We had a thread with that. I don't think it's ground we need to revisit.

quote monster?

aww....

[nickmitch]

You can stop trying.

[Stratos]

No, No! Naughty naughty pokepal! What have I told you about keeping your pet quote monster on a tight leash? It poops on my lawn one more time and I'll call Forum Control to come put it down.

[pokepal148]

part of me wants to continue it but nah

[nickmitch]

You're becoming a better poster everyday.

[Khushrenada]

So why isn't S-U-P-E-R unbanned? It's been 7 days. I sense a foul plot is afoot.

[BranDonk Kong]

Sounds like a question for Doctor Video Games.

[Doctor Video Games]

I ain't know nothin

[Khushrenada]

Let's look at the facts. All S-U-P-E-R did was edit one of his own posts. It's not like he edited someone else's post. Even in the rules that have been reposted, there's nothing there about not being able to re-edit one's posts. Since when is that a crime? What? Are we not allowed to edit anything anymore? Big brother is going to determine what we can and can't say?

And if you are going to argue that it is because he edited a post that was used for explaining forum behaviour, I would like to point out that he isn't even on staff so it was extremely neglegent of the current staff to use someone else's postings like that instead of actually using a post from staff. Heck, Svevan could theoretically come back some day and re-edit some of his stuff and cause some chaos too. Why? Because the forums have been left exposed to this. Even BlackNMild2k1 has a post about how to use these forums properly. He could easily change it up one day also. This is what happens when the staff rely on the forum users to do things instead of themselves. Yet, when the forum users do something they don't like, they turn on them. Can't have it both ways now guys. Frankly, S-U-P-E-R should be getting some commendation for exposing such a potential problem in the forums.

Your witness.

[pokepal148]

wait did somebody other then super (an admin) say 7 days because he could have just said that to @#$% with us.

I suspect based on previous experience that the system is automated...

[TJ Spyke]

pokepal, every forum I have known lets a moderator/admin select how long a ban lasts.

[pokepal148]

yes but have the mods stated it would be 7 days, i suspect he was gone for 10 and he said 7 to cause more trouble

@Khushrenada i also learned a month ago that if a thread is locked the original poster can still put up polls no problem, don't think they fixed that either although it isn't as big an issue

[UncleBob]

I was not involved with the initial ban, but I will clarify, it was always a ten-day ban, so far as I saw.

[Oblivion]

What the hell even happened?

[Khushrenada]

The word I get from S-U-P-E-R is this:

"My ban date said it expired on the 10th, and then that day it jumped to the 16th. Also banning me during E3? Ice cold! God damn!"

So, that's my client's testimony.

[Fatty The Hutt]

Insano, unclebob, Crimm, you know I love you guys, but this super ban thing is kind of bullshittery. End it. You're losing your cred.


Edit- you don't want to end up like the Turkish government, do you

[NWR_insanolord]

I didn't do it, and UncleBob said he didn't either. I don't want to go behind another mod's back and overturn his decision.

Your witness.

but on the other hand he could have just put a header saying that he was able to edit it and the mods should fix it...
and if im not mistaken he was staff..

[Khushrenada]

First of all, he is not staff.

And second, my client had no reason to change his message until the time came where he suddenly realized he wanted to change it and had the power and means to do so.

Yet, according to you, he was somehow supposed to know that one day he would want to change his post in the future for an event that hadn't occurred in order to make a statement and get the staff's attention on it and before any of that happened, it was his responsibility to get the staff's attention to fix this potential problem to prevent him from making any such edit that he hadn't thought of and tell them how to do their job and make them aware of this error of what was a non-issue at the time?!?! Really?!?!

And therefore, by your reasoning, he was banned because he just did that! He got the staff's attention to tell them about not only potential but current problems with the forum and how he thinks they should be fixing the forums, thereby telling them how to do their job like you think he should have, while raising the issue to a wider audience since people don't seem to be paying much attention to the NWR Discussion Forum thereby hopefully affecting the necessary changes to prevent future forum issues.

Your argument is flawed both ways but good luck arguing that case.

No more questions at present your honor.

[Khushrenada]

I didn't do it, and UncleBob said he didn't either. I don't want to go behind another mod's back and overturn his decision.

That reminds me of a famous quote:

First they came for the communists, and I did not speak out—
because I was not a communist;

Then they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—
because I was not a socialist;

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—
because I was not a trade unionist;

Then they came for me—
and there was no one left to speak out for me.”

Glad to know you feel it was wrong. Wish you would speak up as well. After all, you may need someone to speak up on your behalf someday. First they came for S-U-P-E-R. Who's next? Or are you willing to speak up and speak out?

[oohhboy]

Beautiful. I think I heard my National anthem while reading that.

[pokepal148]

First of all, he is not staff.

WAS!!! staff,  learn to read

He could have just edited it and then reported it...

[Doctor Video Games]

Aren't you the community manager? 

[nickmitch]

What if the PEOPLE want; nay, demand; the decision overturned??
