Right Click Report - Not Going Away

[Melaneth-dalaran]

Almost sounds like she wouldn’t bother if it weren’t just so darn easy.

[Altrageous-wyrmrest-accord]

Why would I do that when I could just rcr and have it automatically logged

You mean you prefer the convenience?

Well, yeah. And I imagine blizzard prefers it as well, as they would only need to pay attention to squelches rather than manually tallying up individual reports concerning a specific individuals and occurance.

[Ziryus-doomhammer (Ziryus)]

One report may not, but do we know what the number required is?

If it as few as 10, Johnny and his cronies could likely easily reach that number.

So since we don’t know it also may be as many 1000.

Do you imagine people have forgotten that you admitted that you are only on the classic forum to troll?

[Melaneth-dalaran]

Yeah, I’ve done data entry before, and as long as the reports list the name and a timestamp, you could just check the log, see if there was something there, and if not, move on. Every further report on that name and timestamp gets sent to File 13, since you already settled the issue.

[Eloraell-moon-guard]

Who cares if it takes them a few days to look at the report? If you have reported them, you’ve done your part. And if you put them on /ignore, you no longer have to see them, so it is no longer your problem.

Why should I, the paying, and legitimate customer, have to go through multiple hoops to ensure that the game is cleansed of yet another scumbag?

rcr isnt the problem. it is the auto squlech associated with it that is.

i posted about a week ago a fix that would solve the issue but people diddnt seem to get on board with it.

1. remove auto squelch on all but a new option “illegal services”.

2. any reports that wouldve resulted in an auto squelch are escalated into a priority queue for gms to review.

3. strongly punish people who use the “illegal services” option with a silence that would last as long as the person falsely accused would have gotten.

4. most importantly encourage people to use the /ignore function on people they dont want to hear from again as the rcr is only a temp ignore.

4 things would change it to where people that are afraid of its abuse would be assuaged and the people that care about getting rid of gold sellers would be fine with too.

through multiple hoops

There’s that inconvenience piece again.

[Fesz-cenarius]

Why would I do that when I could just rcr and have it automatically logged?

The convenience of RCR does not require that it be tied to auto squelch for most options.

Tying the RCR to an auto squelch only for an “illegal services” option still addresses and squelches gold sellers.

Why insist upon tying the RCR to an auto squelch in all cases if not to protect your option to impose your own brand of vigilante justice and punishment?

RCR addresses other TOS violations which also ran rampant.

[Eloraell-moon-guard]

No, its a justified issue. I shouldn’t have to do multiple things to remove gold sellers from the game.

You still haven’t justified why we shouldn’t have RCR, except for your wailing and moaning about yourself getting squelched because someone doesn’t like you.

RCR provides far more benefit, than the minor and easily ameliorated issues.

[Xcentrick-area-52]

thats the thing. they dont care that they are imposing their will on other people.

they actually prefer it that way.

Because there are a bunch of whiny, petulant children in adult bodies that get pissy if they are slightly inconvenienced out there, sheltered by anonymity of the internet, and giving them more tools that can be abused is like selling pre-made molotov cocktails at a riot. Sure, you’re not destroying property, but…

And also, points at doll’s heart I am wounded by the idea of keyboard vigilantes being aided in their quest to control people just because they got their panties in a twist.

wailing and moaning

Please quote my wailing and moaning. The hyperbole is beneath you, Eloraell.

Manual reporting wasn’t some 45 step process.

[Fesz-cenarius]

One report may not, but do we know what the number required is?

If it as few as 10, Johnny and his cronies could likely easily reach that number.

So since we don’t know it also may be as many 1000.

It may be, but we do not know.

IMO, 10 is simply too lpow a number and makes the RCR system far too easily abused.

If an auto squelch required a minimum of 100 separate reports, each from a different account (preferably a different BNET account to prevent multiboxers from artificially increasing the number of reports), then I could support an auto squelch for all options.

“You’re”?

Are you actually accusing me of reporting you for whining? Given that in this and other threads I’ve multiple times mentioned I haven’t even used RCR before. I fully intend to slam gold sellers and the like but don’t dare push your “Woe is me, you’re persecuting me for being a diva” nonsense on me.

[Fateweaver-misha (Fateweaver)]

You still haven’t justified why we shouldn’t have RCR,

1. Wasn’t in Vanilla
2. Can be abused
3. Same effect (account ban) can he accomplished through manual reporting

The pro-RCR crowd hasn’t justified why we NEED it in Classic beyond their moaning and wailing about how inconvenient manual reporting was, which accomplished the same thing.

[Eloraell-moon-guard]

Manual reporting wasn’t some 45 step process.

No, it was a highly ineffective and annoying process that usually resulted in a GM contacting you days later to ask what you saw.

The pro-RCR crowd hasn’t justified why we NEED it in Classic beyond their moaning and wailing about how inconvenient manual reporting was, which accomplished the same thing.

Because we don’t get Classic if we force them to use the same number GMs they did before.

Cost, my dear boy. Cost.

There’s that inconvenience piece again.

Some people are all about their own convenience, sometimes to the point of clabeling anyone that even suggests that convenience is not necessarily a good thing as “convenience police”.

You are literally the guy who rides in in the Whammbulance to complain that people are getting too convenient. You are the Convenience Police, Fesz.
