What is the bug: CDGS Forums "Show unread posts since last visit." Not working on computer, but it does work on my iPhone. Nothing is shown when I click it on my computer, but there is 2 pages of unread topics when I check it on my phone.
Where is this bug located: CDGS Forums (Computer)
How can we recreate it: I don't really know. And I don't know if its just on my account, or on everyones. It might be a bug with my recent forums temp ban, being that CDGS isn't fully recognizing that I'm not banned anymore, and won't show me all of the stuff thats unread. Also, it will show recent replies to my posts when I click that one. And when I try to just go to the CDGS homepage and click on each section that is marked Blue, to see if there are any unread posts in that section. Also whenever I try to keep using the homepage, It will only work once, and then all of them are just marked Black. I Don't know much else about this, but please look into it. And I think this bulk was supposed to go in the first section of the Bug Reports format

This thread will teach you what a chat offense is, how to call them, and what qualifies as a chat offense. The original thread that tried to explain this can be found here
This guide will help expand on that to help Moderators and A-Guards and above better understand this.

  This should go without saying but I'll say it anyways, variances of these words also count as chat offenses. So if someone says "Holy sh!t, the parkour is hard" it would still count. Same if someone says "Omg, you little f***er!"

  Disrespect towards staff:
  This is when a player shows disrespect towards a staff member. This does not include things like "omg wow, summon! why???" Something that would be considered disrespect would be like "wow summon, you are a really sucky guard that doesn't do shit" (that would also be called for swearing).
  

  ---

  Advertising:
  This is not something that you would call a chat offense on.
  This is self explanatory, but there are some specifics to this rule. Some things that don't count as advertising are things like someone telling everyone to check out a video on YouTube. Something that would count would be if someone says "Hey guys! go to <server IP>, it is soooo much better than this server!"
  The penalty for advertising is a permanent ban.
  Non permitted links in chat can be considered advertising and can be punished with a chat offense.

  Racism:
  This is not something that you would call a chat offense on.
  Players that show racism of any kind get an instant one (1) day ban.
  Things that are considered racist:
  [spoiler=WARNING THIS CONTAINS RACIST THINGS]
       
  • The "N word"
    
  • Cracker
    
  • Chinky Eyes
    
  • Anything else that is obviously a derogatory statement against a certain (or multiple) race, colour, ethnicity, etc.

  Hopefully this guide helped the staff and players know a bit more about chat offenses.

Why Should We Pick You To Be Our Next Moderator? I'm active, I don't abuse, i'm friendly to all players, I respect all staff, I'm a decently fast typist, I know all the commands, I try to help out the new players as much as I can when they need it. I know all the rules, I have a lot of experience on the server, I welcome new players to the server, I'd like to help the guards by muting people using too much capital letters and swearing while they're dealing with riots. I'd like to keep the chat clean and enforce the rules. When spring break comes I'll try to spend as much time as I can on the server moderating I'd like to see what it's like being a mod and maybe warden some day.
Additional Information: Hope you liked it thanks for reading I hope i get picked for mod

Abuser?s IGN: summonhalo
Abuser?s rank: Sr-Guard
What the abuser was doing: Not calling chat offense for caps on er3853, then continuing to say it's not an offense. This also happened again about 30 minutes later with Gunslinger
When this happened: 4/24/14, 6:49PM EST.
Proof:



 


Additional info: The following is quoted from the mod rules, "Using too many caps in a message (3 capitals in unison) = 2 strikes". Also, every time another mod/A-Guard or above is online, they call chat offense for saying "LOL", so if you're going to tell me the rules have changed, then please change them under the mod rules so there is no more confusion. Many people find it very annoying when players type in caps which is why it's one of MCP's rules.

This reminded me of this suggestion. There should be a list or something of words that A-Guards/Mods should call chat offenses for. This list should have examples of things that are and aren't things that get chat offenses. I know that there is already a list of general chat offenses, but I think that there should be a more in-depth list for specific things.

I am willing to make this for you guys and make it look all fancy.

What the abuser was doing: Calling sex as a chat offence.
When this happened: (Include date and timezone): 6:32 Arizona Time
Proof: (insert an image or video here):
Additional info: He shouldn't be demoted, but instead he should be taught a lesson of how to call things.

I recently got guard again and just remembered something really annoying about guard food. The food you spawn with and the food you get from /kit food is different so it does not stack. Right now the first thing I do when I respawn is throw the spawn food on the ground and do /kit food.
I suggest making guards spawn with the same food from /kit food.
