request to 1 up trolling offense to severity low. (up from none)

[kyle1234513]

as the title suggests, i think that trolling should be a reportable offense. i know this would make more work for moderators, however i think it is necessary.

i also think that 3 confirmed cases of trolling should amound to 1 report of gamethrowing, such that it would requier 6 cases of 1 person being confrimed of trolling to take action and place the user onto watchlist.

i would think more users added to watchlist and then eventually kickvote would cause them to shape up and would send them a messege to start to play the game right or stay away.

the changes would be subtle at first, but as time progressed more and more would end up on watchlist and i estimate it would clean up games over the course of 3 to 4 months.

i think that trolling is often easy to spot, and certain key players have a known record of it, however since its nothing rule breaking they can do it unchecked all day long. and troll multiple games a day, altering the mafia experience for many.

if trolling were upd to low severity and a reportable offense i believe it would clean up games, i also think the amount of extra work for moderators would be minimul seeing as how they can review cases at their leisure.

Lol, do you understand the basis of Mafia?

There will always, always be trolling.

Doing this will just get over half the user base banned.

and then it would learn them not to do it or stay away. would you prefer a game wait time of 2 minutes, and then play with a bunch of trolls, or a wait time of say 8 minutes and play with real players.

Mafia isn't supposed to be super up-tight anal.

I would rather play every two minutes with new people each time and have a good round of laughs except for the occasional buzzkill than weight eight minutes, play with the same old faces every time, and act like I'm in a board meeting, where the slightest act of trolling gets you instantly lynched and reported.

trolling is 100% a legitimate strategy, as any faction.

Pretty much this. What if I'm mafia and I troll in a game so that people think I'm jester, thus avoiding being lynched?

or a doctor avoiding being shot?
honestly, pretty much any role except investigative. because no one will listen if you have shit to say. but even then, it can be done.

trolling isn't really a strategy when everyone is doing it.

What do you have to blend in for when everyone is acting stupid?

I think this calls for a thread close. You've gotten the answer from the man in charge, so..

I can...do something that makes it seem like I'm moderating this section?

OH HAPPY DAY

Yeah, it's not happening, thread closed.

[Lysergic]

Trolling should be encouraged. Dur.

[Slaol]

If trolling were an offense we would have to ban the creator of the game.
Opened and double closed.
