While ACK is a member of BHS, he is not the embodiment of BHS, nor the sole voice. However, he is my friend and a very talented level designer/texture artist.

The problem is that you value him too much.
Being skilled doesn't mean that he should be allowed to do whatever he wants.

That's not what she was saying, you idiot. The fact that you're allowed free speech here is the reason why I can say what I have.

But there are some rules you're expected to follow.

Take any forum in my signature.When something like "-ModNameHere- Sux" appears, it gets closed and the poster is warned for his actions.

Sounds like facism, like what happened under that "evil dictator." You know ... Bush.

Yes, its something like that.
But rules are created for a better community.Not like the Renegade Zoo, we are talking in.
Take Strategy-X, for an example.Yesterday we banned a bum for calling the admin "thickheaded" and "ignorant twat".But what if we didnt ban him?He`d go arround flaming other people, like AK is flaming Reborn and almost anything non-RenAlert...

Exactly. If they don't have something, they want it. If they have something, they could do without it. Can't please these people.

Yes, but people dont like being called morons or such.

"well he only lieks renalart so everyting elaese sux to him omg"

Take this for an example, if he`d told me that with no keyboards, no mics, or without any ways of non-direct contact, face to face, i`d kick his ass like i did with a bum yesterday for talking behind my back.

Freedom of speech is indeed a joy.But its also a way to bypass the problems of reality.Do you realise that since Westwood handed the forums to the community it has been like hell for most members, because of ass-holes talking shit here and there.They are people that have problems in reality and really need to lay it off on other people, knowing they will get away with it.

So what if he did this?He doesnt care because he knows he`ll get away with it.

That picture is humorous not because of what Aircraftkiller said, but because of everybody using Hell Yeah scripts. Since Aircraftkiller was constantly annoying everyone with random Hell Yeahs, a lot of people on IRC put in a script that echoed him. He knew about this, and wrote that long message because it would get echoed. As you can see, the results were phenomenal, not to mention quite funny.

And also, note what he said:

Aircraftkiller

I hope Crimson finds this funny because if she doesn't we're all dead.

He didn't know he was going to get away with it. He was aware of the possible consequences.
