Title: Reporting regulars for retarded-ass votes
Post by: ursus on August 23, 2012, 10:20:06 AM
Title more or less says it all. If a regular deliberately votes no on a vote that's clearly justified with no room for debate, what's the point at which it's considered grounds for demotion?

I personally don't think there should be any tolerance for it. It makes my day that much worse.

Not sure what the others think, but I've always considered that grounds for demotion. People just need to make more threads/reports about regulars doing this.

I also treat it the same. I don't like uncooperative Regs, I understand how difficult it makes it for VIPs.

Well yeah. I mean, its the only thing a reg CAN do wrong. If they can't press the right button, they shouldn't have regular.

Keep in mind though it is up to their judgement too. If they were to just vote yes on the vote every time there would be no point in regulars. So it's up to their judgement but they will be easily demoted if they make poor judgements and make the situation harder to deal with. But if the vote is based on something that they don't agree with for good reason then they most likely won't be demoted.

I remember a ton of people (including regs) complaining about these rdmers in TTT once, and when I came in and made a vote, none of the regulars voted on it. It really ticked me off, and I let them know that, because obviously getting those guys kicked didn't mean half as much as just complaining endlessly about it. Same goes for just deliberately voting no, when the situation proves otherwise. Really shows a lack of duty toward the rank they were given.

I think you called me in once to help you.... But this has happened to me too.

Probably, because they weren't helping at all.

Yea, if there is proof they are uncooperative and the vote is valid etc, then it makes sense to demote them... unless maybe they would defend their vote with some justifiable reasoning. Then maybe give them another chance.

So, is it completely acceptable to report them on the first time if they're just being a contrarian?

Tbh I would. I usually demote on the first time if it's simply unjustifiable entirely. So you would need to get good proof/have a good explanation really. Like showing them voting no and their response and such.

In the past when I had that problem, I usually PMed them over steam and asked for an explanation, then took a screenshot if it was a terrible explanation/they were an asshole.

That should work.
