Sorry everyone!

[A Zombie Riot]

I think what has happened today marks the fact that a new rule is going to be added.


No trolling - No provoking other members to respond inappropriately.


I'm surprised it wasn't added in earlier, and I feel it's something that's definitely needed as things can get a little hectic around here sometimes. And that needs to stop.

Zombie, please don't take this personally, because I think you are a great mod. It's very true that it does get hectic here at times. But, just try to be careful not to over-react. You seem to do that every now and then. If a mod goes overboard, everyone does.

BUT WE STILL LOVE YOU A ZOMBIE RIOT!!!

There's nothing with a little over-reaction and a little debate going on. With a couple of people today, it got pretty bad towards the end and they both said something that's considered trolling.

It kind of ties into rule #2, but it's not has clear as that.

Rule #2 is no aggressive attacks on other members.

Like, if I said you were stupid. That's an attack.


Trolling isn't necessarily attacking someone, it's just saying something to get them to respond inappropriately. If you saw in both threads what happened, there was 2 trolling attempts. I replied to one of them, but ignored another.

It's more directed at someone.

Trolling is posting something just to get someone riled up.

Remember what you posted earlier this week? Yeah, that would be considered trolling.

What? Responding to a threat of BEING BANNED? I'm autistic damn it! There isn't verbage in text. Any miscommunication could royally screw someone.

And you know that was a joke, since everything before that was a joke. We were having fun, goofing off. I wasn't being serious, and you know that. It's how you responded to the joke that took it too far.

Just from now on, pay attention to what you're saying.

Looks like CosmykTheDolphin needs to change his signature...

That's not really trolling though. I'm being very clear here on what this trolling is.

Maybe I should reword it as no provoking. Instead of trolling.

Yeah... I think that's better.
