I think Dan is taking things way to seriously.

Honestly, this isn't PM material. I think Dan is sticking that pickle way too far up his ass. And I want everyone to know what I think and discuss this in a matter that can hopefully resolve all the fcuking tension. Since when did sarcasm become flaming's gasoline? I think people tend to forget that what happens in front of your computer is meaningless in any aspect of your life, and that any sarcastic comment I make is constantly being blown way out of proportion.

Case-in-point, my comment about the banning of gay literature. Everyone seemed to openly understand my sarcastic and satirical comment based on what I read from the article. Then this kid shows up and starts saying he wants to kill me, and not as a joke, he was serious. Showing flagrant hostility for a joke, that is by all accounts in favour of what he believes to be a correct. Any ideas or comments?

Or the whole thing about Maverick saying I like getting rim-jobs and me openly inviting him for another round of happy anus-love. It was a joke, and I'm pretty sure he was joking around too.

Or the whole "Aoi" thing. I said she wasn't cute for all the flirting, ect. Nothing horrible had to come from that. It was honestly a joke, and someone said: "Wow! You're a meanie! I hate you now!"

If making this post gets me banned, so be it.

i have kinda noticed that there are lots of noob flamers these days... i dont think its dan taking things to seriously i think its many of the noob flamers and the people being flamed, they seem to be serious i dont kno maybe its just me...but things are kinda getting a liitle crazy

flamers are tolerable when they say things sarcastically to the a certain point, when they critise something stupid someone has done but also to a certain limit

anyway thats my perception of all this

Exactly, I find some of the things that people say are completely redundant and uncalled for. ie: Earthbound. He had no buisness flaming me for any of the topics that he did in, and far less articulately, mind you. He had nothing to do with the conversation. Out of no where, he says: "I think you're an ass and a bitch for not being polite to girls." What the hell does he care how I treat others? I haven't had any beef with him at all, my thought is that he wanted to look cool to everyone and "prove" that he was "flame worthy?". I don't know. But what I do know is, some people here _are_ making stupid flames. (ie: "I think you're a gay ass that likes getting your butt licked"). But I personally don't think I've any reason to take the load of rage that Dan seems to be accumulating when everyone is failing to see some of the most important things here. Yes, I say random things sometimes. Yes, I say sarcastic things sometimes. Yes, I'll say: "I don't like you because j00 t4lk 2 much l1k3 d1z". And even then, it's always jokes. I honestly cannot fathom anyone taking my flames seriously.

I think that everyone should just lay low for a while, and hopefully we'll get this website sorted out.

You know, an easy, good first step to resolving all the tension would be to stop using the f word.

You say that know, but you didn't remember it when you flamed Earthbound or ELCOMANDANTE or Cornflake or Maverick, and you'll probably forget it in ten minutes.
(Even if the flare with Maverick was a joke, it is not appropriate for this site.)

It's outstandingly obvious that they have been taken seriously.
Your giving us all kinds of examples of how your comments are purely sarcastic and all in good fun. But we've seen again and again that these comments lead to flame wars. If you stop the sarcastic comments and apologize to those you've flamed, things should cool down. Aight?

Also, stop throwing in small but nonetheless insulting comments in your posts. It's awfully hard for Earthbound (and the rest of compsci.ca) to forgive and forget when provoking little comments like these are strewn across all your posts.

Dan has been very lenient with the aggressive banning rule with regards to you. If you actually care about compsci.ca, take my advice and do the following:

    1.) Stop the small, insulting, and provoking comments.
    2.) Stop the sarcastic posts.
    3.) Apologize to those you've flamed, and to compsci.ca

I am not doing this out of some personal reason, just look at the site rules and your posts. If i was to strikly falow them u whould be baned about 100 times over. lets just take a look at this post alone........


Lets just assume that u could get away with making a post soley ageset an admin and that this whould not volite our flame rules to start with. then u have this lovely line:

Quote:

I think Dan is sticking that pickle way too far up his ass.


Now other then the fact that this line here purely flaming me, it is also inprorite content for this site and breaks our PG level guid line.

Also u have more nice languge later on:

Quote:

......resolve all the fcuking tension.


No need for swearing, the same msg whould have been give w/o it. It is also agest the site rules.


If no one understand your "sarcastic and satirical comment[s]" and take office to them, then stop posting them. Even if we say that ur coments realy are just sracastic and u mean no harm, u should know now that poleop are not taking them that way and should have stoped.

Also Earthbound did have buisness "flaming" you, he is both my and Aoi's firends and he was trying to defend us and stick up for his firends.


Now this is your last and fianl warning, start compling 100% to the rules of the site or u will be removed for a set time perioed. That means no more swearing and no more content unsuited for this site. Also no more unprovoked flaming.

Poleop do not get baned for no reason, and almost allways there has to be at least 2 admins or serveral mods to ok the baning of some one. Jono's baning was aproved by more then one person, and was not just one person being pissed off. Also all banings are not just done b/c we do not like the poleop, they whould have to vaoilt the rules of the site in more then one post.

It is not like we are hiding the rules and just randomly making up new ones, they are and have been posted for some time. If u have a problem with some of the rules then post and talk about it but do not go nuts and try to see how many times u can break it b4 u get baned.

I was not the one who brougth up the case of baning jonos and i was not the one who aucatly baned him so u whould have to ask the person who did for the excat rules. But it was having to due with the new no tolarnce baning rules and some of his more choice posts lately.

Hey you, be quiet, you're not in this. Learn to write properly first, then die a dignified death. Wink You remind me of short_1, just without the huge spaces in between the lines of your posts.

If people want to flame, let them flame!
If you acctually care what someone you don't know 'says' to you on a website (or in the real world), you've got other problems, that maybe a psychiatrist should look at (depression).
I don't think you should limit the flaming to PM's, because....I personally like to read flames, there fun, and interesting, and some of the stuff expressed in them is the most lively content I've seen on this site in a while. (Nowadays, I only lurke, and only post when I feel the need.)

Arguing is part of human nature, thats why your girlfriend(If you've got one.) gets upset/mad at you about the stupidest, and most pointless things, and why best friends get in fights about even stupider things. But these examples never really last.....like how long can you stay mad at your best friend?

People want to flame, its part of being human. Its also kinda of funny to hear the insults people can come up with, and see how witty they can be.

Post subject: 

octopi, i definately agree with the "Arguing is part of human nature" thing, and do find the flame wars kinda fun to read.However, it gets unnerving when a whole site is up in arms because of a couple poeples' posts. There are rules and guidelines that just have to be followed, no matter how instinctive arguing is. Plus, arguing is stating your views in opposition to someone else's views, flamming is just plain disregard for the other person's opinion. Just look at our posts ...i am arguing your point without flamming, so i support the no flame rule.

My whole point is that......theres something wrong when 'a whole site is up in arms' over something so stupid, and pointless. People care about it, and they shouldn't.
