True there are ways around it and it's been done before but in the end they almost always get cault and banned again just by being stupid again.

 

 

As I said, I can't see why he would want to come back after such a disaster from before. If he came back and wanted to contribute...he'd have to take on an entirely different persona and drop the "resident asshole" attitude he took for himself. He spoke his mind and didn't care what anyone thought. I doubt he could reign that in to hide behind a new account. Don't see this forum interesting him THAT much.

A girl drives her car too fast and gets pulled over by the cops. When he asks to see her license, she slaps the cop in the face. He arrests her and she goes to jail. It doesn't matter at that point whether or not she was speeding or if jail time is too strict a punishment for speeding.

Similarly, if you directly mess with the rules or a mod, even if it's an e-slap in the face to him, you get banned.

At least that's how I see it. *shrug*

Breaking the law and breaking forum rules are quite different, imho
:idk:



In terms of real world significance, sure...But so are the consequences...

It's not like Catphish sent him to jail. He banned him from the forum. You break the rules (and in DS's case, grossly flaunt one of the few "autoban" rules), you face the consequences.


It sometimes needs to be repeated. This isn't a democracy, this isn't a republic. The forum doesn't belong to the community. It's a privately owned an operated meeting place, and the rules are the rules.

If someone doesn't like it, they can go start their own forum (AG did, and he was a former mod :D).

frickin' catphish...
:mad:

 

{censored} that. DS was a productive member here, but he couldn't just sit out the temp ban. There's no excuse for being that stupid about it, and my guess is that he's not that stupid, and just didn't want to be here any more. Wouldn't be the first guy to go out with a bang.

I personally didn't see it that way. He wasn't just posting to say "Catphish sucks", he kept trying to argue his position, posting links as evidence, making an argument, as if by convincing people on the Drum forum (where he posted) a popular upswell would cause Catphish to be overruled from above.

 

The problem was, as has been the case in the past, he demonstrated an inability to control his emotions, and specifically, to prevent his emotions from driving his insulting, belligerent behavior.

 

It's just that this time he directed his assault against someone who could do something about it.

Stupid is making multiple alts. Especially if they're essentially the same name with a number after it. As if nobody is going to notice.

 

The only attention this will get from Admin is reinforcement for being perma-banned. If you want to argue your case, you send email to admin. Making your case by breaking more rules is like trying to convince a judge you aren't guilty of murder by breaking into his house to meet with him.....

Well that's just it. He wasn't trying to be "sneaky" or anything.

 

I read that as his attempt to say "see, I'm not hiding because I'm right, and this is why I'm right" (and then following up with his links and such)...

Remember the guy who went out by posting a ton of hardcore porn pictures a handful of years back? That was a riot. He picked a good time too, because it was a while before the mods got to it.
