Yes the forums I mentioned are the most policed places on the sites. But I'm not the one policing them with infractions. Maybe Ill talk to Arnox about "infraction free" zones being the forums I mentioned. Unless a post directly violates the rules (cp, pi, etc) then its fine as it is there. I think that would allow the users who want to have their shits and giggles to have those shits and giggles outside of the more serious conversations.

we have been saying this all along, or at least I have....arnox was abso-fucking-lutely against it.  He will never acquiesce, the reason those are the most policed places on the site is because he wants to run those people off the site, or at least corrall and try to tame them (which will never fucking happen)

fucking this look at the grasping at straws he and zek make to ban users that hurt their feels

zek can't even follow the modding rules Arnox himself berated Edify for and made a thread addressing when Idio did it but will there be an address from the faggon dragon about zek nope probably just bullshit dismissals and half assed excuses

why oh why does this place reek of double standards huh?

Blatant thread derailment is different from normal conversation flow.

Please read the OP of this thread for clarification:

Off-topic posting is NOT against the rules UNLESS it's blatant derailing such as the following.

"Have you guys ever gone snowboarding before?"

"I like whipped cream LOL."

This however is normal conversation flow.

"I really like pizza."

"Especially ones with pepperoni toppings."

"I think pepperoni's pretty gross..."


Time is always against you in some way or another.

so then you're admitting you're unfairly banning people because this certainly sidesteps a lot of the discussion about the un even handling of this

along with the fact one of your moderators threw a tizzy and banned someone today because their feelings were hurt and they were looking for the flimsiest of excuses along with deleting the aforementioned post the user received a ban for

What are rules?
Das ist des Jägers Ehrenschild,
daß er beschützt und hegt sein Wild,
weidmännisch jagt, wie sich’s gehört,
den Schöpfer im Geschöpfe ehrt.

I'm not reading all that, but pm me if you see things getting derailed in serious forums. I heard W&C was becoming a mess but I don't read that forum much so I don't know the specifics of it. either PM or report post, whatever.

generally I'll just hide the post and ask the poster to stop being a knob, so it's not like you'd be asking for a ban or even infraction.

it isn't so much about getting everyone banned it's more about why is the admin and 1 other mod being so picky and selective about banning people he disagrees with under the guise of it being off topic they are unevenly enforcing the rules and 1 of the worst derailer's is on staff

It's not blatant derailing because it took you more than one irrelevant, low content, post to derail a thread? I'll remember that for future reference. :facepalm:

That being the case, why was Fang' banned for 'derailing' Equanimity's shitty H&S troll thread? Even though every post Fang' made referred to something that was either said in that thread, or the thread itself? In reality were tears shed because his posts may have been relevant, but they weren't parlour enough?

In contrast:

due to physicalicol problems

every1 be super nice to him ok?

physicalicol

Blatant derailing: First post after OP. Immediate derailment; may as well have typed 'Lrn2spl'. Too much of a passive-agressive prick to do that so just quoted instead.

Medical necessity, not physiological necessity.  I mean that's their verbiage, in my experience.

What treatments and medications would help people cope with this?  Could zombify them with hardcore drugs, but why would you?  They can lead full lives without that junk, so long's they get the HRT and surgeries they need.

there is not a medical need they body will continue to function perfectly healthy perhaps even more healthy than a body on HRT and surgeries

there are a lot of people that express improvements simply through counseling there isn't a 100% perfect treatment for any mental health illness at all

I'm kinda bored of this now.

way to make an entirely unnecessary spam post in a thread that has remained on topic  :tup:

I do what I can.

Wait no:



Blatant derailing: That's nice. Just as whipped cream has nothing to do with snowboarding, so Zek's tiredness has nothing to do with the topic at hand. He then doesn't even deny he's derailing; responds with sarcasm. Follows that up with a derailing shitpost.

...

Zek (And I've barely, barely scratched the surface) makes derailing posts that follow on from nothing, just as your "blatant derailing" example shows, because he knows that you will blindly excuse double standards as he's one of your 'very carefully picked' and 'professional' staff members who is 'nice'. Contrary to what you may claim, that's all that really registers on your radar. And why should he think otherwise? You gormlessly treat his 'cats n' hugs forum' suggestion seriously  whereas everyone else shat on the obvious wind-up, including Fang' who got the boot for his harshness, thereby proving to Equazek that you're a real Autisticus Maximus obsessed with 'parlour' behaviour.
