All The Tropes:How We Do Bans Around Here: Difference between revisions

It is common for the Moderator to also request that the Troper respond and acknowledge receipt of the warning. In such a case, such a response is to be in the form of a reply within the thread where the warning was given, where everyone can see it, in which the Troper is to note that they have read the warning. andThe reply should also include either a statement that the Troper will try to comply with requests made by the Moderator, or a clear statement as to why the Moderator made a mistake in issuing the warning. Deliberately ambiguous responses and [[Weasel Words]] will ''not'' be accepted as an acknowledgment - instead, this is seen as ''prima facie'' evidence that the editor intends to be a disruptive element on the wiki in violation of [[All The Tropes:The Troper's Code|the Troper's Code]] and is grounds for an immediate tempban. Nor is the use of the wiki's "thank" function considered an acknowledgment (because a "thank" is not seen by all Moderators) -- you must respond in words and sentences in a proper reply in the thread.
