Unexplained Changes

In the last couple days New Arkham was upgraded to Dangerous by SearchDerelict who gave seemingly suitable evidence for the change. Less than 24 hours later it was changed by Zarak Goldleaf to Safe, and then shortly thereafter by the same to Moderate, both without an explanation. Currently operating in this area myself, I know that zombie activity has been picking up, and many of the resource buildings are in zed hands. Whether it should be Dangerous or Moderate, I can't really say definitively right now, but precisely because it is at a tipping point, I feel it is crucial to give a summary reason for a change in danger status. --Boneshred The Hungry 22:25, 26 March 2013 (UTC)

Looking over the history further it seems that Zarak Goldleaf has been reverting all of Bob Moncrief's military report updates, never giving a reason for doing so. I will keep an eye on it, but if this continues, I will likely request the page be locked pending sysop investigation --Boneshred The Hungry 22:32, 26 March 2013 (UTC)

Just this page, not the military updates page though. --Rosslessness 23:06, 26 March 2013 (UTC)

Sorry if my wording was confusing, the military reports themselves were not altered, but rather the danger level updates made subsequent to new Military report data. --Boneshred The Hungry 23:37, 26 March 2013 (UTC)

It seems like Zarak has been trying to keep the report continuously at Moderately. Should I ask on Zarak's talk page why (s)he is making the edits? Bob Moncrief ^EBD•W! 00:26, 27 March 2013 (UTC)

I would appreciate it. Seeing as he leads a decent sized (though debatedly so) group in the area, I can see where he would be protective of it, but it's important to keep the reports accurate. I'm just somewhat new to the forums and not really sure what authority I have, or if confronting someone directly is discouraged. --Boneshred The Hungry 00:41, 27 March 2013 (UTC)

I've messaged Zarak. And in general, on the wiki, it is best to ask a player directly on their talk page; if the issue remains unresolved, it can be brought to A/A or A/VB as appropriate. Bob Moncrief ^EBD•W! 01:26, 27 March 2013 (UTC)

Ok, thanks for the heads up, I'll be sure to try that first in the future --Boneshred The Hungry 03:19, 27 March 2013 (UTC)
