Karma Police
Mike Tyson:
So I was thinking about the whole lack of karma info problem folks are having since the recent forum change.
Like many others, I used to head straight for the karma change description page to see what had been happening, and do miss having that facility. So, a potential solution is as follows:
Have a topic dedicated to karma change, and make it a sticky (am I right in thinking this keeps it at the top of the page?) so if you felt someone needed wadding or puntering, you do so then nip over to the karma topic and put down what you did and why. You could even paste a link to the topic in which the karma change took place.
Basically, it’s a manual version of what used to be automated. But it would appear in the recent unread posts section fairly regularly, and would act as a way of seeing karma change until a better solution is found?
I’m just spitballing ideas I guess. So feel free to tell me I’m stupid or a genius (via wad or punter button no doubt!)
Mike Tyson:
Nice one.
I can realistically manage without it (must admit my visits to the site have been dwindling for a few years even prior to software upgrade shenanigans) just I noticed a lot of people were missing it so figured my idea might have been of some use.
Fair play to you and the other IO’s for reacting to the people though :great:

Sadly Mike this reaction has also included banning one long time user for posting feedback in one of the forum threads - and one moderator is, er, now no longer a moderator.
I suspect my fate will be similar for posting this - which for me would be a shame - but I thought people ought to know the above.

Really?
Well, this is getting silly; isn’t it.
I must have missed the insults etc. I hadn’t seen much beyond moderate criticism. The odd bit of re-iteration from those who clearly hadn’t trawled through earlier comments, but hardly personal attacks, surely?
Time for a clear statement of position and intention from the IO’s?
Rather than people having to trawl through several pages of comments, questions, answers and (apparently) insults?

In which case you should report it accurately...

If its who I think you are talking about they were last logged in to the UKB forum this morning and my understanding is that they are not banned from UKB, they have been banned from a related Farcebook group.

Is this because of their feedback or because they were no longer active in that role? How much moderation have they done in the last year? If they've not been active in that role then personally I see no harm in reconfiguring users administration levels during the forum revamp (this has happened to me on sub-Reddits I was promoted to moderate on but since I wasn't doing anything I was demoted, no big deal). Only those involved will know those details though.
