Interpreting Sig rules

[Z-man]

Well lets see how well people start paying attention when I start handing out 30 day bans because they cant follow a simple instrustion as to leave something lay. Once again, it not thier business so dont get into it. And its not sour grapes it being fed up with users on this forum that think for some damn reason they have some god given right to have a say in punishments that get handed down on users that break the rules.

Well... I guess ultimatly you have the power to make this forum into what you want. I would like to see LBP back (sooner than never). Did you want to wait for a differnet issue or you want to boot me now? kisses

Wow, just wow. AO really has jumped the shark. Time to look for another forum I guess.

[RobAGD]

Well... I guess ultimatly you have the power to make this forum into what you want.

It has very little to do with what I want. It has more to do with people getting off this one subject. Do you under stand ho wmany god damn rules that kid broke ? It has been repeted several times over and over. He had multible ban evasions, Sig Abuse issues and in general was behaving like an asshat.

I would like to see LBP back (sooner than never). Did you want to wait for a differnet issue or you want to boot me now? kisses

Nope Ill do you now, thank you very much.

Well, it shared a direct association with my ban...

Ah but YOUR NOT LPB, its not your issue. and your bans and his were not linked, like offences as I uderstand it.

at the risk of getting banned here for talking about the LPB situtation, I wanna give my two cents here.

I ignored the whole LPB thing, infact I though it died and the only reason I noticed it was because I'm a fanatic reader of the ban forum!

ALL this could have been avoided with ONE simple E-mail to all the mods. If LPB would have writen ONE e-mail saying I'm sorry NONE of this would have gone down. My Proof. Time and Time again ppl have done WAY worse. There was some guy that was posting porn in the friendlys and all he did was applologize and he was back. I personaly think that it would have deserved a permanent IP ban due to the nature and the "in your face" attitude with which it was done, but lucky for this individual I'm not a mod. We have ALL see this happen and that's my proof. Infact I dare say if he would appologize now his permaban could possible be resolved. The reason I say possibly is because all your arguing at best made his situation worse.

Without integrity no one can pursuade another, what have you done to show integrity?

ps,
squid=slipknot? are they the same person? I haven't seen slipknot in a while

[...] let me draw a gross parallel. If one commits a murder, and one hides the body because one knows that the act they just commited is wrong, should that make them exempt from punishment?

By parallel gross you must have meant "grossly incorrect" because your analogy is too far removed from the idea you're speaking of to be correct. You should have said that his actions were analogous to shooting a person and just as the person was dropping dead, you were able to save them by somehow retracting the bullet back to the gun, thus sparing the would-be victim. I know that sounds nit-picky, but you cant say asinine things without someone checking you on them. To clarify, a crime was "commited" and then "uncommited", not commited then covered up (the stashed body bit).

I've been posting a lot less recently because my distaste for the actions taken by you and the AO mod team drove me away. I feel it totally necessary to call the mods on certain things because they should be more accountable than the rest of us. That includes RobAGD's calling LPB's actions those of an "asshat." Poor form by you both and a big F- grade in my book. You're both examples of moderation "failures".

[CaliMagFan]

To any AO mod... Who is ultimately in control of the content of the forums? I realize there is a webmaster, but does he answer to the administration of AGD? I'm curious from a customer service standpoint as to who's edict you're all practicing.

... What was Automaggot banned for? Pointing out a fallacy conceived by the "Mod Team?" I don't get it. Please don't tell me that another "Random-ban" epidemic is about to break out...

Yeah, thats confusing me too. And saying "dont worry about it" and that "its none of your business" wont really help. Basically seeing a friend "Arrested" and punished, but you're not supposed to worry about it.....because somehow it isn't any of your business. So you just turn a blind eye, and dont worry about what is happening to anybody but yourself

maybe i confused myself.

refering to "he who must not be named" he recieved the equivalent of a lifetime sentence......

Back to the original topic of the thread, sorry to beat a dead horse, but. " i offered to suck his penis "

However, there are some rules as we strive to keep the Forum "family" orientated, and maintain a "PG-13" level of discussion.

"i offered to suck his penis " isn't at all family orientated. At least not in my book.

As for flaming and personally insulting other members, I've been personally insulted a few times because of my race and religion, and openly attacked. Cphillip took care of the posts in the correct manner i believe, by removing them.

Refering to the rules, I think Webby did a fine job listing them, but common sense should be used as well.

Also, why was Aegis banned? Throughout the thread I constantly saw him try to calm people down and make sure things did not get out of line, however he was banned?

Ok i'm done, sorry for the rant.

RobAGD - if the users on this forum are bothering you that much, maybe it's time for YOU to step down as an AO Moderator. From the comments and actions you've made, I can honestly say that you've gone completely insane!!

[RobAGD]

MM - Its about 10-15 users that are bothing me and if thing keep going, They will all be gone in a few days. So far I think we are up to 6 30 day bans.

Neither I or Automaggot brought up LPB, nor made any references to him in this entire thread.

My question was solely aimed at Automaggot's ban, which was for defending me (Not LPB if that's what you were thinking). However, he defended me in a such a manner that he was respectful, calm, and didn't break any rules.

Now... What was he banned for?

[thecavemankevin]

according to this squid, you got banned yesterday for threatening a mod...???

-=Squid=- = 5 days. Threatening the AO Moderation Team.

and according to the ban thread automaggot was banned for not letting the LPB thing die. not saying it accurate or not....thats just what it says

Looks like Rob needs a little reading comprehension.

Automaggot was talking about ME, not LPB. ME. Neither one of us at ANY point were, are, or will be talking about LPB.

OMG WTH HAPPENED TO ALL MY NORCAL AO FRIENDS?!

"Sig Abuse issues and in general was behaving like an asshat."

"Do you under stand ho wmany god damn rules that kid broke ?"

In essence,
"no, the rules dont apply to me, j000 want to be banzored?"
