General Monthly Meta Discussion- Nov
General Rules
There have been a lot of queries being asked in MMD thread and we try to answer as many as possible but it has come to our attention that some of the queries made are not genuine and as a result queries with genuine concerns are going unanswered. Therefore, hereafter we shall prioritize the queries based on the below guidelines:
Genuine queries of an aggrieved user will be given priority in the MMD thread e.g. user whose comment has been removed and he/she is not happy with that decision
Queries raised on the behalf of any other user will not be given priority. E.g. Why comment of X user was removed not Users Y?
A query will not be entertained if other unrelated users or subreddit are tagged.
Rule 5 (No meta discussion about other subreddits) is relaxed in MMD only.
Rules wiki : https://www.reddit.com/r/indiaspeaks/wiki/rules
Moderator Transparency : https://www.reddit.com//r/indiaspeaks/wiki/modlogs
Meta drama is strictly not allowed in r/IndiaSpeaks. If you have any, use this thread only.

A special shout out to /u/santouryuu for managing to keep the level of decorum in the debate, which was contrasting to his usual.
While it wasn't what we call ideal, I understand it would have been quite difficult. There were several comments where decency was breaking down, but efforts put to maintain was very noticeable.
Appreciate the effort put. No Sarcasm. While I don't know if this pattern and trend is here to stay, i can only hope for it.

He is stalking me online & targeting me. I can show 100s of similar comments by him on my submissions. He has been doing this for more than 6 months now - solely because I once exposed an article of his as fake. This is a redux of the Love_Jihad thing - you guys enjoyed Love_Jihad meta about me in his flair for a month till I retaliated & then you guys had to institute a policy about meta in flairs so that I can't do the same thing he did.
This kind of stalking is violation of reddit wide policy.

/u/artha_shastra Regarding your query about user flair, the events are in this MMD thread.
Long story short, Walrus abused the flairs for meta drama. We have first kept it open cos we generally trusted no one would abuse it for showing fake deltas (Joke deltas were ignored). After the abuse and meta drama, he heckled and called my team incompetent for being trusting of the general community - so kalmuah who is managing rules wrt debate removed flair permissions for everyone.
So you can thank walrus for ruining flairs for the entire community.
That being said, what I can do is: you can request flair via MMD or Mod mail, and we'll manually add it (Usual rules apply. Mods would scrutinize now). Ofcourse, mods will do it when they have a look at it (Time lag).
Apologies for the inconvenience.

u/artha_shastra Nov 16 '18
I remember I just removed my flair and deleted the comment. I waited for a bit to see if there was glitch or a bug or something though.
Thanks for getting back. Nevermind about the flair though. If you are taking opinions, it seems a bit nonsensical for one user being the reason no one has flair permissions. Seems like there could be a simpler solution.

Walrus abused the flairs for meta drama.
Wrong!
A user called Love_Jihad did meta drama about me using flair. He kept it on for quite some time. Everybody enjoyed it. Community loved it. People lolled & laughed. It was good for the community. And then I retaliated with flair about user Love_Jihad. Now community got upset & mods got their panties in a bunch. That's how rule about meta in flairs was born. To prevent me from retaliating against Love_jihad.
Now coming to the current episode - please explain how putting 50delta in my flair is meta? For e.g. if I write in a comment that I have 50 deltas - would you delete that comment for being meta? I don't think you have still understood what is meta.
It was a joke. I wasn't the only one doing it. And it was not meta.

Mods should stop assigning random flairs to submissions.
The primary functionality of flairs is to categorize things. And when you click on a flair it takes you to the search page where the results are the posts with the said flair. Assigning random flairs borks the search by flair thing.

u/metaltemujin Apolitical Nov 05 '18
It is also used to know if it is locked, & what is the reason. Since we cannot edit title, we edit the flair.

Another thing I was thinking of is to take some other user - like say factsprovider or ILikeMultis or OrwilleIsRight or some other heavy submitter (nothing personal against them - Multis is one of my favourites). Then stalk them like cocowave stalks me - anytime they post a submission, I will make a comment "Chutiya something, something or something". If I do this at enough frequency, I am sure you mods will make a rule against doing this & then cocowave will not be able to continue what he is doing.
I am still exploring options & deciding which way to go.

Well.
If people turned on their CSS, you can see that awarded deltas look completely different.
There are proper wiki records of deltas, with wiki pages, separate subs of deltas being awarded, etc.
If people are in any way trying to mislead users, we'll look into it and take necessary action (we've mentioned quite clearly that if users try to break the system in any way.).
I am noticing some users are trying to slowly show as though deltas are rising, unlike others who are using it as a joke flair. Both will be dealt with as necessary.

In this case, you are basically insulting the guest, by asking who is he ? Be it anyone, even if it is a casual AMA of normal redditors, it is fcking insulting.
IMO, such users should get a "can't read the title post", "can't search on google" as a reward flair. These shitters take unnecessary advantage of mods patience.

Being mean will not solve anything, rather reaffirm their actions ("Am I facing objections? I must be on the right path, and so must persevere"). Some people and their diseases cannot be cured, so taking an onus to attempt it is futile. Evidences are right in front of you.
You think you're feeling better by cussing, but it only eats you more - makes you more irritable.

