Guest Cancer Marney Report post Posted June 26, 2003 No, I made a conscious effort to get this reaction out of all of you. Whether you want to believe that or not is irrelevent, you're all just so predictable. 'k, as he himself admits, Banky is now in clear, absolute, and deliberate violation of TSM Rule #2: "Trolls will be automatically banned. Trolling is defined as the consistent posting of useless material with the intention of getting off-topic and specifically eliciting and inciting undesirable responses from users reading the thread." Nothing in the rules says that NHB is exempt in any case but flaming. This is not flaming. This is trolling. The rules call for an automatic and immediate ban. No warnings. No exceptions because he can be funny once in a while. Just a ban. My question is this: does anyone intend to enforce the rules? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest A.W. Stiffward III Report post Posted June 26, 2003 I must say that Marney makes a valid point. Upon joining this message board, I made sure to absorb the list of rules and policies that it wishes to uphold so I can say that this Banky fellow is indeed guilty of breaking one of these rules. My inquiry on the matter is, are the users on this message board whom are more well-known be treated with some sort of favortism? If that's the case, then I do feel that it serves no function to have these rules laid out in the first place, if they are to broken in certain cases.

Guest Bruiser Chong Report post Posted June 26, 2003 Yeah, d00d, it's too big. As for Banky, what can ya say? He's fessed up to liking the attention and has shown disapointment when it hasn't been given to him, so it's a tough call. Marney's got a point there, but it's up to the mods to make what will be a tough call either way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest HungryJack Report post Posted June 26, 2003 Like I've postulated before, Banky is happy when he's got people jocking him, and now that those people have movedo n, he feels the need to draw attention back to himself. Just get rid of him and his stable of usernames. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Bruiser Chong Report post Posted June 26, 2003 See now, I like that. I may seem bias because Banky and I don't get along in the least, but I always thought that the rules should apply to you, regardless of how long you've posted here or how well-known you are among the masses. Good job, guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Dames 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2003 As much as I liked Banky (I even e-mailed him), he knew the rules and if they (and myself as well) are to be respected, I couldn't let it continue. Dames Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Vern Gagne Report post Posted June 26, 2003 I never understood why Banky couldn't just be himself on this messageboard? The times that he did, he was fine. Why the need for the numerous posting gimmicks? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Bruiser Chong Report post Posted June 26, 2003 Anyone else find it a little funny that that's two somewhat well-known posters banned in the past couple of weeks due in some way to a "female" poster (I know Tiffani wasn't really a chick, but he Eyebrow got banned for insulting "her").

As clarified by Dames (who knew all along, with Dr. Tom and Jingus as well that I was Tiffani), Eyebrow was under the impression Tiffani was a girl. Plus, he was persona non grata around here previous to that. Combine those two powers against him and you've got a banning. I think we all know I wasn't necessarily offended by what he called me, but he asked for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted June 27, 2003 Why do I get the feeling that this is going to turn into a witch hunt? Who are you kidding? It's been that way for a while. Gee, how about Marney's ad hominem CE insults? How about the WWE goobers that annoy the puroheads? How about the snotty puroheads? (One down) What about FK Teale? What about me being mean to Metallica and Kotzenjunge? What about the various obvious unfunny gimmick posters that are here in droves? Surely we can't let any of THEM bombard our dainty homogenized messageboard with...whatever it is they're supposedly bombarding us with. one by stinking one, I say we dunk them in a freezing river or press them between rocks. There can be stonings and stake burnings on the weekends. I do hereby testify before you that I did see Marney consort with the devil, or with an imp of the devil, for which she recieved his dark majik in exchange for her service. She is of the underchrist, and must be tested forthwith. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Insane Bump Machine Report post Posted June 27, 2003 Trolling should be allowed in No Holds Barred. Otherwise you should rename the folder into Flaming HQ or whatever, if that's the only 'forbidden' thing you're allowed to do there. Just my 2 cents. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
