Suggestion:

It appears that some people are not smart enough to enact self preservation, and as a community we shouldn't promote that. I've seen more than a few people now post pictures or videos of them in QSP while they are driving, sometimes going excessively fast down the road too. A lot of our members are young and have impressionable minds, and we shouldn't be promoting this behavior, or allowing people to partake in it. I think in order to discourage this behavior, this infraction should fall under rule 2, with rule 2 modified to include NSFL content, which includes dangerous life threatening activities.

Notes: Some people never learn, and we unfortunately cannot change that. However we should try to avoid people's bad behavior from rubbing off on others. Some people may call me silly, but I think it's a very serious thing if people are putting their own and others lives at risk just to try and get a couple of people on the internet to think they're cool.

Another note: "Report this activity to QSOC bruh" listen I would but there's nothing to prohibit it. All I'm going to get is just an answer saying "sorry they're not breaking any rules, can't do anything shrug". It's really not possible to report something to QSOC if they're not violating any specific rule.

#general message

humble veldt
#

i believe im innocent i only take photos of me while stopped

south drum
#

on fucking god you are not RISKING YOUR LIFE to chat on DISCORD

humble veldt
#

in a drive thru

south drum
humble veldt
#

oh schwabbo

gentle lagoon
humble veldt
#

shes like 23 i think and consistently drives offroad

gentle lagoon
#

plus in my mind we shouldn't make any exceptions because that just encourages people to do it

#
  • that's not the only example I've seen, but idk where the others are
south drum
#

i think it's fine if they're actively paying attention to the road in a controlled environment or stopped

gentle lagoon
#

I mean if they're stopped

terse beacon
gentle lagoon
#

that's one thing

#

but

humble veldt
#

i am guilty of recording while driving but i didnt post in qsp

gentle lagoon
#

well you didn't post it in qsp so I can't say anything here

humble veldt
#

or anywhere actually

#

but yea i get the concern, youngins see that and think its ok to drive fast and one handed while looking at a phone and might recreate it

gentle lagoon
#

yep

humble veldt
#

we already have enough idiots on the road

#

we dont need new drivers to be them

#

itd be interesting to moderate since it doesnt happen often, and i think exbo would like to not add new rules constantly so itd be interesting to see what rule it could be added under

gentle lagoon
#

yeah openingqsp

young tide
#

it's like

#

not that bad

#

because it's a clear "road" but

#

still

#

GET OFF YOUR PHONE

#

NSFL can be seen as NSFW on its own

#

also

#
  1. No NSFW content or behavior:
    You cannot send or link to any obscene content. This includes any type of media or post depicting people/characters in a suggestive and/or obscene manner, as well as NSFW profiles (whether it's your status, about me, profile picture, or anything else), even if it is cropped.
#

the video itself isnt bad, they are on an open road in the middle of nowhere

#

worst case scenario its a skid

terse beacon
#

so I dont see a point to this

young tide
#

what is nsfl

#

also bulldog didn't mean that example in particular

#

"...post pictures or videos of them in QSP while they are driving, sometimes going excessively fast down the road too."

#

i assume when he says this he also means highways since ive seen that happen here but i thought it was only a one off thing

grizzled apex
#

This opens entire new questions

young tide
#

it would be fine if people had like a dedicated camera or dashcam in their car to post videos

grizzled apex
#

For example

young tide
#

but from the looks of it people are using their phones

grizzled apex
#

How would you know they are in a car without them telling you

#

The only way you could know is if they told you

young tide
grizzled apex
#

Like how would you know via text someone is driving

grizzled apex
#

The only way I can see evidence being gotten for this is video recordings and audio recording

grizzled apex
# young tide OH

Like imagine if people started getting banned because someone thought "They have to be driving rn because they are talking about something that happened on te road"

young tide
#

well if someone posts a picture of them driving and they just so happened to be talking in qsp wouldn't you ask them that
like "are you driving right now"
obviously you would ask them if that's a video from earlier because it could be

grizzled apex
#

Someone can just assume they were in the vehicle

#

Making a entire QSP suggestion based off of one occurance I can only find happening once or twice in the span of months

cerulean sandal
#

this feels like an oddly specific occurence

grizzled apex
#

Its too oddly specific like

cerulean sandal
#

like adding this to rule 2 would imply that this is a frequent issue that is constantly getting enforced

grizzled apex
#

Plus I doubt people value QSP more than life, this is quite litteraly a useless rule

young tide
#

also with context clues you can determine if they're driving or not

young tide
#

it's not frequent but it's happened multiple times

#

and if ive noticed it considering my inactivity that should say something

grizzled apex
# young tide

It was last night. This entire suggestion was made because bulldog didnt read up

#

So quite liiteraly

young tide
merry herald
#

useless

cerulean sandal
#

i dont even see how we can even moderate this

merry herald
#

exactly

grizzled apex
#

the suggestion is useless, plus imagine what people will think joining a discord server and seeing "Dont text and drive" LIKE???

