No, however I think there should be SOME community input into how players are punished etc.
Not on an individual basis for players, more of an overview of what punishments should be
acceptable and which shouldn't. What kind of punishment should be issued for a recurrence
of the offence?
However, for MODs I believe that as many people as possible should be involved in deciding
a reasonable punishment. For example, what happens if a MOD is privately punished for
something that would have a bearing on him dealing with a fleet? A MOD gets punished for
leaking information to Fleet A for example, I then submit a CS Ticket about someone in
Fleet A and the ticket gets dealt with by that MOD. Now, that seems a bit sticky to me,
and lets be honest, EVERY MOD has a fleet bias, so shouldn't the community be aware of
this MOD's prior activities so that IF the ticket is cut off by this individual, they can
complain about it not being handled properly?
A lot of people in this game don't understand the politics of TNF or fleet politics, so
when they see a MOD answer a question they have to assume he is going to handle it
correctly, that isn't the case some of the time.
I would love to live in a world where MODs are fair and we don't need stuff like this, but
do you remember when a MOD was caught admitting to the fact he deliberately manipulated it
so that his roomate was accepted as a Monitor? Now, tell me, is that the norm or is that
an isolated incident.
As someone who knows (a lot more than he should :)) about TNF, I can tell you it is
somewhere in between.
