I'm afraid I made GBAtemp lose a member

I think WiiBricker is right.

Private Messages need to stay private. These things are only for the forum staff not for us.

Satangel, you can make a blog article of this but your not supposed to copy private messages directly from you messenger. Try not to repeat this kind of things. Just make a rant topic and don´t post yar shit to normal members.

Maybe. But if you send someone a private message, you accepting the risk that person you send it to may want to publish it to everyone.

But yeah Satangel has more then 6000 posts and is nearly 4 years active on this forum; yeah it still can happen but this is a bit unexpected.

But in respect and privacy of the other member your not supposed to post their messages. That needs to be a rule/guideline or whatever.

Yes we should respect other people's privacy but if someone is being disrespectful to you, do they deserve the respect back?

Then your supposed to contact the staff not the whole forums

I don't see any reason not to do both.

I don´t see reason for the forums. The staff is to solve a problem with another member. Not everyone else XD even quest can read this...

There is no problem, though. He left, and that's it.

He says he has left. He comes back. Hello problem!

Could happen but still I stand my point.

 

[Frederica Bernkastel]

I agree with his point, about BF3 > MW3, but that's pretty much all of his post that I could understand.

You shouldn't feel at fault in any way, ragequitting is just a childish way at lashing out in an argument they know they cannot win.

 

[nryn99]

best way is Satangel should respect PMs more. though if i had a pm like that i'd show it to some people IRL. not too much people will know but still i'd want to show it to some.
and that ripandsnip should not make a pm like that again.

what's done is done, all that's left is to learn from mistakes and move on. getting caught in the blaming period won't get you anywhere.

In the future it may be better that the username is omitted then. That way what's-his-face keeps his privacy and thingymajiggy gets to create a thread on the subject. (sorry i forgot the names and too lazy to check)

 

[Sterling]

I don't get what all this fuss is about. As the saying goes, you have to give respect in order to receive respect. Ripandsip didn't give, so ho should not receive. If there is a problem with this, user name omission is the best way to fix it. Besides, a username isn't your real name (unless it's mine).

EDIT: Lol pretty much copied and pasted machomuu's post. Damn your ninja-ing

The person who was disrespectful in the first place is the OP, not the one that left.

Besides, here is the rule that prohibits you from making private messages public:

QUOTE

Do not post someone's personal information without the proper consent. This includes personal photos, names, addresses, phone numbers, E-mail, instant messenger handles, conversation logs, etc. If the person requests that you remove the subject matter you must comply or else the staff members will intervene.

Yes, PNs are personal information.

He didn't tell Satangel to remove it, though.

Wrong. PNs meant to be private. I now a lot of forums on which someone gets banned if he publishes private messages. Your argument is flawed. Because no one has requested the information to be removed, doesnt make this "legal" . A violation against the rules remains a violation.

No moderator has requested the information to be removed or edited, meaning no personal information was disclosed. If you feel differently then make a request to a moderator.

You didn't get it. It's not about moderators or requests for removing the informations here. It's about the precept. A violation of the rules has happend, period.

Hey, it isn't your call anyway. I don't see any personal info in the P.M. body, only mildly offensive flaming. No if it were something like a mailing address, or personal reasoning behind his anger (like childhood anger at his family), then yes. At the moment though, I don't see any violation of the GBAtemp rules.

 

[machomuu]

Actually you haven't proven that private info was disclosed yet.

 

[Paarish]

And the people who enforce those rules didn't... well... enforce them. A couple of moderators have passed by this thread, and a former staff. They didn't edit or add any posts to remove information or lock this thread. If moderators feel that any rules have been broken, they would do something about it. They wouldn't sit on their asses and twiddle their thumbs while rules are being broken. Otherwise they wouldn't be good mods. If any person thinks rules HAVE been broken then I'm sure the moderator would listen to their appeal.

Dont worry, I'll help you out there. Just open the spoiler in this post. There you can see a PM (= private message), that has been made public without the permission of the person who wrote it.

If you're not going to take this seriously, you might as well forfeit your argument.