merry herald
#

we aren't the police dude this is discord

grizzled apex
#

Its basic common sense to not text and drive

young tide
grizzled apex
young tide
#

your also forgetting that somehow alot of people in this discord don't have common sense unfortunately

grizzled apex
cerulean sandal
#

aside from texting and driving, the title of the suggestion also states "Life Threatening Activities"
what does that fall under

grizzled apex
merry herald
young tide
merry herald
#

like i stated we aren't the police

young tide
#

just my thoughts

young tide
grizzled apex
#

You just wanted to report someone for literally, no reason

grizzled apex
#

The rule idea is pretty much useless

#

It dosent help the community

#

and it bans and warns people based on wording

young tide
#

that's not what the suggestion is going for
it's going for texting on qsp and driving
not posting a picture from earlier that was taken for a brief moment

grizzled apex
#

Which if I read it write, is what the suggestion is about

young tide
#

ok but why would moderator action be taken if there was no proof of someone driving and texting in the first place

#

that's stupid

#

assuming this was implemented obviously it would be towards the people who are very obviously driving and texting on qsp

grizzled apex
#

nvm

young tide
#

not people who are just
posting a photo or video they took earlier 💀

grizzled apex
#

Realized I read it wrong

#

😭

terse beacon
#

Hold on, this suggestion was made because he was worried for the person driving. Yeah it’s on an open road and yeah this doesn’t really have to be a rule. Considering it’s rule of thumb

young tide
terse beacon
#

However do not call out people like that regarding rank

#

we are also human our ranks dont change that

young tide
#

yes your not the police

#

but let's say someone was texting and driving in qsp

#

and they confirmed they were/it's very obvious they were since it's happened before

#

wouldnt it make sense for them to get for example warned for driving and texting since it would deter them

no shit it's common sense but welcome to this server where people don't have that in many areas

terse beacon
#

chat it’s not our job to deal with that

#

the police does

#

some teens on discord cant control how someone drives

#

it’s not like us telling someone off about it is gonna change their ways immediately

#

they’re probably just gonna not post it in qsp and still do it

#

we’re not adding psa’s either for “dont text and drive”

#

why would that be our job??

#

QSOC moderates for a Lego game and a discord server

#

like yeah sure I understand the concern here but what can we do about it?

young tide
#

like i said a simple warning would deter them off would it not

#

if for some unholy reason I was i think it would for me

#

not like I would though because i have common sense unlike half of this servers population

terse beacon
merry herald
#

and on top of that it would be a pain in the ass to moderate NOR is it our responsibility to correct people doing the wrong thing whilst driving.

gentle lagoon
#

It's not about stopping them from texting and driving, it's about not letting other people be encouraged by them doing it

#

Also it's not a pain to moderate, if someone posts a picture of themselves driving, then that's an infraction

If there's no way to know if they're in the car or not cause they're text only, then they don't get moderated, simple as that

gentle lagoon
#

Your job is to remove content from the server that is dangerous and inappropriate

terse beacon
#

if someone finds it neat to text and drive? then they can go study on how it’s illegal when they get a drivers

shut stump

drink and drive instead of texting and drive

My point here is

Would you allow a video of someone doing something wickedly dangerous, like say, lighting a large explosive and running?

No, you wouldn't, cause that's dangerous and we don't want to encourage that behavior

Texting and driving is just as dangerous, and the same thing applies with the other example, if they find it neat, then they can fuck around and find out. But we wouldn't let them post that in our server. Therefore we should not be allowing depictions of texting and driving, because it's just as dangerous and just like my example puts themselves and others in danger.

#

Texting and driving is the #1 killer of teens in America and many other places across the world, we shouldn't be promoting it

#

It's more dangerous than people think

shut stump
#

You can't really enforce it if no one knows

#

How'd you enforce something you can't see

#

No way people are that dumb 😭

#

We can't really moderate for things people do outside of QS

#

If they do this then damn they're a dumbass but it's way out of our control

#

Same reason as to why we couldn't ban "drinking" in qsp

#

That's also dangerous but it's something way out of out control

#

Local laws already exists to protect people from this

brave wasp
#

It doesn't need a rule change, as this is already covered by the Discord ToS, since it's normally against to law to use your phone while driving, let alone driving faster than the speed limit. Additionally, this is very much outside of our control and other than giving them warnings and deleting the content, we can't do much about this.

austere nacelle
#

Yeah that

gentle lagoon
#

Okay well can we at least just delete videos that depict dangerous behavior

#

That's literally the only problem I have

#

We can't stop people from doing what they do outside of QS, I have already acknowledged that

gentle lagoon
#

I'm confused by what point you're trying to make from that screenshot, as that's part of my suggestion

austere nacelle
#

"Deleting the contents"

gentle lagoon
#

But as long as we aren't encouraging others to do similar behavior I'm fine

austere nacelle
#

So yes we'll delete messages if they encourage people to break laws

gentle lagoon
#

Yes that's all I want really

#

So we're all set here I guess

austere nacelle
#

@gentle lagoon fyi if they simply post a video of texting and driving or speeding we can't do much since it can be in a controlled enviroment but if they encurage people to break laws then ofc they shall be nuked

I just felt like the concern was being blatantly disregarded before
