@Harakoni What are you laughing at, are you a literal retard, go look up what Code 230 does, it would literally result in more censorship as websites would be liable to anything posted there.

No.

Your own referenced previous link here ( https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/47/230 ) disproves this, and i assume you've made the mistake of falling for the over-complex legal terminology.
This is not a removal of Code 230, but an amendment to the already existing Code 230.

I'll copy and paste the policy lines that you may have misinterpreted;

"(2)to preserve the vibrant and competitive free market that presently exists for the Internet and other interactive computer services, unfettered by Federal or State regulation;"
This spells out the United States most important internet policy for Freedom of Speech and Expression in regards to the Internet.

"(3)to encourage the development of technologies which maximize user control over what information is received by individuals, families, and schools who use the Internet and other interactive computer services;"
This policy explains that the user must be given the power to filter what content is displayed on their screen to avoid algorithm bias. I mentioned this prior with "Left Leaning people fed more Left news, Right leaning fed Right news". Unless the user dictates that this filtering is to take place, and instead the company or provider automatically filters based on bias or agenda - it violates Code 230.

"(4)to remove disincentives for the development and utilization of blocking and filtering technologies that empower parents to restrict their children’s access to objectionable or inappropriate online material;"
Allows optional blocking systems to still be designed and implemented for content filtering inappropriate to children. (18+ filters, etc)

See additionally this section;
(c)Protection for “Good Samaritan” blocking and screening of offensive material
"(1)Treatment of publisher or speaker
No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider."
This over complex statement means that any company or an overarching body (eg Google, Twitter, YouTube) is independent of the users using their platforms to make use of it for opinions. 
The companies do not take responsibility for what is said on a forum/website/video/tweet. 

This overall only applies to actions outside of a site's ToS. However; Company's ToS will be amended in order to not violate section 2 of Policies around policing, blocking, and filtering of speech.
 

Right just read over the full legislative change and nowhere does it prohibit action on people "talking shit".

The full legislation, for people who actually want to know it's purpose, is to prevent large overaching bodies such as Twitter, Facebook, Google, YouTube, and other large sites from doing the following;
-Withholding income gain based on the users political opinions
-Manufacturing and tailoring of algorithms to present a bias in presented news (left classed people fed more left style news, vice versa)
-Performing blacklists, shadowbans, and account suspensions/removals for political opinion on an a company level. (People can still block other people)

This does not change legal guidelines or standings on other issues such as lewd, violent or harmful posts as well as filtering for children.

TL;DR -
You can't de-monitise or remove someone's account/posts for expressing a political opinion unless violating a limit of lewd, violent, or harmful concepts.

Closed.

Ban resolved itself.

It has to do with the how I've seen suspected ban evasion handled by server admins that were just given mod perms in the past just because they were senior admins. There was no proof other than "i know it's (banned account), they dm'd me and said they were joining on an alt" this happened more times than i've been able to count. When I've refused to ban said "ban evading account" I became the bad guy in the server admins eyes for not shooting from the hip and banning an account without evidence that wasn't breaking any rules other than existing. 

This is in reference to me and nblock alts, I know. 

I'll explain my process of action if it clarifies anything as to how exactly i make the final decision to confirm it's an nblock alt. It's not a guessing game - it's getting as close to confirming every option as possible
Usually what happens is an account will catch my eye - I do not actively look or sort through every account that passes my screen - it can do this in multiple ways;
- The account is new to discord
- The profile name is a play on something i know has happened nblock, or between me and him personally, he has very easy to identify mannerisms 
- I'm informed an admin on HnS has a DM or knows he's alting (Screensharing in another disc, direct confirmation from him to the admin to annoy them deliberately,
- The profile picture is roughly associated or closely related to past experiences i've had with nblock and recent ones

A single one of these is not definitive proof - it just means i know move to a secondary stage of investigation;
- Speech format - If the account has talked, i will review the messages to my past experience and logs from nblock to match mannerisms, key phrases and words. Yes, i analyse the accounts speech, I'm that dedicated.
- Account activity commonalty, Is the account active at the same time as nblock? Does the account go active when he goes idle, vice versa
- Meme posts. Nblock will almost always post some sort of meme but has a selective and very similar sense of humour to me. If the account posts something i find funny, me and nblock have remarked upon in the past, or memes I myself and others have posted in shared discords, I tally it to the list.

