Your avatar does absolutely nothing. It’s not even clickable.

What you said was offensive to other members of this forum, so I edited it. Deal with it.  
Like I said, you’ve been warned.

I agree with EJ257FTW only because, who gives a fuck what he said, I’m sure no ones going to cry about his comments on Jews and whatever other thing he made a remark about…like he said too, the KKK smilies aren’t offensive?, and ok so Vlad is Russian, but the soviet smiley isn’t offensive to someone who wouldn’t take it as a joke? I don’t think there was a need to edit his post, and you said he was warned, warned for what…are you going to ban him? :🙂

I’m not being an asshole at all. The post was brought to my attention by someone who found it offensive, whom is neither black nor Jewish. It had nothing to do with his smilies, it was with what he said. I’m fine with anything said until it offends someone else. If you both have a problem with that, or thinking I’m ‘abusing my power’, it really is tough shit.

And I could care less about your header. After you said no, I was just fucking with you because I enjoy getting on your nerves. It was rather hilarious, if I say so myself.

He was warned because of the comment he made. I don’t know about the other mods on here, but I go by the three strike rule. What he said is his first strike. I have no problem banning him at all. If he contributed to this site, maybe I’d think twice.

Yes, lets!

Travis has been issued a one week ban, due to offending me, and a partial threat. So we don’t have to worry about him chiming in. Post has been deleted.

And by contributed, I meant in forms of information, not money.

Ban removed, this isn’t a dictatorship and nobody is going to jump the gun and ban somebody out of a personal matter.

The original comment being edited was approved by me because he was throwing a stack of bullets into a fire with a bad metaphor, when there could have been a million others to be used to express the same point.

**However** The rest of the actions were not, nor was his ban. If one member has a personal matter with another, take it out on AIM or in person, but banning somebody who you personally have a problem with, without the concent of other Mods and Admins is indeed abuse of the power.

So therefore, he is unbanned, and I do not want to see any more banning, untill at **the very least** it is run by me first, or I’ll remove the ban priveledge from mods.

I think its bullshit.

In the real world, if you would have said something as stupid as that, and somebody who WAS seriously offended, you probably would have had your fucking ass beat by a 300lb bodybuilding person of judaic descent. But you made the comment on a public forum, where there are BOTH jewish and black users. what you said had NO fucking place being said, whether or not it was in jest, or whatever your excuse was. The fact that you actually thought it was ok seems to be the underlying problem.

I don’t give a shit if you thought Cossey was trying to attack you on the for sale thread. HE didn’t go and make racial slurs and otherwise personal threats and slurs. The fact that you also made it personal by pointing out that he weighs more than the typical person is EXTREMELY childish. does it make you feel better making fun of a overweight person? Do you think that they don’t realize that?

I don’t think I have heard somebody throwing around weight jokes as a serious personal attack since 11th grade. I guess you haven’t socially graduated from the level yet.

In truth, I DON’T know you, have NEVER met you, so I have no personal “issues” with you. But they always say first impressions are the most important, and in that case, you pretty much just told me your nothing but a piece of shit who doesn’t take anyone else’s feelings into consideration. So good job on that one.
