h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Abusive posting is an issue that could effect anybody. Frome a person seeking an ACE badge, does the conduct of that person not come into it when they apply for an ACE badge?

The issue I have is about an person wanting an ACE badge yet thinks they can treat people in such a way as looked at in post 1800. Not just on a message center but any thread accross the all h2g2. Is this the kind of person you want as an ACE?

A link has been sent to you, via the iCan 'send a private message' to the thread post 1800 relates to.

Jimster, take it up a level or 50 will you, I know the difference between my forum and a public thread.

Some times a question may have to appear hypothetical, as not to start a flame war. Even though the question I asked was about real events, but as I said you have a link to it now, possibly you could share the information with Natalie?

Jimster posted "not her application thread"

Who said it was a her? Hope your not falling into the same trap as others.

Regardless, Jab, I am not going to discuss an individual's behaviour in this thread - if I were to do that with every individual we still wouldn't have reached a solution by *next* Christmas. Please stop trying to draw the conversation in that direction; if an individual's behaviour causes you distress, use the complaints procedure.

Then you understand why I have been avoiding posting a link that would identify the individual, from post 1800.

Even though the question showed the actual words of an individual, it was only to show the way some people post on site. Even if presented in a 'whats people opinion of' way.

If people thought it acceptable, then any cause of complaint about ACE conduct would probably be redundant, if that had shown to be acceptable.

Since you "would'nt like it", nor I to be on the receiving end of that kind of remark... It can then lead onto another question...

Mobbing has been show to take place. So would it be upto an ACE to put a stop to any post thrown at a person by others - after the ACE has show complaint, then admitted a mistake on their part. Possibly only in e-mail, shame they are good enough to post complaint on site, but not good enough to post an on site retaraction, then not helping to stop others mob people?

Should ACE sycophants remain unchecked, and ACE conduct for non correction of situations the ACE creates go unchecked?

Dear The Works Cat,

Thank you for alerting us to this error, which has now been corrected.

Regards,

h2g2 Feedback

It is a prime example of the witch-hunt mentality though (which is just as endemic to this site as the more general mob mentality is) since The Works Cat did not really appear to behave like AWOL. One of the prime indications of a genuine AWOL account would seem to be it going round to certain other accounts and saying "I'm AWOL". Although this is not conclusive either way, it is certainly a nice big clue for the intellectually challenged. Could it possibly be *ACEs* (or ACE wannabes) running and telling false tales to the staff again?
