An actual "bans" system that auto-lifted and managed bans would be nice, yes, and I considered implementing it on 1.9x before I lost total interest...
The rest was just a pain to do, but now it shouldn't be too hard, all you'd have to do is keep a "lastforum" field in "threads" (or even another table with moves/deletions) and show a placeholder thread if it isn't actually in that forum anymore... The thread closing thing would be easier to put in, I guess some Javascript to pop up a dialogue that says "Reason for close/move/trash: xxxxxxxx" and then have that listed in the thread somewhere... but a lot of times, when I close a thread, it's because of an obvious reason (or I post it), but still. And I'd say to rework the ban system entirely, and have a kind of "actions" table (or something) that would list why users were warned and such (mabye have a "Warn for this post" link? hmm...) that would be clearly listed in a user's profile to them and all other staff (not normal users)... and make it auto-PM someone, with the reason why they were warned/banned too. That way, "warning" would become more standardized instead of "No, you PM him, I'm lazy."  ____________________ I dealt with it. |

I think "Warn for this post" would have a variety of options to choose from (including x-hour, x-day and permabans), not just warnings... but you ge tthe idea.
I think only showing the "actions taken vs. user" should only be visible to that specific user, and any staff. That way, the user knows who to PM regarding matters (and could even have a special link to fill the PM with some generic information, like "Regarding [action taken] with a quote of the post?") and can contact that person instead of wondering who it was. I wouldn't show it because there's no real reason to publicly criticize someone for a few small mistakes (warnings), but things like bans should be publicly listed albeit without an admin name. /me shrugs ____________________ I dealt with it. |

those are actually good ideas. I usually don't like placeholders, but if they go away they're fine. I had suggested a "reason" field for bans before, and for closed threads its good too, because I don't have to waste my time bumping a thread that should be closed. ____________________ |

Posted by Tarale I'm flattered--or is it flattened  --but yes, I agree with this idea, although it won't change anything. It's foolish to think there is any sort of justice--justice on the internet, you've got to be kidding me--inherent on this board. It's pretty obvious the only real rule is "don't disagree with people with more power than you." Am I implying there's a caste system on this board? No, I'm going out and saying it. Underlings have no right to say anything to their betters.

Maybe have it so that when someone is banned, the title field has to be filled out as a required field? Granted, sometimes people will type "GTFO" in there, but at least then you're somewhat forced to explain what happened. |

What in 1.B did work well?
Kles: Why wouldn't it work? You could have...
It'd be easy to do even. ____________________ I dealt with it. |

That all sounds good to me.
