I think the reason why it has not been allowed on tl and allowed on lp is well
mensrea was sorta the person who made us aware of the illegality in that kind of stuff. and TKWL is the only one who has really bothered cleaning up based on it. neither have any position on LP.

I think thats basically it.

Well what Nony wants would only be possible if there would be a moderated and a not-moderated part of tl.net. So the mods only had to read every post in a section and not in every thread.
But I don't know if this is a good idea or not. It would make the other part of the forum (the unmoderated) go to hell quickly.

Or they could make a part which is closely observed where they would
ban for evey offense and moderate the other parts the same as before. But this would only mean more work

Awww. Should've seen it coming--I mean his posts aren't nuked--but after nony's first defense of his criticism of that soccer guy I was sure he was going to get banned in this thread.

Not that I was hoping for it, in fact I do think nony's criticism (or flame) at most deserved a warning, and that his banning was a matter of doing the wrong this to the wrong person (talking in a negative light about anything soccer--a sport that I find utterly boring and stupid ahahaahha and thusly think badly of it and insult it and its players--to LD).

Hahaha. I keep switching back and forth here. Because I also think that temp banning is no big deal, and should really almost never be complained about to administration. 'Cuz you guys (admins) aren't any better than anyone in real life, and complaining to you about what you did sort of lends you credence. Not that you should just temp ban people, but that if you have a defendable reason for doing so, which he did, that should really be the end of it.

Heh, strange and not very lucid thoughts above, but I'm under time constraints here. RRRWWWOOOOOAAAARRRR!!!!

you complaining about being banned for it makes little sense, because the rules were posted in the very same topic before you linked isohunt.

i'll gladly admit that we're not always consistent. but 3 people had pointed out that asking and responding wouldn't be tolerated before you posted it.


yeah I guess that wasn't so harsh since the rule was posted in the same thread. What I remember being unreasonable was the follow-up inquiry on why he was banned. http://teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=27319

Mensrea banned me because I wrote that IMO Boxer vs Joyo game was totally overhyped and actually not that interesting when compared to other games (no pace really, bank terran, map mined out, predictable late game etc). Then he unbanned me and left or something

I was temp-banned for using the word nigger

I also believe that there is absolutely no way of speaking about immigration on this website, because you get immediatelly labelled as racist and banned. I just believe that melting pot doesnt work. (to cover the failure it was changed to multikulti, which still does not work)

I was told that we all should worship Ahur . I just believe he is overhyped too, he made an inferior no-cd crack, which he managed to market well (it's like most of the people would love microsoft or something and someone who believes something else would get flamed).

this website is becomming more and more populist. I won't mention the names, but they just post short one-liners, which maybe sound cool, but are untrue
I have returned

I disagree with that, because I believe it can be discussed here (if you do so maturely and objectively, because I, in part agree with a little of what you're saying). The problem with the thread you got banned is the fact you were being BLATENTLY RACIST. There is a difference between objective discussion and outright racism.

i think the balance between random stupid threads/replies and genuine, on topic discussion is pretty great here at TL. its one of those rare communities where you can actually relate to your mods see their personalities and reason with them--they are not just robot police. it\'s a unique interaction between those with power and those without, and while of course it\'s not perfect and abuse will happen, in other forums and the outside world it rarely happens as smoothly and nicely as it does here. here, the mods actually listen, post, and accept opinions of others to a degree i\'ve never seen elsewhere. it\'d be easy and sadly more normal for them to just dismiss your opinion and call it wrong, but the guys in red are dead on in their assessment of situations the vast majority of the time. it has something to do with the fact that the mod team is significantly older and more mature than the general forum going crowd, but honestly i think its also because they\'re just nice, reasonable people, and what can you say other than that naz and the other site founders have an extremely good nose for selecting good people to moderate.

of course you can\'t expect all posts to be perfect, that\'d take away from TL\'s ability to morph from serious discussion into crazy silliness (you know you enjoy it). while most of my posts are intended to be funny and i come here mainly to laugh and relax with the other cool users that post here, i do participate in serious discussion at times. i\'ve flamed and trolled a good amount too, mainly towards stuff (hopefully) that is warranted, like my posting 18 fake CD-Keys in a stupid request post, or pretending to be someone obsessed with APM in a stupid apm thread, etc. i\'ve made that e-money ID to post those emo nerd blog posts, which i still to this day think are hilarious, and i\'ve also made an account called ganesh to quote and advocate cows.

just take liquiscoop for example, me and intothewow and dronebabo have a ton of fun making that each week, and we could make it absoutely ridiculous and circus like, but in my opinion it represents us to our peers--wow i never thought i\'d be considering people i\'ve never met my peers and value their opinions so much--and this is when TL.net becomes awesome, when you actually become part of the community--BW or General or otherwise--and people actually remember your \"personality\" whether its real or not. i realize that not everyone wishes or comes here to be that involved, but that\'s why i feel TL is worth it to me. without that, who cares what score you get in liquibet or how cool that rA build was last week or why whoever made a hilarious or embarassing or stupid post?

that\'s also why i believe in the leeway thing, because i certainly didn\'t anticipate caring that much when i started posting here. my first ID even got banned for making this pretty racist ridiculous joke post a few years back, and ever since i decided that i was here for a while i think i got tempbanned once for like a day or something. ok i\'ve rambled for many paragraphs now but i think that the mods do a great job. yeah great rah rah.

edit: and on the subject of very longtime posters getting to do/say whatever they want, i think that's true to a degree, but Stimey is a prime example of someone's personality changing and eventually leading to a ban... nobody is really safe but you get so many chances its hard to screw up that much.
