It appears to have been made off the cuff to in order to address a "special situation", in my view.
Spin that as you want. This rule has been there for ages, and we considered it a minor rule break, not even warranting a staff warning given the circunstances. But you got butthurt and clinged to the fact that Shell is Tibs wife to accuse us of bias (in my land is called corruption and a serious accusation). Pretty normal considering that 99% of staff action is met with that indignated behaviour you are displaying for all to see. If you seek to clarify that rule better use the Complaints, Questions and Suggestion subforum to open a thread about your grievances.

Lel, if it didn't matter you wouldn't be bitchin about it. You would continue your discussion with Shell about whatever tha fuck you were arguing about. You and Thump for some reason decided to accuse the staff of bias. You did. Wich leads to:
Quote:This notion of an infallible "governing body" at AF that can NEVER be wrong, and must NEVER be questioned, and yes, yes, yes is always fair, just, and GOOD to be a bit disturbing, tbh. Must everyone believe that every single decision is made with absolute deference to to the values of virtue and fairness? That's insane, to me.
You all are human, correct?
Governing body. Ha! And we have made mistakes and I have apologized for my own. I once PUBLICLY apologized for an error I made about Jacob. Those that remember that episode know that I am human.
This is not the case you are making. You and Thump for some reason, in your argumentation called others integrity. For that I demand an apology. Don't give a fuck about your trades with Shell. Simple insults, as long there is argumrntation betwixt, are allowed. If a flame war continues, we might just have to split this dumbfuckery onto Rlyeh, because it has become more of a pride issue than real discussion. But that, needs consulting with all my peers. You accuse one of us, you accuse all of us. Because as you are ignorant about how we work. Sure errors might occur still, this is not the case.
