For those of you that don't learn...

I had never seen a moderator act so hostilely towards a member with 4000+ posts [gh0st]. Times change I guess.

If that's not sarcasm...

Postcount means nothing...Hell I was banned once last year (for 3 days) and I had around 4,000 post I think.

I saw someone with 6000+ posts get banned recently *COUGH*foxtrot*COUGH*

 

[gh0st]

Right...

at least mine was hilarious. i'm obviously joking where you are blatantly calling people morons and stupid and for what? there's far worse spam everywhere in this forum, maybe its best that you focus your "arbiter" powers on real problems instead of trying to censor something that is just going to pop up over and over again if you dont let us poor poor peons discuss stuff.

 

[OCybrManO]

Right...

Now, I wasn't involved in any of the Hetairia crap (because I couldn't care less about what some people here do in their free time)... but, IIRC, that quoted section was from a series of humorously exaggerated posts.

 

[Dgenatron]

Well I was the first to reply to the thread and then he goes and says all of you are guilty that is really messed up, don't appreciate it.

You just got lucky. 4 of us replied at almost the same time!

 

[RakuraiTenjin]

Wait so Foxtrot was banned because he recently made some comedic posts on that thing I found in my screenshot? For permanently or just like a month?

 

[DarkStar]

Sorry? Does postcount = respect then?

Hell yes! Didn't you get the memo?

Oh jeez. I just noticed you're about to pass my postcount Pi!

Oh wait.....people already respect you more than they do me. *sigh*

Must. Start. Spamming. Mercilessly.

EDIT: Seriously though dude what is this thread about?

Permanently.

 

[SimonomiS]

Permanently.

Who said that and where?

 

[Tr0n]

No...because he made seperate accounts.Also yes it was perma...If I remember the rules you get perma banned for that.I think...

Also he was trolling to add on too it.

 

[RakuraiTenjin]

Permanently.

Whoa he contributed a lot to good debate in politics and has some cool posts in off topic :/. Can anyone link me to the posts for banning? Did he post porn or something or just sarcastic like I heard?

edit: I thought multiple accounts wasn't bannable unless you were already banned and it was created to circumvent a ban? That's what the rules say at least last I checked unless they were updated. Ihave that HerzaiMekhtar account from long ago, long long ago (So no banning over it I already talked to Axyon anyway search thread)

 

[Ikerous]

Who said that and where?

I think pi did...

Foxtrot is not going to be unbanned.

 

[Pi Mu Rho]

I beg to differ.

Or maybe it's best that you just stop bringing your petty squabbles to this forum like I've asked. That way, I can concentrate on the "far worse spam" and "real problems".
I'm not trying to censor anything - I just don't want the flame and spam fests that absolutely are going arise from it.

You know what's really funny? The people I was referring to know exactly who they are, and they're the ones arguing.

Edit: Dang I can't keep up with this thread it's growing faster than hell.

 

[Lex Luthor]

Now understand this - Foxtrot is not going to be unbanned. No amount of ridiculous signatures are going to change this simple fact.

I thought he had around 1000 posts. Wow no wonder everyone is so outraged!

 

[Vegeta897]

Lex, I do not follow you.

 

[Tr0n]

Ok...why the hell are ya'll arguing with a super mod?

 

[xLostx]

what people are over looking is the fact that this is going to go on until something changes or there's some type of peace treaty. Either this is the apocalypse of the forums or we need some sexy parties.

 

[Ikerous]

I dont see why a lotta ppl think post count is meaningless
We know Foxtrot was a serious contributer to this community
He's been here for forever, and has made more posts than most people
You don't just go and remove those ppl PERMANENTLY
I can see a temp ban, a month maybe, but permanently banning a serious member is just wrong...

 

[Lex Luthor]

Why do people argue with President Bush?

The rules are subject to change without notice. Read the fineprint the next time.

Go to "view forum leaders" and scroll all the way down.

 

[RakuraiTenjin]

But they weren't changed as far as I know, that's the thing. That statement would make sense if the rules changed, he didn't know, then made 2 accounts, but as far as I know they still state no making account to circumvent bans.

 

[gh0st]

I beg to differ.

Seems like you are the only one in this thread who cant handle that joke. Most of the other people seem to have seen the obvious.

Or maybe it's best that you just stop bringing your petty squabbles to this forum like I've asked. That way, I can concentrate on the "far worse spam" and "real problems".

I could care less about the "real" problems, since they are typically ignored anyway. Your complete disrespect for the people in this thread and, frankly, pompous attitude make it hard to take you seriously. For some reason I get the feeling that you made this post not because you particularly care about any of the hetairia debates but more to posture.

I'm not trying to censor anything - I just don't want the flame and spam fests that absolutely are going arise from it.

If you honestly think most of the other stuff is any better thats laughable. When was the last time you've seen a thread grow like the first hetairia one. People are curious about it, but NO! NO real discussion here! We arent big boys and cant handle the dirty language! We only allow world news posts and stupid movies here!

You know what's really funny?

I beg to differ.

 

[DarkStar]

Yep.

I think that's in the bible actually. Leviticus maybe.

 

[SimonomiS]

Ok, perm-ban, glad that's cleared up now.

FOXTROT IS PERMANENTLY BANNED, THERES NOTHING YOU OR DAVID HASSELHOFF CAN DO ABOUT IT.

Get it yet?

Yea.. we get it ::Sigh::
I think you're the one not getting why some people are against it though...

 

[OCybrManO]

That's obvious, SimonomiS... because David Hasselhoff only has jurisdiction in Germany. If the forums were running on servers in Germany, he could definately fix the problem... probably just by flexing one of his man-boobs.

Haha.

Do you think Germans would make Hasselhoff King of Germany if such a thing existed?

I think they might.

He was a big contributor, he posted a lot and spent a lot of time here, I get it. Regardless of what he did, the mods unanimously decided he deserved a ban. Wheres the point of arguing with it?

Principle?
I really don't care what happens to foxtrot, i just dislike the idea that senior members can be easily thrown away
It's definitely not a sign of a good community

Wow the HUGE FONT of this post has made me not give a shit at all about foxtrot! Who would have guessed it was that easy?!

Maybe they just assumed it was unanimous because nobody felt like dissenting...

Perhaps they hope the mods reconsider?

 

[xLostx]

You'd think that with the amount of users that think the perma ban was unfair and everyone wanting him back that maybe, just maybe they could change the perma ban to something a little shorter maybe a month or so but I still think the ban was/is bullshit and perma banning a member like foxtrot is ludacris.

 

[RakuraiTenjin]

Yeah I don't really like the lot of disrespect going out to regular members here and such to be honest either. I think the point most people are trying to make to get people to see (whether or not it will result in an unban or not isn't the entire point) is that a ban seems alright, for something like a month. However, a permanent ban seems to be simply casting out a member who really is a contributing member to the forum. With stuff like this going on, the entertainment value drops. It makes me disheartened to come here and see a cool poster I liked was perma banned because he made a few annoying posts recently, rather than taken care of. This isn't DeathSeeker we're talking about here.
