I'm not your judge, jury, and executioner. It looks like you broke the rules. Rob asked for rules violations to be reported. If you're innocent, Rob will let you go. If you're guilty of a small infraction, Rob will give you a small infraction. If you're guilty of a larger infraction, Rob will give you a larger infraction. It's you're guilty of a really heinous infraction, Rob will ban you. Don't blame me if you violate the rules. Seriously, do you not know that the mods spot check these forums anyway and that you can be penalized even if no one reports you? Heck, I got reported yesterday and got a two-point violation for something I didn't even think was a rules violation. But, I'm not the judge, jury, or executioner. It's not my decision.
So you are admitting you did report me? You know the penalty is a permanent ban. There are no infractions, and you are aware of this. By reporting me, you are referring me for a ban, yes or no? Based on Rob's reply, I am not violating the rules. So please stop blaming me for breaking them when I am not.
In a way, it is. Or, I thought it was! What I mean to say is, we never took it seriously before and I was under the impression that it was going to be taken seriously NOW. That assumption is now under attack. I thought that things around here were changing. Now... I'm not so sure. In a startling reversal, I may have to argue with that statement. Seriously -- I am completely amazed that gworld made that vicious personal attack on my personal life and you let it slide. If I'm not dumb, then I am completely without explanation.
I do business on this forum, and I don't like the idea of being the subject of a ban attack. I'll let it go. Sorry.
Of course. You broke the rules, by my reading of them. Rob asked for rules violations to be reported. This is actually not true. Another member reported me yesterday and I received a two point violation for "Attacking/Harassing Other Members." No. But if I was, I would feel the same. Rob wrote the rules and he enforces them, so his opinion is the one that counts! I still think that you should apologize for your personal attack on that other member.
Real vicious- ha ha ha! Well enough said then I suppose. BTW- if you do business on this forum and you're "worried" about a ban....DON'T POST IN THIS SECTION!
Hmm... I would say "Now that I know that personal attacks are allowed, I can have more fun again." But, I got a two point violation for something which was much less of a personal attack than the one gworld posted. So... I find no logic or reason in the application of these rules. Which, really, is the cause of my intense confusion. No joke!
I really don't care if don't see any logic or if you're confused. Especially since I know you're trying to be a dick. Go ahead and test it!
No no no no no... damnit. That was just one thread where I was playing and I admitted it. Argghrhghrhrhrhghrghrghrghhhgggg... You're only proving that the rules are unknowable.
Come on Will....Today should be a great day for you. You should be celebrating. Just like Grim pointed out: you reached 9,000 posts today. Grim I noticed is very much into numbers. He also noticed my #666 post. Stop acting like a kid and stop being a pain. Come on, not even guerilla reported me when I called him a pretzel. And guerilla is not exactly my friend either. I expect better from you. But if you want to keep on being childish today that's your call.
Nah... Now if it said "You are a dick", that would be a different thing. Go ahead, read the new rules yourself. Then, look around the forum and see if they relate to what you see.
