The New Rules (Currently in Beta)

[Infinityshock]

Serious question Arnox, I'm actually interested in your response as I'm sure many other are too, you've left a trail of breadcrumbs leading to the answer for some time now and my suspicions are all but confirmed but I have to be straight up for a second when I ask you this and I expect a serious and truthful answer, direct, to the point, no pussyfooting around, just an honest, truthful response and I'll never ask it again

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR IQ?

only fucking retards care what anyone elses IQ is

now stfu and go find a nice juicy window to practice your dick licking skills on

[Lanny]

Why is there still a PI rule. These stupid fights over what is and isn't PI and trying to be the content police only serves to piss everyone off and commodifies PI. Zok was the grand master of PI fascism and that shit was still rampant on zoklet. Why is it the responsibility of the staff here to make sure my picture doesn't get posted?

Will Tagging Articles with users names in them be considered PI?

- If you repeatedly violate a rule, or if we think you are just bringing the site down, you may be banned for a long time or permabanned.

the bold and underlined portion of that is a license to abuse bans

-Please elaborate more what you expect in regard to what the definition of "forum etiquette" is.

-Please remove the "proper spelling and grammar is encouraged". You are already going over the fact that unintelligible babble won't be tolerated later in the rules....and this particular edict sounds like it's coming from a school marm or anal retentive librarian. Which is a bit awkward if not embarrasing considering the type of hardcore user you seem to want to attract.

-Please elaborate on what constitutes "derailing with the purpose to harass a user". This sounds way too generic and broad based, and could be used/abused/interpreted willy nilly depending on the parties and any bias the staff may have in perception of the posts.

-Please elaborate on the meaning of "if we think you are just bringing the site down". This is THE most dangerous rule of all, and sounds way too subjective and open up to interpretation as I just stated above. Kind of how police use "disorderly conduct" as their catchall crutch when no other crime has really been committed, just kind of throwing something at the wall hoping to make anything stick.

Why is there still a PI rule.

Because the purpose to this forum is to exchange ideas and information as well as engage in lively debate. Sure those debates sometimes end up being arguments which escalate into outright flame wars. But if ANYONE at ANY TIME has to resort to "spreading PI" (whether pics, names or anything else) because they are such an immature fuckup in the middle of losing that debate...then they have no business being here. They do need to be perma-banned, as someone that emotionally spastic and mentally lacking  has to actually "go there"...its not conducive in any way, shape or form to what the purpose to this place is, and especially the "kind" of user we want to attract.

This has been explained to you probably a couple DOZEN times now, when will you stop asking this ridiculous question with such an OBVIOUS answer. Just because you don't like the response doesn't mean common sense and adult discourse will suddenly take a vacation because it doesn't fit your toxic and idiotic agenda. Get over it already.....

Today I learned that the Nevermind album cover is CP. I guess I better get rid of it before I get raided.

[Lanny]

Sure, posting PI isn't particularly productive but trying to enforce that rule is one of the most conter-productive sources of drama this community has ever tried (unsuccessfully) to engage in.

Also shut up dapedo, you're bringing the site down.

[equanimity]

No more advertising your things, guys

Also shut up dapedo, you're bringing the site down.

10s of thousands of other message forums all over the internet says you are just spewing fairy tales, myths and bullshit all in a feeble attempt at muddying the waters and creating the illusion it is "hard" to keep conversation in check.

You shut up Lanny, you're bringing the site down by trying to champion the "cause(?)" of PI spreading....along with insulting everyone's intelligence by thinking people will buy into your bullshit fairy tales that have no basis or foundation for even a second.

[DaGuru]

No more advertising your things, guys

If you want to prove your competence and sincerity in actually enforcing these rules...why not go do your fuckin job and take care of reply #17, instead of prattling on with irrelevant nonsense.

InB4 the coy/stupid card is played......

[Lanny]

No, you're insulting everyone by implying they're as much of a little bitch as you are. Man the fuck up, if you're so stupid that you can't keep your personal info under wraps then you shouldn't be posting here anyway. Instead you want to be a dipshit and go cry to the staff when someone posts your name like it even matters.

[Nasheeds and Lesbians]

DaGuru, you and I both know the day a pic of you is posted is the last day you post here due to a massive overdose of shame. I can't imagine you being anything less than absolutely tragic/hilarious/pitiful looking, coupled with your middle aged retarded try hardedness it'd add a whole new pathetic and creepy dimension to it.

[Nasheeds and Lesbians]

Hey, Lanny, if I bought a domain and host would you code/admin it?
