The first thing I want to say is that this isn't an attempt to get Iscariot banned for his previous actions, even though he is the reason I brought this up. I don't think this should be retroactive. --_Vic D'Amato__Dead vs Blue_ 01:34, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
- Do we really need this? UDbullies aren't so bad. And not only that, but this case you referred to looks like it's going to get Vandalism anyway. See, the system is gold. DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 04:38, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
- The reason I brought this up is the fact that the TOS isn't exactly clear on what's "offensive", and as of right now, there's no easy way to deal with people who exist on this wiki simply to harass people. Unless they're going about it in a way that does constitute vandalism, they're not going to go through A/VB, and the fact that there are so many Not Vandalism votes in the Iscariot case makes me wonder if lesser cases would even be punished by A/VB at all. Which is why we need something like this in place to cover these types of cases tht aren't clear-cut. --_Vic D'Amato__Dead vs Blue_ 04:43, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
- There's also no easy way to deal with people who exist in this world simply to harass other people. Consider the wiki a training ground. When you get a job and have to deal with douchebags for 8+ hours a day for the rest of your life there won't be an option to institute a civility policy. Who would decide what's civil and what's not, anyway? Why not just eliminate the stupid fucking suggestions page? You should be able to use crucifixes as weapons? Really? You know what else would be sweet? Sniper rifles! Let me get a couple of those over here. How about a skateboard? Or an X-wing fighter? Nunchuks? --Paddy Dignam 04:57, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
