I just want to note that there IS a difference between some of the sorts of things said.
Verbal Abuse and trash talking are TWO completely different things.
Although they MAY be close to the same and there may be a slim line between the two, One is to increse competition, the other is to shoot down someone or a group of people. [Opression]
I don't think both of these should be moderated to the same extent.
Verbal abuse should have less of a tolerence.
Where IF trash talking is MODERATED by people, that shouldn't be infracted at all. However extensive Trash talking is then Verbal Abuse then it goes without saying that, that too should be not tolerable.
Perhaps infractions AREN'T doing the trick, I understand infractors are doing this to "CREATE" jobs for mods however, I know on a bunch of other forms this is harrassment and can be treated in that mannor. INTENTIONALLY creating chaos can lead to a small group of people doing it which in turn translates that it is ok to take mods lightly to the rest.
I also don't think its clear enough or posted anywhere, WHAT exactly the effects of disobaying the rules are. I mean yes I see a lot of people being infracted as they cockily post them, but yet again I haven't seen a post or a thread about "3 infractions = so and so" sorts of posts. Possibly a clarification is needed, and possibly a more thurough set of rules, what IS tolerable but frowned apon and what IS NOT tolerable.
Also in regards to the thread, It's up to the people of NB to FIND the rules being broke, it's up to the mods to deal with these reports. If you don't see something you think is offencive or against the rules, report it.
Regarding the rules update I just made: Something like what you should expect when breaking RP rules, what you should expect when breaking normal rules ect.
As for RP I think possibly a forum wide wikia is in order? This could possibly clear up arguements. If anything is disagreed on they can type it in on wikia and POSSIBLY find the answer instantly.
For example I've seen a discussion on how Sharingan Users are effected by Genjutsu, it's noted that it doen't work at all and others say it works and there are theorys to this. I think almost everyone is tired of a 2 post fight and 4 pages of argueing that goes along with it. [From what I've heard and talked to people and seen]
