Sorry, but this needs addressed...
.....I know, I know...it's such a difficult job. Boo fucking hoo.
Well that's the problem. There's no boo-fucking hoo about it, just straight descision making and a complete absence of hollow-threat making which can be confusing to those who are used to that. The only
non-stop fucking boo-hoo-hoo was coming from: JIMP and Zuk. If you are not willing to address that then you're not really sincere about addressing anything at all. Shower JIMP with all the clique-based flatterings you want, the bottom line is he wasn't banned for his "thoughtful and often even keeled" posting. He was banned for non-stop crying and stubbornly refusing to accept a simple ruling.
I say again: Admin moderator calls are not a debate. They do not qualify.
I'll be at the close-minded, tiny boys club, not banning people.
Yeah well you do that. Sorry to see you go I really am but there are two sides here; the Admin side who will not waste their daddy-time on people playing stupid clique-ish games, and the other side who seem to think we should take every suggestion verbatum but take none of the responsibility for those suggestions should they be implimented.
We have spoken, quite "even keeled' already about this explaining ourside but yourside coninually decides to suck it's thumb about this. JIMP and Zuk and apparently yourself seem to childishly refuse to hear what we're saying, even attempt to honestly understand the balance we are trying to maintain or any thing else we talk to you about. Zuk and JIMP are not willing to listen or see our side of it at all. All we're getting is a loud non-stop stream of demands lest this forum 'slide' into whatever ridiculious depravity you choose to imagine.
Non-stop like this:
ZUK or JIMP:
"If you don't see and do things the way you say you're in danger of becoming even less cool (in our opinion) compared with NPBoards -- the greatest thing to ever happen to the Internet".Like I care. Get over yourselves. We impliment the rules not you and JIMP/Zuk hardly qualify as 'members of the IAP community' so quit acting like they were. I could've just suspended them but they've already been suspended once for the very same crap. Get over yourselves and learn that you're not always going to be in control. This would be an easier lesson if you didn't spend all your time in a fishbowl clique.
2DOH what Zuk and JIMP were doing was non-stop insincere crap and Im not going to deal with it. i have two kids already.
I'm sick of it and I don't particularily care if im the last one here, or the next one to go, we're not going to deal with pointless crap all the time. Don't like it? Then don't even bother telling us yopu're leaving just go. i like you 2DOH but im not going to be held hostage. We're the ones applying the rules and that's just all there is to it. No point telling us you're going to leave...just leave.
We reasoned with you guys quite beyond the point of reason and I really don't care if you don't like it. Why would i? The decision was made and they just couldn't shut up about it and weren't willing to see it from our view.
Baldar came here to be purposely disruptive and when we spoke about it with him by PM he told us essentially to go screw ourselves he'll do whatever he wants. We had no choice. Immediately after that Zuk and JIMP showed up with the non-stop crap and cry-baby shit. WHY 2DOH? Why? Because you're all in the same boys-club clique. No sense pouting about it or faking offense if it's true. If you guys are going to bullshit me then why should I care what you think? Later.2DOH I know that's the case and so do you so if you can't accept it, welp sorry to see you go but I'd have to estimate that truely you know exactly why this ended up happening but see no alteranative but to side with your clique. Ok. Cya.
