Longtime members being banned?

[ksabet]

I don't see getting banned as a badge of honor.

I have been here long enough to know that varying opinions is not enough to get you banned. It usually stems from abuse and improper use of the forum.

No matter if you love or hate Leon, agree or disagree with his integrity, as decent people we owe it to ourselves to not stoop to threats and abuse.

Call me over sensitive or a panderer, but I am saddened by the state of the world sometimes and feel as though we don't need to reflect the negativity and discord on a message board.

i have zero issues w/ leon. i take it as a badge of honor from other forums though.

1. for instance when you get the boot for quoting someone that said "don't be a dick", yet you edit it to read: "don't be a d!ck" and you end up getting the boot.

2. for telling someone that they are immoral for giving advice to slide in after an auction is over and try and offer a higher price to the seller. no curse words there either.

basically that other mod has a tampon in, but it's inserted up the wrong hole.


never go looking for trouble, but am not afraid to firmly say what i believe. if the boot gets applied, oh well...

again, it's a forum full of dudes talking about cardboard. it's not the end of the world as some pretend it to be.


i know people have given leon shit in the past, but at least he's got a level head in the gavel department.

I second seablaster's 'nuked the fridge'. 'Nuked the fridge' is my generation's 'jumped the shark'. The day I saw that movie, aka the worst day of my life, it felt like I was watching George Lucas himself turn to the camera and flip me off for a good 5 minutes. I think I would have preferred to see that instead of what I actually saw...
