Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
Numbered Posted December 15, 2017 Posted December 15, 2017 Let's explain some situation: BadUser posts some bad posts Moderator1 see extremely bad post and give a warning with a posting restriction - 30 days Next, Moderator2 see old other bad post and give a second warning with a less posting restriction - 1 hour What we see after that? We see 1 day posting restriction and 30 days is gone away. In restriction list we see first and see date, when it's given and see time period for deactivate - 29 days. But in profile we have not see any restrictions - because it was rewrited by new one. I think it's not right logic. Any new posting restriction should check current restriction and if more than new one - NOT redefine it. Or (which is good too) - adding new time to the current time. Other case: Give a warning with just 1 point, which will end on the next day. No restrictions In the same day give a second warning with 0/any points and posting restriction 30 days On the next day 1 points go to inactive state and... remove posting restriction from second warning! Extremely strange. In both cases we have not any auto actions/sanctions by points (nothing). Checked on the clean IPS test installation in the versions 4.1.19.4, 4.2.6 and 4.2.7.beta3 - same on the all
Joel R Posted December 15, 2017 Posted December 15, 2017 That's funny. If I were a bad user (and most users kind of know when they're going to be bad), then you might as well be bad ALL the time in the hopes a moderator will override the existing punishment with an easier punishment. Like, all of your posts should be bad because a lifetime ban might be reset with a one hour ban, so you can log back in and be bad some more.
