    I'm beggining to find this very annoying. There seems to be ALOT of innapropriate stuff going on in this game. Its not the game itself... but what people are saying... such as something that happened today, this is what somebody said: *SEXES WITH WIND DUDE* and there are many more. Its just getting downright annoying... this game may not have mods yet... but really people...

    I don't anyone from this forum was doing this... (except for one person that stopped)

      Yeah...I won myself a stalker <.<;; And it was not Pen Pen playing with me x.x;; it was some random guy that just popped up and started following me T_T;;

      Later on, I came back for a little bit and he just said: "Came back to check on me eh? e.e"

      [CENSORED] >.<!!!!

      I'm not the only one with this problem @.@;; So, I'll just stick to my friends n.n; (Even though the stlakers still follow us -_-;; )

          This is inappropriate obviously. You best bet is to copy down the username and what they said exactly and tell them they will be in trouble.

          If that doesn't stop, PM your info to Max I guess. He can deal with them.

          Keep in mind, it's just a server test and once the 1.0 version comes out with mods, that won't happen.

            I know it's not the full version, but I think it would be best if we get some sort of enforcement out there... I know I wouldn't feel comfortable letting my 11 year old brother play on GSW...and he's a member here, so I'm sure he'll want to eventually.

                  What we need in the final version is a group of mods, spread over the timezones. That should help tone everything down.

                  Same here Anubis. A group of us in my timezone worked out how to enter any sprite we want. It's always nice to stand on the roof of the center house and watch people try to get on :D.

                  If you get stalked, just stand still and ignore them. They get bored eventually :angry: :blink:.

                    Not really you, alot of people have been doing this. And you stopped after awhile anyway. :D

                    Geez I've already reported 2 people!

                    Thats a good idea Neon, and we need more than 1 person in each timezone.

                        Yeah, I've encountered some stalkers too.. -_-' Actually, there has been stalkers almost every time I've been in GSW. :P

                        Kikuichimonji, if someone hids in the screen, you can still see his name from the message box. (a little right from where you type the letters). This is handy when someone becomes "a ghost" and hides behind the golden sun. :P

                          Yeah, and a game has been created a while ago and it's called, "Dance Around Linear!"

                          It's now become a daily dance.

                          And I'm still being stalked. -.-;;

                                Modding won't be easy, it's not easy getting people to come online at a certain time to Moderate a place, here's a few ideas I think may work:

                                1. Email a few users asking them to keep their eyes peeled for trouble makers and to send a report on what they've done, if this users name has popped in in several of the "Watchers" email reports, then you know this person is a troublemaker and should be banned.

                                2. Or, make a more advanced reporting system where if a person get's bad feedback let's say 10 times in 2 weeks, he is given a temporary ban, when the temp. ban expires and he gets anotehr load of bad deedback, he/she is permanantly banned.

                                That's my 2 penny's there for you all.

                                  if there should be a reporting system then maybe the trouble makers will use that to report non-troublemakers

                                  but its just a theory

                                    Hmm... true. They might do that... but theres a way around that, though, have you noticed the little paper betton next to the 'type in message' column? People would have to type in a message to report people like you do here and complain about what the offender was doing... and then a mod comes by and will look at all the messages, and after finding the offending message he can give the offender a warning or something. Max and AveneR probably have a better reporting an warning system on there mind though. -_-

                                      I think it wouldn't be too hard to mod...you'd just need several, and give them the ability to warn/suspend accounts. Sure, they can't be online ALL the time, but they can be on quite a bit, and I'm sure there would be a way to send them messages about offenders (reporting system, PM on GSS, etc.).

                                      I think about 3 -active- (<---note the EMPHASIS on active) moderators for it to work. And of course, no system is perfect and without fault. I'm sure there is going to be the occassional person that goes unpunished or unreported, but that is going to happen no matter what system we use.

                                      I know this would probably be a very hard thing to do programming wise, but a really good idea is to have the game be the mod itself. Like for instance, if someone were to put something inappropriate, like excessive swearing or something, and be given a message that pops up giving you a warning. If it continues the game kicks you off, and doesn't let you one for a day or so. If after that they still continue, then it bans them from the game.

                                          But this isn't airport security, we can't have people trying to come online at a certain time just to watch over GSW, no offense but anyone who is actually willing to do something like that either has no life (Sorry) or doesn't know what they're getting themselves into.

                                            The same thing applies to moderating a forum. No, moderators cannot be on the whole time. They don't schedule when they get on, usually. The GSW mods would handle things as they seem them, or they are reported to them by other GSWers that were online. It doesn't need to be perfect. No system of enforcement is.

                                            Either that or they are committed to their jobs. As I said, of course there will be people that get away, but that's not really the point. IMO, it would be more beneficial than not having moderators at all, even if it can't cover everything. :blink:

                                              I think the best solution would be to have lots of people in different time zones be mods. That way if someone logs off there will usually be another couple of mods playing.

                                                A top heavy system doesn't work though...if a large amoutn of GSW's active members are mods there won't be much fun or point to it.. o_~

                                                I say we try out whatever system Max and AveneR decide to implement, and see how that works before thinking up our own ideas.. :blink:

                                                  Well, Meglo...it wouldn't matter if regular's were mod's, they could do stuff all the same, just have to warn people every once and while (every couple of minutes :| )

                                                    Maybe putting both systems together will be best? A reporting system that allows Mods to look out for already reported and known troublemakers, and at the same time to walk around and find new ones themselves?

                                                      Yes, that could work.But this is all up to Max and AveneR.

                                                        I assume that is how it would work.

                                                        That's how it is on forums, too.

                                                            Remember people that you wouldn't be forced to get on at different times. You would strtegically pick mods who usually get on at that time. For example, if you picked a mod from Australia (me, me! :blink: ) and that person got on at, say, 7pm, they could watch over both the ausies and the people up late in America.

                                                            You wouldn't have Americans getting on at 1am to watch over Australians :lol:.
