the "Insanely named" part of that would have to be one word, but that's closer, yeah.

I'm thinking you'll never get the chance ....

For a second I thought this was the real name-change thread and thought "Crap, there goes another almost month of waiting..."

Glad I was wrong.

Why couldn't S-U-P-E-R have stayed a mod even if it was just for funhouse purposes?

Yes and no. Even though this isn't the "official" thread, it will most certainly be bumped now.

He has no one to blame but himself.

Political Penis's Religulous Funhouse
Where mods break rules without consequence and other get probation for not breaking rules.

As I said to you in a PM, the reason your consequence was so heavy is because you broke the rules TWICE in like 24 hours, and both times you obviously KNEW you were breaking the rules because you did silly things like spoiler tags and what not.

I'm sorry, but when someone knowingly breaks the rules, that's grounds for harsh punishment.

As for the damn animation thread, I didn't hand out any official warnings to anyone because of the mod involvement. And, obviously, that has nothing to do with your infractions.

Stratos · « **Reply #58 on:** August 28, 2009, 02:04:15 PM »

Whoa, BnM got infractions? In the Funhouse?! Wow.

Does no one smell contradiction besides me? I call for a FUNHOUSE BOYCOTT until either proper action is taken or until BNM is freed from "Note: this post will not display until it's been approved by a moderator." which was unjustly applied.

We Are Pale. You will bow to my godliness. Comply.

Pale · « **Reply #61 on:** August 28, 2009, 03:07:30 PM »

Jesus christ.... I RECOGNIZE THAT THE MODS BROKE THE RULES TOO BUT I CAN'T WARN THEM. THEREFORE I DIDN'T WARN ANYONE! THAT IS FAIR!

BnM, stop crying for something you had nothing to do with. AGAIN, it as a completely separate incident from yours.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #62 on:** August 28, 2009, 03:11:12 PM »

NO tears shed over here. That is a plainly obvious contradiction. It's ok to admit when you are wrong you know.

from a funhouse thread that didn't break any rules too. imagine that.

Pale · « **Reply #63 on:** August 28, 2009, 03:15:55 PM »

Ok, I would like the rest of the forums to decide if the following post breaks any forum rules... are you ready??

Quote from: BlackNMild2k1 on August 26, 2009, 02:56:34 PM

There is to be no discussion in this thread. only pics.

We'll start by asking a simple question. What does the picture in his post represent?

This is a forum exercise because if BnM can't get it, it must be complicated enough that others don't get it as well.

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #64 on:** August 28, 2009, 03:26:27 PM »

If posting that picture constituted knowingly breaking forum rules and you just knowingly posted it yourself even after another user got modded for posting it isn't that grounds for banning yourself?

Pale · « **Reply #65 on:** August 28, 2009, 03:30:00 PM »

You may be right insano, but I'm not asking for a political discussion, we are discussing the rules.

But yeah, my main failure here is letting BnM get to me... so let's end this crap.

BnM, because I'm such a fair guy I'll give you ONE MORE post in regards to the recent actions I took when it comes to moderation... just so you can have the last word.

After that if you mention the entire incident one more time I will temp ban you. I'm pretty fed up.

TUBA GIRL SAYS HI

that Baby guy · « **Reply #68 on:** August 28, 2009, 03:47:41 PM »

While I still think Pale is a failure, I believe that mostly for points and elaP related reasons, and not this particular set of actions.

BNM, you broke the rules. Clearly. And it was obvious you knew you were breaking the rules in both cases, and someone warned you in the first case, outside of moderatorship, but you still pressed it. The warnings were fair.

As in the second case, it likely works like this: Mods can't be warned. Cannot. The system doesn't support that. So it was either warn everyone but the mods that were involved in what they posted, or warn no one involved. It was a separate incident, and he still closed the thread, too, so it's not like he left his stinkin' paws out of there, either.

Also, who marches with a tuba? Where's the euphonium girl?

Plugabugz · « **Reply #69 on:** August 28, 2009, 03:48:49 PM »

I think the previous 5 posters should be punished by listening to Mariah Carey for an hour.

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #70 on:** August 28, 2009, 03:50:41 PM »

The lesson from this, then, is that since staff are above the law if you want to break the rules make sure you get a couple staff members to go along with you, and that way you can't be punished.

GoldenPhoenix · « **Reply #71 on:** August 28, 2009, 03:51:16 PM »

For the record there have been a couple of times where I disagreed with Pale's actions (not often though) but I did the appropriate thing and sent him a PM instead of making a big show about it on the forums.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #72 on:** August 28, 2009, 04:05:37 PM »

If this was to be fair, a joke pic saying "pics or it didn't happen" is not grounds for a locked thread or administrative punishment. THIS IS THE FUNHOUSE. If you have lost your sense of humor, then you should probably take a break from the funhouse as this was the section of the forums set up for us to go have some fun, bend a few of the rules and just generally not be so damn serious.

Its a thread of NON DISCUSSION centered around a theme that should not be discussed. Who doesn't see the humor in that? There was 0 (zero) discussion of religion or politics in that thread, but there were many funny pics surrounding the issue that could have been posted without any sort of discussion every breaking loose. I assume most of the people in here know how to have a little fun and how to joke around, otherwise they wouldn't be frequenting the FUNhouse anyway (see Ian).

And to regretfully quote Ned Holness (aka Carlos Mencia)
"If you can take a Dick you can take a Joke"

It's not a stab at your religion or anyone elses. It wasn't posted to drum up conversation. It was there as a joke, a thread to post pictures, comics, and videos & anything else someone thought funny that wasn't pushing a discussion.
I mean one of the 1st replies were

& I find that funny.

My next reply was gonna be:

and there was always room for a
http://www.explosm.net/db/files/Comics/Matt/jesus-is-a-pretty-bad-backseat-driver-too.png

but the thread never got a chance to go there, because we're being moderated like a bunch of immature 13 year olds that would post erecting penises that ejaculate..... oh wait.... but... but that was the mods.

Why do we constantly have to hide our fun, this is where we were supposed to go to have it.

word.
