Yeah, especially from a guy who doesn't even play Renegade anymore... would that make you somewhat like ACK?

Says who? I'm pretty sure I play a game or two a night.. or, are you just thinking you're smart because you searched the stats for msgtpain and didn't find anything?
If you didn't see the sarcasm in my post, I can't help you, sorry.

No... I was agreeing with you. I just don't understand why people who don't even have Renegade installed on their computer feel they have to contribute to these forums (excluding Politics/Hot Issues).

AndrewCow | We all know what really goes on. As in the old days like creed said, things will never change.
Sad to see the "Renegade Public Forums" show so much bias.
|
Wow, look what crawled out of the woodwork. Someone give me a bat to send it back. :rolleyes:
Obviously you didn't read the whole thread, nor have you been here for quite some time, because if you had read the thread, you would know that I do NOT show any bias towards anyone. Let me point it out since you're too lazy to read the thread:
Me a few pages ago | It's not favoritism... I didn't and haven't banned deadfive for posting twelve million topics about his stupid website. I constantly let Vitaminous be an ass and a useless member of the forums without banning him, and I really don't like the guy at all. I let SuperFlyingLiberal stay on here even though I think he's an idiot and a waste of perfectly good oxygen. It's NOT favoritism. I don't feel it's really my place to ostracize anyone, especially the game's most prolific map maker, from the closest thing to the "official" community that we have left, unless they blatantly break the rules.
Do I wish he would stop the childish, constantly, quite OLD derailing of topics for asinine reasons? You bet I do, and my hints like changing his nickname haven't helped a bit. I don't know when he'll get the message.
|
People hated ACK well before I was ever given responsibility for these forums, and nothing will change that.
But I do believe the fact that this thread is still open is a big reminder that I'm not trying to censor your opinions on the subject. You have all, however, failed to convince me that banning him would be a good idea or a deserved punishment.
I'm the bawss.

wow, i did more posts here in last 24 hours, than i have in the entire existance of the private ren forums.
ban don't ban, not for anyone but you or your moderators to decide. the biggest problem has always been a equal standard.
if something is unacceptable or inappropriate, it is that way for all. if people cannot adhere to a common standard, then do with them what you will. that's one thing i don't recall ever seeing here as there is most formal or gaming sites, a acceptalbe use policy, or rules of conduct. that way people know what is permissable and what is not.
i think msgt pain will agree with that as well.
and i do frequent these forums more than you know, another name is always possible.

Yes, Argus, you're quite clever and so secretive. :rolleyes:
Your capacity for intelligent thinking could fit inside a matchbook, without taking the matches out. You just can't fathom the concept of a forum that's not run anal-rententively. No one wants to sit here and read every single little post and moderate it. Almost everyone here has behaved well within any standards I would have hoped for, and I'm content with it.
I'm the bawss.

K9Trooper | My God! I thought things would have changed in my absence here. Sad to see they haven't.
This whole topic should have been locked 7 pages ago and moved to the "Silo". :rolleyes:
|
Why, because someone was voicing an opinion that you don't agree with?

no, no.. as long as it stays on topic, and I don't attack your character, we're all good.. We are still talking about banning ACK, right? If we deviate and begin to discuss something else, our post will be edited.

Sir Phoenixx | He hasn't broken any rules, he's only been annoying to some, and until he attacks the forum/server, or floods the forums with identical topics, etc., there would be no reason to ban him.

True the rules don't say anything about annoying, however I've highlighted the rules he has broken...

Aircraftkiller | That's irrelevant to this thread.