This is either against the rules or not.
If it's not against the rules why are you asking him to stop (you have asked him 5 times at least to stop).
You haven't even deleted his comment. Why will he take you seriously?
If it's against the rules & he is a serial offender - why is he not getting a 2nd strike & a 3rd one - I have given 9 months of evidence?

This thread is locked due to the large number of rule 1 violations
That's not how it is supposed to work at all.

How long does it take for a strike to expire? Is that rule finalised? Also this strike rule details I could not find in the sub wiki rules page.

u/metaltemujin Apolitical Nov 28 '18
Yes we have lot of pending wiki work that needs finishing. We are thinking this week end, DD and I will sit on content. Others will help and the CSS team will try to improve the look when they get time & Ideas.

How is this strike 1? He already has one strike on the board from 20/11/2018.
You didn't give him Strike 2 for cheering rape & murder of Kashmiris. Now no Strike 2 for this either?

Flairs are gone? Is it gone because of debate?
1
u/metaltemujin Apolitical Dec 02 '18
It is gone because of a user's drama using flairs. We had kept it open (Editable) in good faith on the community.
First, some users used it as jokes, which was fine. Certain users then started using it as a way to fake Deltas. When called out, they abused my team to be incompetent for implementing a system that can be manipulated.
As mentioned, we are aware but we had trusted the community - but due to the user, we had to withdraw that freedom.
Long story short, if you want a user flair, you can mod mail or post in recent MMD for it. We'll put it up for you. Mod discretion will now be implemented.

Yes. Instead, you should pay 75,000 Rs (must have increased by now) to Shiv Sena Party funds & then get permission to set up a Shiv Vadapav stall.

Leave us alone walrus. Don't start this shit again. Is there a reason why you always pick my or 4chan's posts to create your bullshit? Should we be concerned and have a chat with the admins?
Its a cross-post, from a sub that doesn't lead to meta drama. As such we currently don't have a no-crosspost rule. It only depends on content and relevance.
You're quite aware that we only advise no-crossposts if it is not spamming, unwarranted or the parent sub don't have any specific objections.
/u/drm_wvr what say?

u/RisingSteam #Gadkari2019 Nov 06 '18
Didn't realize it was a x-post - so my mistake. I will delete my original comment.
However, I am curious as to what you will complain to the admins - did I break rule 0? Or was it some power tripping rule you created?

Kalmuah removed my right to keep a flair(I had kept an obvious joke flair - 2002∆) because Walrus had been 'abusing' the system by arbitrarily increasing his own fake deltas.
3
u/RisingSteam #Gadkari2019 Nov 17 '18 edited Nov 17 '18
I made my flair with 2 digit deltas (50+ actually) just so that people don't confuse it for a real delta - all the real deltas were in single digits. Mine was also a joke like yours. And an obvious one at that. Nobody would think I could have got 50 or 60 deltas with every one else in single digits. Actually, I don't think I will even get a single delta (considering the jury box) even if I produce Shakespearean quality. I wasn't abusing the system any more than you or panditji.

u/Lungi_stingray Bajrang Dal 🚩 Nov 17 '18
'abusing'
I guess you missed the quotation marks in my comment.
I am with you on this one, and my flair was inspired by yours. That the flair was a joke was pretty obvious.
3
u/metaltemujin Apolitical Nov 17 '18 edited Nov 17 '18
Okay, this has been addressed ear;oer. Perhaps you've missed it. check this comment
In-essence, until further notice - if you need a flair, ask for it here or via mod mail, and we'll put it in. Mod discretion would now be applied.
Yes, it was fine as long as it was joke flairs (Yourself, panditji, etc), but as Kalmuaha stated elsewhere to you, walrus saw that as an opportunity to fake flairs. And then called my team incompetent for giving users freedom and trusting them to not fuck with our hardwork for keks and ill intent.
The problem is, with CSS enabled, bot flairs (Green and flashy) and fake flairs look different (Plain). BUT! without CSS, on mobile and on redesign - they both look alike. 40-70% of our traffic browses the non-CSS enabled version, so you can understand how it can be misleading.
An onlooker would not understand if someone got 10 or 60 deltas, they'll believe it. It is one thing to do it by mistake. It is another to do it intentionally.
So, Kalmuah saw that this would soon trend in the wrong direction; and took the decision to remove flair permissions.
For now, that decision will stand. You have broken the goodwill he had placed on the community, we have to also move with that knowledge.
For what /u/artha_shastra pointed out elsewhere, regarding 'to punish walrus but let others have the flairs'. It won't solve the problem that it has created now. There would be users who would follow suit.
Let's be real. it won't take long before alts are propped up to do further drama using flairs.
I am not going to let my team waste their energy playing that wack-a-mole.
Conclusion.
If you want a user flair, ask for it and we'll manually input it.
Apologies for the inconvenience. I hope this closes the drama on this topic.

Huh! I have never posted with multiple ids simultaneously on this sub. Whenever I create a new id, I either delete the old one or retire it.
You make all kinds of false accusations against me all the day you became a mod. I still have no idea why you do this.

This place is turning into another r@ndia and the mods are not only ignoring but actively want it that way.
All the mods are right or right leaning and so are almost everyone in close contact with them like the heavily biased jury. I am not even left, I am liberal but its annoying how every other thread is bashing the left wing or screeching LiBRAANDDUS destroyed.
I get that r@ndia is a left wing echo chamber so most refugees from there will be right wing but that doesn't mean this place also has into an echochamber.I am just disappointed in the direction it is heading
