Obviously, everything is done for a reason. He had reasons to do his things, just like I have reasons to have done mine.

All out in the open, aired out and time to move on. [to the next drama of rules being broke, not enforced fairly, “why am I banned”, Vlad is a nazi communist etc] :vlad

How can you tell people to follow rules when they are so loosely enforced? That or they are only enforced on those you see/feel are a threat to your very own popularity (ie Benny, singh, Lksi, etc etc)

And again, good call on separating yourself from members people like (redwgn) with bullshit comments like the one above. What are you going to ban him for? Did he call you a doo doo head?

Quick story.

Awesome local bar/resturant is purchased by a guy. Guy tells locals he doesn’t want the “local riff raff” in there. Locals say, go fuck yourself, business dies. Different bar opens, no one looks back. That concludes our lesson on capitalism.

What’s funny is for everyone that bitches and whines about the site and rules (including myself at times) we all still come back and continue to post and if not post as much they still lurk on this site…sooooo with that being said, who really gives a fuck? :dunno

Ok, seriously? Let’s touch on something here.

I got harped on by Vlad for years with his whiny bullshit for the dumb shit I’d do (messing with people’s profile, changing sigs, changing people’s posts, etc.), but any time those things were done, it was pretty well known that it was me, because I fucking said it was. I took full responsibility for those actions, and had to listen to Vlad about how “we’re a representative of the site” and blah blah blah whatever, no matter how hilarious and well received they were.

Now, JVG is straight up spewing hate at people in private messages and rep, like, actual hateful shit. Singh is obviously offended by those direct personal attacks, and makes them publicly known. By not taking action against that member of the mod staff \*, you are essentially supporting those types of actions. Something neither I, nor several other “OG” members would have ever said or done.

That speaks volumes about the site and certain members of it’s staff’s integrity, much more-so than me posting incestual mutual masturbation stories with the names changed to yours and JVG’s. Pretty despicable, bro. But who am I to judge?

Also, the fuck is up with my last ban? Shit was for like a month, and then because someone else started a “free benny” that hates on you a bit and you push my ban out to february? I didn’t even participate in that motherfucker. Shit, ni99a.

So everyone is yelling RULES RULES STRICT CONSISTANT ENFOREMENT? Owner, Admin, Mod or simpleton alike.

Is that the end to this thread?

Thats a great idea. And I like that.

HOW ABOUT YOU ALL MAN UP AND POST YOUR SUGGESTION ON HOW THE RULES SHOULD BE?

A wise bannanataker once said “If your not a part of the solution, your apart of the problem!”

How can traffic tickets exist when not everybody gets pulled over?

And even when people do get pulled over hot chicks and cops will never get a ticket.

How can traffic tickets possibly work???

:facepalm

We got a few people managing hundreds of posts a day, we dont see everything every time. And even when we do, doesn’t mean that everybody will get the same punishment, depending on your past history, your attitude and how we feel. Just like when you’re pulled over.

That’s just life. Deal with it.

Nobody likes getting tickets, so stop fucking speeding.
