I fail to see how "good"/"nice"/ whatever you are in real life has to do with how you act online.

If you're a great person in real life, good for you. It's still not an excuse to act like a jerk on the internet and get away with it.

(I know this is in response to your post, Aircraftkiller, but it's not directed at you specifically. It applies to everyone.)

it's not an excuse

in fact i never alluded to it being an excuse at all

what i did say was that he's welcome to know me in person if he wants to. i'm sure we'd be great friends.

but if he wants to keep thinking of me like he does, he can. but i'd be willing to drop it if he wants to as well

I can promise you that my "retribution" and making up for past events does include better and more distinct rules of conduct. I just don't think such a conversation will be very productive until we decide whether certain individuals will be staying or going.

Other "heads" will most likely be chopped, but not all will get the decency of a vote.

Like the people from Clanwars.cc who you banned for saying such hideous personal slanders and unforgivable attacks as "wow, so crimson WAS lying... lol" (which was true) and "spoony didn't do anything..."

Hopefully these new rules of conduct will be clear about the fact you aren't allowed to call someone a liar when they've just publicly lied to the community and banned several people to try to cover it up, and you aren't allowed to side with someone who's just been banned to conceal something.

Ugh...

The rule was: Don't bring [this stuff] up, or you will be banned. You brought that stuff up, and were banned.

NO ONE was banned for siding with you. The ONLY ones who were banned, were banned for helping you avoid that ban by posting things (about the stuff that was not allowed to be posted] for you.

It's amazing how gullible you are... Crimson spouts the same lies she's been feeding the entire community, and you swallow it like a mouthful of semen.

Apparently if an admin says black is white, it's true because it was stated by the admin... I get it.

Erm, ofcourse it is. It's like when you join a server. If the server says that must jump while running and u don't, and they kick-ban you for it, then it is your fault for not following their rules.

By signing up here, u pretty much agree to follow what the admins tell you to do or to go away.

I knew someone would bring this up. When all other justification for Crimson's actions fail miserably, it becomes "it's her forum, she can run it as pathetically as she wants"

That's the beauty of a private server. ANYTHING goes. If you don't like it, leave.

Oh? Then, may I ask, if she's lying, why are you still here? Last I heard, the ban was going to last only 7 days. Now, if she were lying and wanted to cover everything up... why are you still allowed to post?

You have absolutely NO clue as to why he called you stupid, do you? He's not calling you stupid for voting "yes", nor is he calling you stupid for disliking Aircraftkiller. He's calling you stupid because of WHY you voted "yes". You haven't been here long enough to know half the shit that's happened over the years. All you can base your opinion on is what you've seen on the forums. If you have such a narrow view of him, how can you vote "yes"? Being an asshole on some forums (that has no set rules) isn't something that deserves a ban. THAT is why he was calling you stupid.


I'm glad someone here caught on.

Mad Ivan, half the reason why you voted for him to be banned is for shit that happened on another site. What he did somewhere else has nothing to do with this vote. Before you decide to say, "OMG BUT HE DID SHIT HERE ALSO D:", read what j_ball430 just said in his post - "Being an asshole on some forums (that has no set rules) isn't something that deserves a ban."

Thumbs Up


Hey, it's just my oppinion, Coolrock. I voted "yes" and will continue to support my statement.

btw, people that have been calling my reason stupid:

my opinion of him is based on what i have seen of him on this forum, even though i havnt been here very long, i havn't had a positive impression yet.

and remember:

Quote:

Please consider your own motives and opinions here. Simply put, [would these forums be better if he weren't posting on them?


from the negative things i have seen/heard about ACK, i voted yes.


anything else you feel you need to moan about?

my hair maybe Sarcasm

Again, what you've seen from him is what most people on these forums do...

As for these forums being "better" without him here... people are still going to do the same shit whether or not he's here. He's not the root of the problem.

like i said, i think it would be better without him.

it seems you completely ignored that, as when i say better, it could just mean less arguments, even if others still do what they do; after all, there is a reason behind this poll; i dont beleive it was randomly created to pick on ACK, and, as it currently stands, more people want him out.

POLL


Permanently ban Aircraftkiller?[ 94 vote(s) ]
1. Yes 51 / 54%
2. No 43 / 46%

Now I know you have absolutely no argument, else you wouldn't be resorting to semantics. It's quite pathetic when you have to resort to splitting hairs.

Statistics don't mean jack shit. Sure, statistically the forums could be "better" with less arguments, but that doesn't make the forums better. In a thread/forum with countless amounts of flaming, one less person isn't going to make a difference. Ever hear the song "Blue on Black"?

Kenny Wayne Shepherd

Blue on black
Tears on a river
Push on shove
Don't mean much
Joker on Jack
Match on a fire
Cold on ice
A dead man's touch
Whisper on a scream
Doesn't mean a thing

since this is part of a democratic vote, statistics do mean something.


statistics in this decide whether ACk stays or goes.

and you, evidently, have nothing to argue either; you voted that you want ACK to stay, but have not said why yet either. you have only wanted to know why people want him to go.

so go on, humour me, why do you want him to stay?
