Please tell me this is some kind of joke. Yes, Kon-Tiki's thread was a bit "over the top", but please tell me that "Insulting Staff" isnt really a reason for somebody to be banned.... | |||

I guess nobody messes with staff. That's why I stress everyone to be respectful no matter their position on my board. But personally I've never come across a problem here. So I shouldn't be talking. (edited by Xeogred on 04-02-04 02:56 PM) |

Insulting staff was the wrong reason to ban, however, he deserved a ban for flaming Yiffy Kitten. And how exactly would you expect to get away with insulting someone AT THE BOARD THEY MODERATE, next to every single post you make? I think he did it on purpose to get banned, and got what he wanted. |

"Insulting staff" is more of a way to quickly summarize it. He basically blatantly ignored the staff's rulings and kept on making anti-Yiffy Kitten threads, so he got banned. | |||

It's in the FAQ as #10 for non-staff, and when you insult staff, it's that much worse. I must thank whoever banned that idiot for me Imajin: How is it a joke? I don't understand, please, fill me in: When someone that dumb does something that dumb, why should it not result in punishment? |

Becuase that seems ridiculous that "insulting staff" warrants a ban. I mean, if Yiffy Kitten was a normal user, there would have dfinately been more leeway. I personally cant see any reason why staff deserve special treatment... | |||

It seems to me that if Yiffy Kitten was a normal user, he'd still be banned. The FAQ clearly states: DON'T: . . . 10. FLAME, or purposely try to be an ass to people. (edited by FreeDOS on 04-02-04 07:29 PM) (edited by Acmlm on 04-18-04 05:02 AM) |

Yet it says Insulting Staff, which implies that a staff member gets special treatment over a regular user. I know it says not to expect the board to be a Utopia, but it seems werid that a staff member should get special "Anti-insult" protection.. I'm sure the staff's definition of "being an ass" is much harsher when it's directed at them.. It's human nature EDIT: Ok, I read This thread, which explained the situation, and I see that I was really downplaying Kon-Tiki's flaming... I guess he did deserve the ban.

Originally posted by Imajin Why the hell do you care so much about one word? Kon-Tiki would have been banned for it anyways. For the record, the reason that flaming staff is doubly-so enforced is because, in many ways, the staff are the rules of this place. |

This is somewhat of an autocracy. Get used to it, Imajin We rarely win battles against staffz0rs And I think flaming/trolling was the reason they were banned.... |

Staff is staff because of special treatment... that's kinda the point. heck, I was banned for being unliked by the staff for awhile It was originally a perma-ban, but we worked out a deal. Anyway, now I'm back from outer space. I just walked in to see you here with that sad look upon your face. and um... Yiffy Kitten is cool... so is ||bass and Acmlm... and maybe Jesper (time will tell for sure)... and everyone loves Anya and Rydain... so yeah, they should get special treatment 'cause they make the rules and they deal with people like knuck who say "omg teh board is disappeared" too many times. So yeah... three-cheers for board-ban-week! how many people we up to now? hmm... 11... it's equal to admins :-P one ban for every admin. heh. |

A little brown? XD A lot maybe. Staff deserve a little respect yes. But I'm sure if they broke the rules, they would also be punished as well. (I await the first public flogging of an admin....) |

Why can staff insult users? Hmm, I dunno, I guess staff has more right, because without them there wouldn't be no board or the board would be crap, so they want respect for their hard work to make this board have the fun posting experience that it's known for. |
