However, this an opportunity to discuss the rules surrounding memes and image macros. Neither were image macros as there was no text on them. Neither are really memes because memes are, to my understanding, popular images with a sort of culture behind them. This was a photo of a Brood War coach, and a gif of one. People post photos of players all the time. I feel that my punishment was unjust, especially since I got the warning and the ban back to back and after both posts had been made. Then Seeker didn't answer my PMs. This is a great injustice. Fight with me on this! | ||

edit: it devolved into bs. i thought it should have been closed a while ago but i guess we're seeing how it plays out edit2: as egregious i think this is, i have to say i am impressed by the ability of the majority to suspend judgment. though it is not hard to sit on a fence | ||

Thus, there seem to be situations where the moderation decisions can be changed by good arguments. I have had civil and engaging conversations with Seeker before, most of which went nowhere. EDIT: Moataz has returned, and as a first order of business, bumped a thread of his which has seen no activity in over 2 months to say "You're welcome." I fear he is not long for this world. | ||

It's odd, but not really a problem yet, unless he starts bumping every other thread. | ||

xDaunt was just temp banned for 30 days by Seeker. That account was created on 2010-03-05 03:09:59 and had 16895 posts. Reason: I think TL needs a break from you. And just so you know, you're really skating on thin ice right now... There was a good while where there was good discussion in the US politics thread. Since xDaunt's return to that thread it had degenerated completely into xDaunt versus the world. The thread has been better the last couple weeks. | ||

Not to put a damper on your bloodlust, but he was back to posting and unbanned almost immediately. With an apology, but no explanation for the mistake. | ||

Yeah your post here is a consequence of the insane rules for that thread lol, all this attacking people over allegedly sketchy news sources or alleged conspiracy theorizing or allegedly not trying to understand the other side's perspective. that's all just ad hominem nonsense legitimized by the insane formal and informal rules Not just attacking them but saying things would be better if they were banned Geez Louise | ||

Don't use red text please. Why can we use the red color then?  No offense intended, I'm really curious.(also I am now fighting the temptation to make this in red but I am stronk!  )Anyway, gotcha, will stop it and use only green for JAGW (I'll also stop responding to that thread because of obvious reasons) Edit> While this is not a ban I don't think this should be taken into feedback or something, this is just me being curious and I believe this is the best thread to ask the question | ||
