Ding ding ding, we have a winner. You don't get banned for being a productive, nonoffensive member of the forums. Whether or not a user gets/stayed banned is up to the admins. If a user wants to get back in the forums, he should plead his case to the admins, not try to dodge the bans.
Bans are not temporary in nature. This is similar in nature to being expelled from school for bad behavior, then changing your name and trying to get back in next year. Perhaps a formal meeting with the principal would be more effective, instead of just irritating more people by coming back anyway, masquerading as the victim of some sort of injustice?

Bean I think deserves to be banned for a week or so, a warning ban of sorts. He's part of the problem, IMHO.

MOP had a good post with a few valid ideas but 3 pages worth of flaming and debate is not going to help or hurt his point. This is going to turn into more and more flaming and people are going to get more and more pissed.

The voice of reason has spoken. Locked.

Yes, that's sort of what I said. An asshole is usually a character in a community, someone people remember. Think of it this way - if you're an asshole in a community full of assholes like you, you're less likely to be remembered.

I'm unlocking this topic so MoP can make one last post, because he asked me to. Then it's going to be locked again.

Alright.

Firstly, thank you for reposting this, 87x, but it really wasn't necessary. I would have reposted it if you had given me until the next morning.


Now that I look back on this thread, however, I'm really fucking sorry for all the shit that's been given to you since you've become an admin, Arch, but some of the stuff you do... well, asks for it (even though some of the stuff you're accused of doing might not be your fault, we accuse you for it anyway). And I'm sorry for this thread being reposted.


I don't see why the bullshit posts can't be deleted and this be left unlocked... but at this point, I'm not sure I don't want this thread re-deleted. And I know my opinion doesn't even matter too much, because I'm not a mod nor am I an admin, nor will I ever be (and I don't even want to any more... me being modded/adminned would cause an FFRmageddon).


By the way, in case anyone is wondering, FFR wouldn't be considered a dictatorship, it would be an oligarchy. "Ruled by an elite ruling class."
(I'm sure at least 50% of the people reading this have to tell themselves that they knew that, or at least what 'oligarchy' means, even though they didn't, because they have to overcompensate for their 2-inch penis.)



Sorry for this whole fucking mess, everyone (especially Arch).

And yes, this is an end to the Anti-Arch rebellion. If anyone wants to take up the torch they can, I guess, but it's pointless because the admins can do pretty much whatever they damn well please. I can't believe it's taken me this long to realize that.
