[Neoteny]

Point made, Juan, but poorly.

[clapper011]

[DaGip]

now juan....continue and i WILL lock them..

If I posted all these threads on the Off Topics board, I would be sitting in CC spam prison for the next three months!

[Juan_Bottom]

I got a hard core warning... A final warning....
I never even got a first warning...
And now I'm on my last chance....

Yes, I know.

Wow... so... still defending the moderation?

You're bastage.

Just defending Clapper's locking practice I suppose......

[Ditocoaf]

Juan? I'm sad. I signed that list, but with clarification and an objection. Now you're lumping me in with the complainers?

[Pedronicus]

Juan - you epitomize the 'look at me' idiot that requires moderators to lock threads down. I wish you would create less threads, because you bore the pants off me.

[Dancing Mustard]

That's a fairly harsh thing to say.


Sure, Juan makes a lot of threads. But at least his 'genuine conversation' ones have some thought put into them, they're not just copypasta "Here's a story about a member of social group X doing a bad thing! Please infer some wider point from this. Out.". He's no where near 'boring', especially compared with some of the other mouth-breathers that have blighted this forum in the past cough extra cough tabasco cough.

Yes, perhaps the latest "screw you mods" spam wasn't so well executed as a protest might have been. But no need to go blowing up at the guy over a single incident. Give it a couple of hours and it'll all be buried under other threads.

Come on Big P, increase the peace in here; we have enough problems as it is, it don't need no brothers killing brothers this season.

Thing is, it wasn't a "screw you mods" spam it was a "screw you people who appose the mods and their decisions" spam.

I think it was more of a "screw you people who oppose the mods in an ineffective and whiney way." While I may disagree with his appraisal of the referred to thread as ineffective, I do agree with him that it was needlessly whiney. There are much better ways he could have made his point, and that thread was very disappointing, but he definitely wasn't being a "look at me idiot" or boring.

Well, this thread didn't start off as just this thread... It started off as about 5 different ones, I believe....

[Ditocoaf]

ah... that's even worse. But that makes me think... some people on that petition have spammed in a similar way to protest mod decisions... He's just doing the same back at us, so we can see how it just pisses us off instead of getting the point across.

[Dancing Mustard]

See... valid and thoughtful. It's what he's all about.

OH SNAP! Slightly mean words about a DBCer. It's on now. We need to settle this one in the ring! Your choice of the following:

A) Naked Pin the Tail on the Donkey (You Are The Donkey, and You Are the Naked One)
B) Clan War
C) Tank Wars the Drinking Game Version Tournament
D) Beirut Tournament
E) Bickering about this endlessly on the fucking internets.

I hope that isn't true...perma ban for starting threads?????

[clapper011]

never told him perma...don't assume boys...

[Ditocoaf]

oh, okay. just a last warning before a normal, temp ban? That seems fair. I was a little scared for Juan's well being for a sec.

Is it my choice?

That wasn't quit what I was going for ...

Me too...
I've only ever recieved one informal warning afore(cpurcell!!!), so I didn't know what a "final warning" even ment at first...
