What happened to your rock n' roll forum dream now? "Fuck the rules", right? Or did you mean "fuck the rules unless you're part of the staff, then shut the hell up and let the poeple do as they please"?
I never said "fuck the rules". If you'd like to claim that I did, find it and quote me.
It's unfortunate that you've chosen to ignore the fact that, throughout this thread and others, I have advocated FOR a rule against insulting others. For example, I had suggested this as a set of rules I would like to see:
1. Don't insult or harass other users, and don't post other users' PMs without their permission.
2. No spamming.
3. When posting translations or rumors, please include a disclaimer to remind others that there may be mistakes or other inaccuracies.
4. Maximum avatar size is (whatever).
5. Don't share audio or video files outside of the sharing subforum.
Ad hominem insults are not appropriate for MD to make, and they're not appropriate for you to make either. They're also against the current forum rules. You're the one violating forum rules here, not me.
As for the "rock'n'roll" thing, I was referring (which I thought was clear) to the overall atmosphere and attitude of the forum, the administrative style used around here, and the abundance of
unnecessary rules.
I'm fed up with Lucs getting shit for being "on our side" (wtf guys, seriously)
I couldn't care less whose "side" Lucs is on or whether or not he's a mod. I didn't post the macro, I thought it was stupid.
However, I disagree with much of what he's said on this thread, and I'm not exactly delighted with how he has made a hobby of telling me I said things I never said and then attacking me for them (strawman arguments). All I've done to him is clear up the false and misleading statements he's made about me. If, as I said before, he feels that that makes him look ridiculous, maybe he should consider that next time before spreading bullshit about others.
I can tell you to jump off a cliff, even though there aren't any rules that say you should. I can even write a formal letter that asks you to. Would you call it bullying or terrorizing?
Uh, if you wrote a formal letter asking me to kill myself? Fuck yes I'd consider that bullying.
You see anything wrong with a post-> Click the "Report post to moderator button". That simple.
Given the (rather amusing) attempts lately by multiple staff members to tag team me on this thread, I don't find that particularly useful, thanks.
Apply for a mod position and get it, then read all you want in the mods subforum.
Haha, no. Why the hell would I want to mod here? And of course you don't have to prove anything to me, nor to anyone. It would simply be in your best interest to do so now and then, in the interest of creating an atmosphere based around trust and transparency rather than subterfuge and intrigue. As I've said, a lack of transparency breeds suspicion, warranted or not.
Don't make up things, I never said that I made the new rules because dc called PN a puta.
You claimed that there was previously no rule about not insulting people, and mentioned darkcat calling PN a puta as an example of the supposed shortcomings of the old rules.
By the way, you didn't answer my question about whether you find PN's treatment of other users on the hide death thread to be an example of appropriate behavior.
What's the point of this topic anyway? To whine? To find faults in what we do? To prove us wrong as much as you can? What will happen? What should happen? What do you want to happen?
Well, I did try suggesting more solutions. You told me you didn't want to hear them.
If you feel like misinterpreting stuff I say and questioning me about it like Hollywood did in his latest post, please PM me.
For the record, this is what I said to you in my post prior to this one:
Everyone has understood and respected that you have your feelings against the rules - now can you respect that everyone doesn't like being terrorized and insulted (like PN) or want to read about MD's fantasies?
So now I've "terrorized and insulted" PN? Ha, good one! So now pointing out when User A harasses and insults User B counts as harassment of User A?
Examples of me "terrorizing" PN, por favor?
You claimed that I've terrorized PN, I asked for examples of where I've done that. If I've misinterpreted what you said, then explain what you meant.
And yes, if you make a false public claim that I have done something which I haven't, I AM going to "question you about it". Publicly. If you're going to claim I did something to someone, back it up with proof. Give me examples of where I was "terrorizing" PN.
