Improved forum moderation ('Shitposters under curfew')

[Granger]

I mean, after all, it seems like you want to discourage new people from posting. Not all posts have the ability to sit in a moderator's queue waiting for approval. Some are time sensitive in nature.

What kind of (3-5) first posts for an account are time sensitive?

I do not understand how you are making this suggesting and not immediately removed from moderation team.

Client Issues, since you know, first impressions do mean a lot. Not many people are willing to wait 12 hours before they can even get a chance for a response.
The many "Help, I'm being raided" posts that people tend to make. Hard to respond to these posts if the post does not appear.

Its a dynamic game, things happen that sometimes need immediate response or reactions. There are numerous issues that can arise.

And plus, as a new player, it does not feel good to have your posts not appearing. It discourages people. No one wants to watch conversations unfold, and not be allowed to take part into it. It'll just drive another wedge in community growth.

This idea is crazy given Granger is the only active moderator anyways. This is Haven not Granger Forum Simulator.

@Ysh/Burinn:
I do not understand you two still being here instead of being permabanned, given that your statements are 100% factually correct and anchored fully in what mankind agreed on as 'reality'. My guess is: you're both wrong with your posts.

Ok, I follow that argument.

These are usually not posting with an alt created 20 seconds ago, but with the account they play on.

The proposed mechanic is ment as an alternative to being banned - which, by definition, is the complete inability to post at all.

Please note that in my answer to Amanda I wrote it could (not should, will, or must) be removed from newly created accounts (like it would have been a good plan to temporary do on Have launch night).

I'm currently throwing ideas here to get feedback, thank you for your comment.
More please.

You must consider what solution is doable with your current ammount of manpower.
Permabanning is less work than sifting through the posts of the usual suspects.

What? Text doesn't carry sarcasm well if that's what it was supposed to be.

The fact you threat to permaban me for disagree to you is made my point already.

I think Granger is jesting with you two. If he did not want you here, you would not be here.

Unfortunate that this is also my point.

Granger is literal stereotypical forum moderator. Flex his muscle here to abuse power and feel good about his own self. This suggesting is just grab for more power he can abuse.