Once i have ran down this list, i will begin a third phase of direct interaction - either with nblock or the account. 
- I'll post a meme with direct connection or close connection to me and nblock - and see what the account does. If it goes idle or offline, I tally that on again, if it continues seemingly unphased with no stutter or break in talking speed, i don't.

At this point, i'll turn to others who may have the same suspicions or been tipped off he's alting, and together we will make a final decision to ban or not.

I have ran this process with a total of 12+ account now, in games and discord, and not once has any appealed, gone active in discords i cannot touch the account in after the ban, or attempted to contact me or others. I will repeat what i said at the start; It is not a guessing game. I make sure there's not a mistake.

Now for the actual post -

This brings up another "complaint" because it's not based on anything other than certain individuals attempting to create an issue from a non-issue. These certain individuals claim that mods are inactive, don't respond to pings to do mod work, and don't know the server or how it runs. This is false for a number of reasons.

1. These individuals avoid pinging mods to allow issues to escalate beyond what they initially were so they can say "mods are inactive, remove them".
2. I accepted mod applications from a few server staff, (game masters and admins) and I plan on accepting more cwrp staff in the future. A group of discord mods even started playing on the game server itself trying to integrate into the cwrp community and learn how things work.
3. Every time mods are pinged there's usually at least two or three of them that respond almost instantly, like they're waiting to do work. They just need to know where there's stuff that needs done because you can't watch literally everything at once.

I have seen this happen yes, however It is not me. Where i have been involved, I did ping mods for the first instance and it was sorted - my comments about a lack of speed then was frustration due to their being less than 6 mods at the time for a wide range of GFLs discords.
This second time, where i banned 4 raiders who were spamming nigger, faggot, and other offensive or annoying stuff in a VC and general chats was pre-emptive to halt it. I then immediately tagged mods explaining i banned 4 people for raiding and directed them to mod logs to administer the correct punishment.
The mods are active yes, and my concerns of numbers no longer exist - there's about 9 now in our Discord and of those 4 are heavily involved in the server and subsequently the Discord too, which is a massive benefit compared to the prior 6 with one active within the server.

I'm not sure what we did that was hostile but please enlighten me so I can attempt to fix it. But I do know that quite a few server staff were extremely hostile towards myself and my team for something that we had no vote in. If you didn't want the official mod team to come in you should have explained your reasoning better and convinced your fellow staff and your server managers.

A "Hostile Takeover" is not necessarily hostile; it's exact definition is a deliberate change of management without correct consultation of the companies' (in this case discord) members. We as users and staff felt much too rushed into this and had no say as to what we would keep, lose, or add to our permissions - which is where the framing of this as a hostile takeover came from, but in regards to poor communication and adressing not an actual exchange in discord managing.

Thanks for the response and the near immediate integration of the second suggestion. More replies to others will follow soon!

There's a local mute option through the tab menu, if you don't want to hear them use that.

Ups and downs... lefts and rights... good and bad... none of it would've been the same without you, mate.

Life comes first - and you're gonna need to dedicate that idea for the long term. Be it sooner or later, and for as much as we've all teased and slandered, if you need someone to talk to we'll all be back here waiting for you.
Stay safe man, and good luck; genuinely sad to see you have to go.

Honestly give up.

Over the course of the recent past you have been nothing but a toxic, unwanted shit who joins the server to take the piss out of people. Prior to your last ban where you made up 90% of an abuse report on me for it was the exact same, surely someone who can put the effort into fabricating a bunch of lies can use the brain power necessary to understand why you were banned? I guess not.
After seeing people talk in HnS staff chat, quite literally none of them want you back. In fact, some of them have the idea they gain more losing you than keeping you - so i'm pretty sure that speaks enough about this.

As for your apparent hate-boner for me, can you leave me the fuck alone and if mentioning me actually do some fucking research? It's not as if since i first got admin in 2018 i've banned less than 20 different people on HNS. 8 of which are unique permanent bans -  guess that's a "high number" - unless you're including repeat bans for people's alts, in which case it's only closer to 30. Not one of my ongoing bans have ever been false, especially for alts - there was only one instance where i accidentally perma-banned an innocent player, to rectify this instantly when nblock taunted me saying i banned the wrong account. 

For an added bonus, i actually vouched for your latest unban. Guess i was wrong to do that.

Thanks for the ban appeal.

As this was your first ban, and you weren't doing what you were maliciously, you will be unbanned.

Appeal Accepted.
 

