You're pathetic. If the joke picks at a scab you're cool with, have at it. If the public outcry is to chill it, you become a ****ing politician and puff your chest.

Pathetic.

He already told you that post was listing grievances, not saying that insulting your wife was acceptable.

Really? Before today, with Hawk (who was just used, let's be clear here, as a sacrificial, um, hawk), who have you either banned or warned other than Chula or myself? Batty was banned but I think that was Exo. Your bias shows always.

Take the job a little more seriously, rather than an opportunity to throw your weight around when you feel like it.

Also,



This is why you're hard to take seriously.. You are literally the biggest offender of personal attacks. Instead of PMing a mod or politely explaining your grievances to others you immediately go the the throat and then cry foul play. Stop pretending your innocent. Shoulda stopped at "Why?".
This is, I would venture to guess, WHY he gets so annoyed. Double standards. Anyone can slag off his wife with all sorts of language but when he does it it's "cool it Chula". Jesus ****ing Christ on toast! Have you any idea how hypocritical and biased you sound, DWV??

"Most Banned Member 2018". Guaranteed. He might even look for an avvy of a hammer.

When Occult makes fun of your wife I don't think it's with the intent of hurting your feelings (if he does hurt your feelings than that's a problem and a time when the mods should step in). When you tell people to STFU and call them ****ing *******s you seem to genuinely feel that way. Big difference.

How's the saying go? You should be worried when we stop joking with you? Something like that..
I'm not quite sure how to take that. How do I act? Is this good or bad?

Exactly. Had this been in a normal thread no way was Hawk getting banned. You just did that to prove a point, and appeal to public opinion. You are Trump.

I honestly can't see how a simple rule can't be followed. It is IN THE RULES, after all: NO PERSONAL ATTACKS. Of course, you have to look at the tone in which those comments are made - Batty made what could be taken as very insulting/dirty comments about my sister and my mother, but I know he doesn't mean it, so I take no offence. But Hawk seems to mean what he says, at least a little, and doesn't know when to back off. This should not be tolerated.

I wonder if the ban is going to do anything at all though? Who'll bet on Hawk being exactly the same when he flies back in? You see, maybe some new mods, young blood, whatever, might see things differently. Some people do appear to be so stuck in their ways and unwilling to shake up the status quo that nothing gets done. Maybe someone with the guts to, not ban, but at least throw in a few timely warnings when needed, might be good.

I'd vote for Monkey, personally. I think he's very fair, knows where the line is and would be a great addition to the team, if you're hiring. MicShaz too, and not because he's my mate. He's shown some clear-headed thinking that has impressed me. And why isn't Steph a mod, eh? Could you think of anyone better who isn't already one?

I've banned YorkeDaddy and some trolly newbs but I don't really keep a track record. Some warnings have been done in threads and via PM. Is there anyone else I should have banned?

EDIT: Oh pretty sure I've banned Kiii too.

OH was was rightly banned and after months of discussion in the modcave. The public outcry was part of it, but it was his post about Chula's wife yesterday that got him banned. Idk, do you guys want me to not listen to you or enforce the rules next time? Seems strange to demand something only to get upset once it's done for you.

Yeah that's ridiculous. Now you're just over-compensating and flinging the banhammer around like an Olympic hammer thrower. So calling someone pathetic is an insult now, is it? You know damn well that's not the case, and that bans are supposed only to be enforced for serious infractions like Hawk made. People call each other names here all the time: you going to ban all of them too? If Chula was banned, then DWV should be banned, and I guess I'm on the list too. You want to be left here alone? Then, I guess, finally, you're in the company of likeminded people with the same IQ. This is typical of you.

Go ahead: ban me if you want. Be clear though: I'm not asking for nor enticing you into banning me, no goading here. But if you're going to apply the kind of black-and-white logic you've just used to ban Chula, then you may as well ban us all. You've swung entirely the other way, and don't tell me it's not to make a point. Your own words above prove that. Chula was right, you are pathetic. You've turned this into a personal attack on you, and now you're lashing out. What great mod material you are.

See you guys in a week, I guess. But Frown, if you ban me you're only proving that I'm right. Calm the hell down, huh? This original conversation was not aimed directly at you, but at mod behaviour in general. In your own words, quit taking everything so personally.
