Most people having trouble with this probably don't know what constructive means.

No critique allowed, no bad words, we all have to compliment the shits the upload MY UBER COOL 999999 DMG GENERATOR SWEP, for no reason. Or rename "comments" to "compliments".[/QUOTE] Welp, after everyone (including yourself) began trolling and such, proclaiming such idiocies as "I only insult shitty uploads" then I can see why such actions would be taken. Insulting one another is not the same as constructive criticism.
In the end this is like a VAC ban except it's with a website and instead of cheating it's being an ass. If you don't want to get banned because you troll a lot then don't post that comment.
[QUOTE=Cloudhunter;23172428] [b] CRITICISM IS ALLOWED IF IT IS CONSTRUCTIVE[/b] [/QUOTE] Well that big red text says to not say anything if you ain't got nothing nice to say. That means no criticism. Tons of people have been banned... even nice people.
[QUOTE=Flubadoo;23176693]Well that big red text says to not say anything if you ain't got nothing nice to say. That means no criticism. Tons of people have been banned... even nice people.[/QUOTE] You can criticize while being nice. "Good work, although I think you should work on x"
[QUOTE=Cheryl Cole;23088638]How can they actually ban your steam account anyway? Isn't the comment system by Disquis?[/QUOTE] They got your steam ID, and can ban you from Garry's mod.

[editline]04:50PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Jeroenz0r;23180120]They got your steam ID, and can ban you from Garry's mod.[/QUOTE] They can't. Only ban your steam account from posting or downloading from the site.
[QUOTE=rimlanin;23180472]They can't. Only ban your steam account from posting or downloading from the site.[/QUOTE] And facepunch. They could add your SteamID to the blacklist?
[QUOTE=Jeroenz0r;23180750]And facepunch. They could add your SteamID to the blacklist?[/QUOTE] Nope, your steamID is in no way linked to facepunch.
easy fix to the comments system, &b every shitty bg, "kil breen" save and furry related thing
Getting banned from garrysmod.org would be a hell for me. i'd feel like i gave garry that 10 bucks... for nothing.
[QUOTE=Str4fe;23185434]Getting banned from garrysmod.org would be a hell for me. i'd feel like i gave garry that 10 bucks... for nothing.[/QUOTE] you only get &b'd from comments area i think, it WOULD be an ass move if he banned from actual site
[QUOTE=Turki Azamat;23131183]Has anyone actually BEEN banned as a result of this? On another note, anyone who disagrees with me will have their Steam account banned permanently.[/QUOTE] I got banned for complaining about that disgusting porno map [editline]05:31AM[/editline] [QUOTE=MegaJohnny;23154076]Even if you're right, and half of all GMod.org users like to troll, that means the other half can offer tips, advice and other helpful posts. It's not like you have to take any part in the comments if you disagree with them. Saying they're pointless is pretty dim, to be blunt, but you're clearly not thinking it through if you say they serve no purpose. The purpose is to give feedback to the uploader, help him improve the design and to fix technical issues in the content. That's the point of comments, whether or not the comments are helpful in practice is irrelevant.[/QUOTE] Whats the point of a map with abunch of low quality cum shot porn pictures across it? Honestly? [editline]05:39AM[/editline] [QUOTE=Cloudhunter;23172428]It would be easier if people stopped being little babies about this. [b] CRITICISM IS ALLOWED IF IT IS CONSTRUCTIVE[/b].

Most people having trouble with this probably don't know what constructive means.[/QUOTE] "Look, I am really really sorry to be the one to tell you this but your kill breen save is no of the highest quality and infact does not even contain a breen player, npc, or ragdoll. Again, I am really really really sorry" That would actually get someone banned on garrysmod.org as is. I am NOT exaggerating and I am NOT lying. Post that on a kill breen save that is on the front page and you WILL be banned (unless of course you speak to garry before hand wanting to try and disprove me. In that case you would be the troll) [editline]05:42AM[/editline] [QUOTE=Cloudhunter;23178181]You can criticize while being nice.

