Localised Girl,
==============

trying to work out whats going on? i would like to answer that but if i do here, my post would be yikesed, have to catch up on the phone with you sometime

i dont know if your posts will be spied upon, but from whats been put in the aces forum, people are watching my posts cos i lead them to Awol

Mort,

i missed this 1

the italics????? i keep hearing them being referred to but i dont know who/where they are

im not on about personality clashes, some of the aces have acted innapropriately, im not here to make friends, but it would seem to rubbish my points which i feel are valid, some of the comments suggest i personally have a grudge, in some of the examples i gave they had nothing to do with me

well i aint flippin awol....n can they actually do that? i mean....spy on u..isnt it summat to do with privatisation...they need a warrant lol
well let em spy....as long as they keep out zee business they may lurk as much as they wish
hey is this a free speech site btw or r we controlled...
i mean obviously not allowed to swear but i can say this without bein told off n smacked?

the italics are the editors of h2g2, they are nicknamed that because their names appear in italics in posts or on the who's online list.

Yes, i wanted to make it clear that the comment from me about personality clashes was aimed at everyone, not at you. As you say if it resorts to bickering amongst anyone contributing to this discussion then it does devalue your original points that you have made because people cannot respond/support or answer what you have said.

Mort,
=====

thankyou at last somebody with a serious comment to make and not taking the 'mick' to rubbish me

im not asking for back up/support etc i can speak for myself but lets make it clear what i have said is true and the issues raised should be dealt with instead on just pointing out that im a troublemaker..i have never claimed to be anything i am not, and i always hold my hand up to anything i have done but in this case i am saying other people on this site should also be held accountable ESPECIALLY (oops not shouting) if they are abusing their position





time to go all, be back later to view/respond to comments

Hello Insomniac Vampire,

If you have any complaints about any issues regarding h2g2 that you feel we should be addressing in-house then please send an email to [email protected] and we'll do our best to deal with them.

Thanks,

h2g2 Editors

See? Italics! Magic, aren't they?

But seriously, if you do have any issues you need to work through with them, I'm sure they'd be more than happy.

Whoami?

Cup of , glass of , anybody?

s to find a big cliff to jump off

*hides all cliffs*

Just so you all know, I've said all I have to say on this thread now. I'll continue to read, but I do not intend to post any more.

Whoami?

i think as the h2g2 editors say its maybe best if you send an email with the issues your talking about, the point you make about certain people "not being honest" i feel is unfair i dont know if you include me in that comment if not im sorry, finally i can assure you im not interested if a person is from another site or not as the case maybe as an <./>ACE</.> i try my best to help newbies/researchers as much as possible no matter if they were on LD or not

Whilst its good to know there's an email address to contact if you have complaints about certain procedures(that works for digiboxes too) on h2g2, I can't see why this issue shouldn't be discussed onsite.

From what I've noticed recently *some* <./>ACE</.>'s have decided that they are h2g2's own little police force. Now I've read the <./>ACEs-codeofconduct</.> and can't see where this is one of their duties. I know since being on reactive moderation and while the Iraq procedures were about they were asked to keep a look out for transgressions. Has this now become official policy?

I'd also like to add that most <./>ACEs</.> do a good job and would just like to be clear on what else ACE's do other than what it states on the ACE forum.

Vamp...

Wow you knew my name on l.d big deal im afraid im not going back over this its geting us no where fast to be honest with you i didn`t know you on l.d (or)not that i can remember becouse if you remember i left l.d well well well earlyer than when it closed down to digibox users
I remember who i talked to on l.d
i dont remember you at all
Becouse i came on here insted of l.d

kow,

Unless I've missed an email , neither the ACEs nor any other volunteer group have become h2g2's "own little police force". Their role is, as it always has been, to welcome new users to the site, and to help them to learn the ropes. If any ACEs are additionally commendably making an effort to uphold the House Rules of the site - which exist to ensure that h2g2 is a friendly place, not to cause conflict - this isn't because they were "ordered" to do so.

This was in fact part of the Peer Moderation Pilot we had sometime ago (we're now fully peer moderated ). One aim was to check that it was _every_body who used the moderation system, not just the volunteers. The only time the italics have really prompted yiksing has been in some cases of spamming. At all other times it's at the discretion of the researcher. The key rule to yiksing as a volunteer is to really only do it when you're finding it offensive. Yiksing 'by the book' can be destructive in some cases...

h2g2 support,

ill consider it, i mean i have a lot to think about..some of the aces in this thread have mocked my comments, these being the same aces you say you are very happy for their contributions, is there much point when you already have a view?

Whoami?

just read their post, thanks i will think about it

starfleet,

i deliberately ignored the other comments you made and not just because you repeat everything other people have said!

i think if i want to be taken seriously in this thread its best i avoid you, but then knowing you of old aswell perhaps thats why you keep popping up?!