Taking to you in Direct Messages previously has given the impression you do genuinely want to play on the server, as a result, this appeal is Accepted.

Please however keep in mind you now have 5 FailRP warns in total on the server, as well as 3 RDM warns. remember to behave and obey the server rules, thanks!

 

: (

 

I believe it's been long enough of a ban for you to be excused and let back in, and i'm trusting you that you will behave better in future.

Unbanned

What.
That's not what i was meaning lol, i just clarified that you could get out of the map in multiple places really easily. Not that it's a bad thing.
Also
What. The post posted halfway through this so le edit;
"not overly aggressive admins enforcing rules that don't even mAKE SENSE  excuse me.. " - sounds like you have another issue with something 🤔
"Also this has never stopped past managers from adding maps because they have VERY SLIGHT out of map spots." - I know, i was the manager for a while, and one or two parkour featuring maps were added by me

"Also consider updating the HnS Map list." - This i can do

You didn't even look it over, did you? There's no way to get out of the map at all. It's an official CS:GO map looked over by Valve with precisely placed clips, areaportals, hints and skips.

You probably didn't even load up the map, because as I stated above there is no way.

Ahem;

All of these were accomplished with under two crouch jumps excluding one, which was a click to break a window and then a normal jump.
You didn't look over the map, did you?

Soooo, let me get this right - You want unbanned after lying multiple time in the mentioned abuse report, repeatedly straw-manning what i've said in order to gain your preferred meaning for statements i've said (which you're still doing case and point ; "Then because I reported Harakoni he  perma banned me from GFL (his words)."), being a shitstain unable to comprehend when people are being asses or not when their message is calling me a retard repeatedly, pushing people on who are pissing off me and other staff in your private Blueberry Discord circlejerks, and that you think i banned you for asking a question? Did you even read the response to the report? - actually a better question, Are you alright?...

Denied.
Appeal in 6 months if you wish.

EASY

Die Hard
Die Hard 2 - Die Harder
Die Hard with a Vengeance (Don't lie to yourself you've heard the christmas jingle and jokes)

So apparently it is still my role to accept/deny this

Denied
For reasons stated above in responses, and due to the consensus of myself and several admins with the new server "manager" in agreement.
You can appeal whenever you feel suitable, but a personal and preferred recommendation would be after roughly a month has passed. Thanks.

I'm sorry but they've both been outclassed by the new icon of the generation 

Doctor Freeeeman...

I can't say y/n to an unban for obvious reasons but i can throw in a more thorough explanation of each ban reason.

1 - Trolling
I applied this to your ban reason for a couple reasons, mostly from watching you myself with some added bits from reportees/players/staff. You are known to push and edge rules to the extent where just before you'll get punished you will quickly stop. You've been known to egg on or encourage other players to rule break and act negatively towards staff, AND you have a history of pushing text spam warnings and spray warnings to the point of them almost being given but to then stop altogether. If i hand't taken the initiative of perma-spray banning you when i got the first bit of solid evidence after you'd avoided it for so long, you would have continued to probably this very day.

3 - Encouraging rule breaking
This has come from multiple people to me now, including 2Koreds who i will talk about below about how i was both wrong to believe CERTAIN things he said about you. I have been told that you encourage people to unstuck abuse, prop block and door spam when no staff are on. I do know you have encouraged unstuck abuse before, but i am unsure on the other two which was told to me with no evidence. I decided i was more likely to believe what people who had no warns/misunderstanding of rules after being told by people than someone with a known history of fucking around, and i carried the reasoning here.
 
4 - Consistent rule breaking when no staff are on
This in itself is actually wrong, one of the few aspects that are about the ban reason - 2Koreds did in fact lie to me about you also breaking rules when no staff were on. (afaik this aspect of the ban reason can be removed due to lack of evidence)
However, there are other aspects and reports of you negatively interacting with players that have come of this explained in point 5 -  

5 - Toxic attitude towards players
This was lumped onto the ban reason for your never ending stream of casual annoying and toxic comments towards people reported to me. You have a long history of being toxic to new players who don't know any better, other regular members in the spur of the moment or for a joke, and even some staff members. I have been told many times that you seek to troll and torment anyone who has wronged you, often following another hider to their spot and spamming taunt in order for them to be found, or stealing boxes and pushing people off of ledges when they do even the smallest amount of parkour. (The last two are usually allowed in moderation, but you do it non-stop)