Oh look, I suddenly demonized you. that is no longer a nice comment and therefore you get banned
You know what i have learned, Don't even bother commenting at all, It's not worth getting banned over.
[QUOTE=Col shepard;23196799]YOU JACKASS! X was my life's work, I'm going to go commit suicide for this. I hope you get banned... Oh look, I suddenly demonized you. that is no longer a nice comment and therefore you get banned[/QUOTE] That's essentially what I'm saying- one at all negative, critical or constructive comment can be taken as something entirely different and extremely personally, and I think it might be able to get one banned. As for the trolling , now that I think about it, there's some shit on Garrysmod.org that [i]needs[/i] to be trolled.
[QUOTE=Regan SMASH;23185571]you only get &b'd from comments area i think, it WOULD be an ass move if he banned from actual site[/QUOTE] nope, they can ban you from downloading. that really freaks me out.
[QUOTE=Str4fe;23198232]nope, they can ban you from downloading. that really freaks me out.[/QUOTE] Well obviously garry hasn't gone that far yet cause i can still download. garry clearly hates me (probably because i compared him to my phyco cheating ex gf personally)
[QUOTE=Str4fe;23198232]nope, they can ban you from downloading. that really freaks me out.[/QUOTE] They ban you from downloading if you upload "teh pr0n."
Why is this an issue? You just have to make a polite suggestion for improvement instead of screaming "[highlight]IT SUCKS![/highlight]" at the top of your lungs every time you see something you don't like. It's not that hard.

I think banning steam account from garrysmod.org is a bit nasty, i retived from commenting

[QUOTE=VenomousBeetle;23201103]12 bucks says warren is 12. :clint: [editline]08:29AM[/editline] Yes most of them very Full of injustice.[/QUOTE] Only 12? I bet a thousand is 12 or under. Or else he would not be so butthurt. "This fucking sucks, seriously what sort of retard puts hoverballs on a bed frame and uploads it?" Means the same thing is "Look, this is not really good, don't take offense but you should put more effort into it." Only that the kid that uploaded it will take the first one more seriously as adding swearing and such actually helps the comment go trough the dumb brain of the author, while the second will probably be ignored. People should understand this.

[QUOTE=Regan SMASH;23201877]brb uploading shitty broken adv dupes and watching people rage at not being able to say anything mean :D[/QUOTE] You know what, I usually try and be nice and err on the side of caution, but in this post I'm not going to bother because I'm fed up of seeing the same old comments from people who seem to think that being nasty is a GOOD thing and a necessity. If people were courteous, this rule wouldn't be needed in the first place. Frankly, if you don't like the comment rules then just don't post. The comment system has only been in place 6 months, and I don't think a rule which asks people to be nice is a particulary bad rule. It tells people to do which they should be fucking doing in the first place instead of comments such as "this fucking sucks". Any sensible reasonable person knows that this is a GOOD thing. I personally believe a permanent ban is too strong, but if it forces people to be nice then so be it. Now stop being fucking whiny babies and deal with it, because we all know complaining won't help at all. I hope this change stays. And yes, I am well aware of the irony that this comment isn't particulary nice.
Who cares? They aren't asking for your opinion.

You just have to make a polite suggestion for improvement instead of screaming "[highlight]IT SUCKS![/highlight]" at the top of your lungs every time you see something you don't like. It's not that hard.[/QUOTE] It consoles little children with praise about a Kill Breen save, and kids don't take constructive criticism very well, so they ignore it. In turn, the delightful remarks about the beautiful Kill Breen save with 500 combine elites incites the creator to make a megaton of Kill Breen saves and kill breen backgrounds that no one will like. This is the reason the awesome people of Gmod are fading away.
[QUOTE=Regan SMASH;23201877]brb uploading shitty broken adv dupes and watching people rage at not being able to say anything mean :D[/QUOTE] We won't be waiting for you. Or your shitty grammar.
[QUOTE=infern0;23202964]Who cares? They aren't asking for your opinion.[/QUOTE] Luckily my opinion is free. People don't seem to realize that you can say anything constructively, even if you think it is complete shit. E.g. Recommending that they move onto something else other than Kill Breen saves, which is better than "lol omg kill breen sux lol go die". You don't have to praise work in order to give constructive criticism. For an experiment, I am going to comment on such things such as Kill Breen saves politely, and I'll see if I get banned.

It's not that hard.[/QUOTE] There's nothing polite to say about a bunch of enemy NPCs spawned surrounding Dr. Breen, a background featuring a furry character, or a jeep with hoverballs attached. Maybe they should make it so you can turn off comments for uploads- then again that's denying anyone to speak out against the [i]legitimate[/i] crap, but I guess it might work.
