Two Rule Updates

[robvalue]

Fucking awesome. Excellent job guys! I really appreciate this

It makes me feel a whole lot better.

I think we should make an exception for EP, though. I mean, how is he supposed to manipulate and abuse people and get away with it now?

How about: if people want us to know personal information, and want everyone to know about what they said to you in private, they tell us themselves? We don't need you as some sort of messenger service. We all know exactly who and what you are, so it's time to give it up. I'm actually glad you're sticking around here, where everyone knows the only reason you're here is to fuck with people, so that no one is going to fall for it. I'd rather that than you went on to another unsuspecting bunch of people on another forum. So keep firing those blanks at us. No one is suggesting your previous posts are going to be reconsidered under the new rule, so quit whining persecution. If you can't discuss things without disclosing private info, you've got bigger problems than I thought.

Any chance of instituting a rule whereby members who have had a sensible rule explained to them five different times in short, simple words and then still bitch that it isn't clear could be given a smack?

I dub thee "smacker of whiny little bitches."

New rule: Don't be a cunt!
Also, don't be a dick!

Essentially, be a decent human being and remember that your freedom ends when other peoples' freedom begins.

See? not so difficult

Good job on the update of the doxing rule, guys.
And yeah... the ONI was too subjective to ever be used... might as well ditch it.

Thank you for updating the rules. This was definitely the right move to clear up what the staff's position was.

[Faith No More]

You will want to include all this additional information in the rule, I think, given the nature of the punishment for it.

I see perfectly well what is happening here, if we are being blunt. No other member than me, in principle, is expected to be banned as a result of it.

Ban away, my friends. Given the amount of crucial information apparently missing from this rule's body, despite its mere absence from there being misleading, I'm sure you will find a reason to ban me that isn't explicitly stated in that rule and then rectify it accordingly. Seems like a lot of trouble to go to in order to covertly induce one member in error to then be able to ban them, if you ask me, but whatever swells you people's senses of greatness, I suppose.

Oh my god, get the fuck over yourself.

I did some thinking and I completely agree with the new rule, as well as with people's opinions of me for having done such egregious things that the rules needed to be changed just for me. That is unnacceptable and it amazes me that I'm still here to say it. Thank you for a great job, staff. I am already happy with the way things are going and I suspect that will only increase in the future. I am a horrible person and the more this community makes me realize that the better for everyone involved.

We don't change rules just for one person.

[Kernel Sohcahtoa]

Excited Penguin, IMO, you can't hold yourself hostage to other peoples' emotions and behavior; if everyone did this, then we'd all label ourselves as bad people and be miserable as a result.  We've all had our slumps and moments of failure, which have always been powerful tools for learning and growth; embrace them and never be afraid of them.  Just be who you are and let that shine in your posts.  Be an eagle, not a pigeon. Live long and prosper.

Not bad, but you apparently can't resist slipping in some passive-aggression under the mask of civility. It's good, but it's not quite Carling.
