Koos iirc you buried a comment about ramping probations in one of your longer posts, something about a ramp cap? I think that's a bad idea, there should be no cap on ramps. Unless you intend to suddenly jump to a forum ban or something. Otherwise you're just giving 3 day probes to the same people over and over with no real resolution.

Main Paineframe posted:

on the subject of ramping, i think there's a currently ongoing example of someone who just keeps getting short probes over and over for doing the same poo poo constantly, despite the fact that the short probes and mild rapsheet scoldings clearly aren't working

i'm going to redact their username, but this user has a very distinctive rapsheet so I don't think it'll be hard for anyone to figure out who they are



i'm not saying they should get ban+monthed or something, but this does not look like someone who is being dissuaded by dayprobes

but this sort of thing happens a lot in D&D, where someone can reliably get 1-2 probes every week and it just never really escalates from there. i'm bringing this particular user up as a topical example, not to single them out specifically

The fact that the act is named after the poster suggests the mods have attributed an endearing quality to this gimmick, which is probably why they won't ramp.
