I mean if a mod feels there's a clear enough reason (and at the moment I'm sticking to low hanging flags) or a staffy person goes 'dang let's fix this'...
I don't want to force the status flags because I cannot be always 100% sure either, and sometimes it needs more discussion. That's why I chose not to flag and instead just put all the triaged bug reports/FRs into 1 convenient chat room to check
@JourneymanGeek wondering why user was suspended for 32 days, and not the standard month? Not that I care in this case or that it matters, just thought there is a simple "one month" option, instead of manually typing amount of days. (hours??)
@ShadowWizard February is a 28-day month this year.
So a 30-day suspension imposed in February would end in March + 2 days.
@JourneymanGeek It is 30 days.
Also, general opinion: moderators shouldn't specify the reason "rule violations" unless they can point to a specific rule that the user violated. Otherwise, they should use a different reason, e.g. "to cool down".
I understand that there are various causes where a user would need to be suspended, for which there is no specific rule that can be pointed to. E.g. this. But that's why the "cool down" reason exists.
@ShadowWizard The word "cool down" on its own doesn't imply that. And if the canned message implies it, it's extremely easy to press Ctrl+A and Delete and compose your own message.
@ShadowWizard We as non-mods don't know if that's the reason. So let's stick to talking about the public case I linked.
Wait, I found a newer post that says the public suspension reason is based on the reason that the moderator chooses for the canned template for the moderator message. Is that right?
@JourneymanGeek No need to publicly assert that the user violated a rule if the user is being suspended just to stop them from doing something. Results in confusion, e.g. here.
The "public case" in question was a user who was suspended 3 days for mass-unaccepting answers. The user in question brought it up publicly on their own.
There's no specific rule against mass-unaccepting answers, but it's disruptive enough to warrant suspension. The user said in their question, "I don't understand which rule I violated"
Specifying the suspension reason as "rule violations" resulted in the user creating a public spectacle of themselves. If the reason had been specified as "to cool down" it's likely it wouldn't have happened.
@SonictheIntrovertedHedgehog I know you feel you know better but maybe you should actually consider that most folks who're mods kinda have been here a while. And most of the time people don't read into suspensions
You don't know what was said between the mods and users either
I understand that there are various causes where a user would need to be suspended, for which there is no specific rule that can be pointed to. E.g. this. But that's why the "cool down" reason exists.
@JourneymanGeek That would be a rules violation. There is an explicit rule that says one should listen to moderators and not repeat the same behavior for which you were suspended. But the first time, it should be "cool down".
Please don't try to micromanage how we do things. While we have a certain level of accountability to the users... If you want to back seat moderate... It's going to get frustrating for all involved
@Tinkeringbell my 2 years baby girl love to clean things up even without being asked. Problem is, she cleans too much and for example we find clean clothes in the laundry bin. :D
The Spring Framework is an application framework and inversion of control container for the Java platform. The framework's core features can be used by any Java application, but there are extensions for building web applications on top of the Java EE (Enterprise Edition) platform. Although the framework does not impose any specific programming model, it has become popular in the Java community as an addition to, or even replacement for the Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) model. The Spring Framework is open source.
