Can't trust those fuckers.


ROFL

Schrodinger's Cat, meet Schrodinghammad's Cat. Big Grin

1st cat, 50% chance it dies. 2nd cat, 50% chance EVERYONE dies.

That's a much more realistic depiction of cats, IMO.

The ONI rule is for people who purposefully and skilfully skirt the rules, making it extremely hard to take action, while causing a lot of real damage.

It's meant to be a last resort, to plug any remaining gaps in the rules. We can't cover absolutely everything. We can't predict exactly what some maniac might do in the future. So we have a way of making sure that we can deal with such people, if it gets really serious. Hopefully one of the other rules will cover it. If so, great. If not... you want them fucking up the whole forum while we try and write a new rule for whatever insidious crap they are doing?

As Losty said, we've never used it since setting it up. I hope we never do. It's quite possible we won't. It's certainly not there to try and generally shut people up who are disagreeing with us. Anyone who feels that way has things completely wrong, I can assure you. People are welcome to disagree with us all day long.

I would have voted to use the ONI option exactly once: DespondentFishDeathMachismo.

Every other instance anyone could think of, I would have voted against, therefore killing the vote.

Before anyone suggests it, he who shall not be named broke so many other rules that ONI would not have been an option.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

I doubt we will ever use it, to be honest.

It's like an emergency containment procedure for a new kind of disease we have no idea how to deal with. You'll be really glad it's there on the off chance it's needed.

We could always use it for getting rid of someone we don't like that hasn't done anything wrong. :-)

I can just do that anyway. A couple of clicks and someone is banned.

I just wouldn't get away with it abuse my power like that.

Anytime someone protests about "unfair treatment" I just wanna permanently ban their ass immediately. Sure it would prove them right when they're wrong as fuck which is why it is so annoying but at least I would enjoy screaming "FUCK YEAH!" and dancing about like a fuckturtle. I'm a very calm and levelheaded staff member and that's why I make a good mod.

Eh?

Dude, you can't do that.  You have to provide the name, or watch us cats all die of curiosity.
