What about a forum where those who have done something wrong on the site are sent either to be named and shamed or to complete a detention thing. For example, if someone has been caught swearing they are named there and wil only have their name taken off once they have created a no swearing poster?

I like this idea, its very creative, only one problem =[
not many people do wrong about here, but still think its a good idea,
should be fun to see up and going

Personally, I think it's useless, since the mods don't always see us using the C-word, for example :D And when they do, it's just more of a reminder like "Language Detention hall/hall of shame 436937

" which seems to work as well. I don't think anyone has really cursed badly, like used the F-word or anything... so mwehh.

I don't really like this idea. Whilst I agree Halls of shame work on some sites (like Mugglenet), we don't really get that many people breaking the rules and when we do it's better to deal with it 'behind the scenes' so to speak.

Subject: Re: Detention hall/hall of shame Tue Apr 22 2008, 09:06

I put no because I really wouldn't like to be put in there and I'm sure not many people would like it.

I agree with Polly here. I don't think it's nice to publicly humilate members of the HE, no matter what they did. If their breaking the rules, I'm sure Elfie, Amy and the rest knows how to deal with that way better than openly announcing them. I think that once a person would be named in there, they would like it way less to come to the HE, or at least that's how it would be for me...

...I agree. It would NOT be fun.

But, if we had a detention hall just for the fun of it - for random tasks that Sharon or Amy choose to give people - then that would be fun. xD

Subject: Re: Detention hall/hall of shame Tue Apr 22 2008, 11:52

Yeah it would be fun if it was random tasks and what not - but not a slam or shame board.

I agree with Gemma, if I were put up there for something I did on accident or didn't know it was wrong, it would make me far less likely to continue to be an active member of the site. Plus I think Amy-Elfie and everyone on the staff does an excellent job at handling issues

Subject: Re: Detention hall/hall of shame Tue Apr 22 2008, 13:17

I don't like it because it would be embarressing for people who do break the rules and would just have them end - up not coming to HE anymore.

Subject: Re: Detention hall/hall of shame Tue Apr 22 2008, 13:19

Oooh, having a fun detention hall sounds really great :D I think that tasks randomly given out are highly interesting, and this makes the whole detention hall thingy entirely different than what it was intended to be (which seems good to me).

Subject: Re: Detention hall/hall of shame Tue Apr 22 2008, 14:22

Thank you for the suggestion but I agree with what everyone else has said with the fact that a serious name and shame forum wouldnt be good conduct of HE. I prefer to deal with problems out of the eye of the general public for many reasons.

As for a fun detention hall, this could be possible though the idea would need to be worked on

Subject: Re: Detention hall/hall of shame Fri Apr 25 2008, 16:49

Yeah. I like the fun one though.

I don't like the shame because this is a small site, and if you make one mistake you don't want everyone hating you. The detention might be enjoyable to rule breakers, so i disagree with that too.

Im closing this topic now. The fun detention hall is being considered but not the main idea Im afraid.
