING to respond to. As soon as B discovers she/he is the subject of heated discussion, she/he comes in, explains his/her side of things, promises behavior modification, etc. But meanwhile, 10 complaints were logged. Is the warning automatic? Has debate officially ended when 10 complaints are reached?

Burrell - step one is that A complains in the thread where the offensive post occurs.

For example: A says, "Hey B, that offends me. Please watch your tone and/or hateful language."

B can either 1) Doblerize and then all is well, OR B can 2) continue to antagonize.

If 2, then it is A's resposibility to say in that same thread, "B, I am taking my complaint to Bureau and asking that you be given a warning."

Is that clear? I don't think it would be possible for B to get to the "up for a warning" place without knowing it. If B was away when A posted the in-thread complaint, there would be no reason for A to move to Bureau. Lack of response without additional offensive behaviour I don't think would warrant it.
