I said it, and I stand by it. POD and Cat's trolls were some of the funniest I've seen in a long time. OGT's cracked me up more than they pissed me off.

THIS IS STUPID, on the other hand, was an obnoxious asshole.
I banned zem because when I checked the ip of the 5th or 10th post I came across, it had zem's name on it.

I later saw Kharn or somebody taking credit for some of those posts, but zem was already unbanned by that point, so I saw no point in banning anyone else.

alright boys......since you two clearly can't communicate with each other without trying to beat on your chest and show who is the boss...

Ygsm-what harm would there be for you to post on asshats if you are thinking about or planning on making a change that will affect the 'community'. It's not saying you have to follow what the community wants. It's just advanced warning. It also at least gives the impression (although somewhat falsely-since it's not like you can't completely dismiss everyone's opinion and do your own thing anyway) that you care how others may be affected.

Why not put up a rule that spammers will be given a posting limit. Or banned your call?! Can't it just be consistent one way or another. While, I know I'm not feeling particularly bad for zem right about now, given his tantrum at fuxxored, I'm sure some are wondering when they'll be banned next for spamming in a fashion that you don't like. I mean hell the diabetic coma that cat and pod put up made me wanna hurl. Yet most found it amusing. (Once I actually stopped having sugar induced seizures and read what they were posting it was pretty fucking funny.) So where's the line? No one wants to feel like they're walking on egg shells waiting until they piss you off badly enough.

don't you ever read that board sober?

ps

what kharn said was that he reg'd the name 'this is stupid', thus preventing further use of that name.
although, what point he thought there was to that I have no idea.
hash is legal there, I think.

No, I don't read the board sober very much. duh.

Zem claimed he stopped posting at 1:00pm, Kharn said he reg'd the id, I drew a bad inference from it and didn't do anything anyway.

yawn.

The funny thing is that actually works, because registered names show the same thing as is shown to banned people, which is, uhm, "uh, uh, naughty"

So whoever is posting could also assume he's banned, rather than that some cocktard reg'd his name.

Meh, depends on the stupidity of the spammer

>hash is legal there, I think.

That might also have been of influence on the above, yes.
