Night of the Long Knives?

[Lingchih]

Just lock this thread, Annette. I started it, and I request it be locked. I do not think it should be deleted though.

You know, the real problem here is that Truman, Frozen and Squirrell are all in the Cripple Fight game. This doesn't bode well for me. NAP, guys?

It looks like one group of users attacked another with support of admins then. And admins , having got "numerious examples" of Sombre's misbehavior were in such a rush, that didn't want to waste time of temporary bans. You are busy people. Hope you get payed for it. And hope it's nothing "personal" in what I say. Admins is a role in a community. I hope we are allowed to discuss it as well, as customers.

Meh I think the complaining here is going way overboard.

It seems pretty clear that annette was a little too hasty with the ban-hammer. And I think she would to better to leave the door open in case Sombre calms down and agrees to behave himself.

But to call Annette a liar and big brother and a nazi and whatever is just silly. Can't we try to all be a little more respectful?

If I reported people's posts every time they pissed me off... well, in the future no more words, since apparently those count less than clicking on forum widgets.

Though a lot of posts of users are not always very mature (but what you would expect from those who play games?), sometimes childish and aggressive, and mod's replies are more structured, when someone whose friend was hit buy a big club is screaming, it worth sympathy. He has no club, and it is natural not to love those who have and who find ways to justify use of it instead of finding all means to forget about it.

I believe forum needs admins who can rule with sense of humor and charisma rather than headcutters armed with ability to cast bans and terror. It's a community, not an army.

It was a hammer, not a club. Clubs are for seals, hammers are for trolls.

"-10 points oh noes"
'[the penalty] means as much to me as forgetting to buy milk at the grocery store.'

[Foodstamp]

What is the -10 point thing anyway? Is there a way we can check this in our profile?

[Frozen Lama]

nope. its more of the super secret forum justice system. when you get to 100 you get permabanned.
