Adipsycho - Formal warning issued

[zcul]

Adipsycho has received a formal warning. This user has now received 1 formal warnings. The warning was given for the following reason:

 

Vigilantism, publicly accusing a mod author (providing a translation service) of mod theft instead of using the report feature.
Harassing the mod author via pm accusing them of mod theft instead of using the report feature and offensive remarks towards the mod author.
Reporting on the mod author accusing them of mod theft without providing substantial or any evidence.

PM reported 19 April 2018, 06:20 PM:

„Blocking me and deleting all the comments really??.. do you actually think i care i am not even the same language as you i just don't like seeing people's work being stolen or misused.., i am indeed reporting you to the site owners so don't be shocked if your mod is removed then maybe in the future you would get actual permission

And do not worry, i took a screenshot of the Original information (the description page) before you changed it and i have sent that to Panda (aka Jeannie) she may have your mod/translation removed if the site owners haven't done it already.

Do not bother trying to contact me i am blocking you so Good day thief and liar!“

Accusations towards the mod author so far have turned out as being unfounded and unreasonable as their translation service complies with the according rule of the Terms and Policies.


Terms and Policies (excerpt):

General rules
Through your use of Nexus Mods you agree that you will not post any content which is false, defamatory, inaccurate, …

Commenting and forum posting rules
Do not be a vigilante
Being a vigilante means performing a moderator's job or impersonating a moderator by telling someone they have done something wrong or against the rules. There is a "Report" button underneath each and every post on these forums -- if you believe someone has broken the rules please use this feature and a moderator will be there to sort it out pretty quickly. It is not your job to tell others what they can and cannot do on these forums.

File and image database commenting and endorsements
If you believe the content of the file breaches the Nexus terms and conditions then please report the file for moderator viewing and move on, do not take matters into your own hands.

If your comment contains text that is likely to personally offend other users of the site either in the language you use or the message of your text then do not post. We take personal attacks very seriously and you will be banned without warning.

This site has extremely dedicated moderating staff who have full authority to edit and delete posts as well as ban accounts instantly and without warning. However the moderating staff cannot possibly read and keep up-to-date with every single comment, rating and file posted on the site. It is up to you, the users of this site, to help keep this site clear of the people who just want to ruin it for everybody by reporting violations of these conditions to the moderators, either through the provided reporting features on the site or via forum PM to the moderating staff. (See How to report content (comments, mods, etc.) that violates the Terms of Service below.)

How to report content (comments, files, etc.) that violates the Terms of Service
While in general reports from users are welcome, there are a few simple rules to follow when you use the Report form.
• Be as specific as you can. If you submit vague reports (e.g. I believe this armor is ripped content, Stolen file) then you are wasting the staffs time, and your report will be ignored. It is best that you back up your report with evidence (links, etc.). …

Finally, do not take matters into your own hands. Even if you are personally affected, do not respond to offensive comments.

Uploading files and images
If you are providing a translation service for a mod in another language then you cannot upload any of the content from the file you are translating (this avoids issues with your version being out-of-date with the original authors file). Your translation should be a stand-alone addition that works in conjunction with the original file and you should link to the original file as a mirror or in your file description. If you cannot translate a file without including the original files content then do not upload it at all.
