bob_barron Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 And yet you didn't oppose banning VanHalen. And what got him banned in the end was bumping old threads. Van Halen bumps old random threads in a failed attempt to be funny. Douchebag has done his share of that. Douchebag at least attempts to add to the topic at hand. It's really a matter of board policy and are we going to do that. There is nothing in the rules about "sucking" or not being well liked by posters and moderators as a reason for banning. Shouldn't Douchebag be suspended first before he's banned anyway?
Guest C*Z*E*C*H Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 The ombudsman brings up a good point: in my efforts to keep the rules condensed and concise, I didn't leave any loopholes to ban for sucking, which was why the Vanhalen ban was overturned. Even though there's no rule that prohibits sucking, we do have a precedent for suckbans. I've always said during my tenure on the staff that I don't want to take away the privilege of posting here away from anybody here, but in all fairness, that was before Deon decided to go political.
bob_barron Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 The VanHalen banning was overturned? Damn.
tekcop Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 I seriously thought the political thread in the WWE folder was easily the least worst thread Deon's ever made.
Cheech Tremendous Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 There should be a rule that prohibits sucking. I know that it's really hard to define what constitutes "bad" but if you are unable to contribute to the community in any positive manner over an extended period of time the staff should have the right to remove you. I'm not saying that there should be free reign for knee-jerk bans to people that aren't well liked, but if the community at large finds nothing redeemable, ship them out.
Guest C*Z*E*C*H Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 A rule against sucking would make me ban myself. I think it gets a little scary to be on the lookout for "sucking" so we can ban people basically at will. Counterpoint: Deon has been awful for well over five years.
Guest cobainwasmurdered Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 If I add a rule that says "We'll ban you if you suck really really hard" will bob shut up forever?
bob_barron Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 If I add a rule that says "We'll ban you if you suck really really hard" will bob shut up forever? I'm the ombudsman, so no, I'm not going to not point out and argue bans that I don't think are justified.
Lt. Al Giardello Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 Ban that faggot. I'm tired of seeing him bashing Rampage for no reason in the MMA folder.
Gary Floyd Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 Jane Doe gave me Melissa's card, you NOOB. The funny part is Melissa didn't know who I was since she mistook me for her friend, Rocky, who she thought was going to be there. you NOOB you NOOB you NOOB you NOOB you NOOB
Guest Tzar Lysergic Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 Look, it's not like the guy's banned yet. EHME was under the same scrutiny and survived, he even improved. I believe in rehabilitation and second chances.
Ketamine Disaster Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 Deon Dark (born 30 November 1982) is an aspiring American actor known for his suave and witty demeanor. He is a smart, fun guy to be around with, who likes to smile and make others smile, usually with a laugh smile.gif Communication and honesty are important to him. He can deal with anything and fears nothing, except heights. A good listener as well a good advisor would also describe him. In his spare time, its been reported that he likes to go out alot. LOL, look at him go! I'd like to meet: Smart, sexy, strong, sexual, and sensitive. Beauty and brains. Deon Dark is attracted to women, who are independent and secure about themselves physically and emotionally. A woman who knows herself, what she wants and how to get it. He loves a woman who is not afraid to express herself and her desires. She is feminine and can still be assertive. She can laugh at herself, at him, and definitely at others. From shy to aggressive, lawyer to stripper, streetwise to Phd, he is attracted to that certain "?!" I believe that that alone should be suitable for the ban hammer.
Lil' Bitch Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 I am so sorry for ever making you all mad. I feel guilty for making you guys feel that way. I know it's my fault that I have pushed you away by telling you unfunny things in my posts. You don't care about me and you won't be bothered if I'm gone. This has made me realize what I need to change about myself. If I had another chance, I would try to my best not to ruin your day online. I thought at first maybe leaving TSM was for the best, but I can't just give up like that when I know there is so much to discuss. I just want to make it right and thanks for sticking up for me, Bob. It was unexpected and I appreciate you doing that for me.
Ketamine Disaster Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 Dude, you are so fucking gay. This is a fucking INTERNET WRESTLING MESSAGEBOARD AND YOU SHOULDN'T ACTUALLY HAVE TO TRY TO IMPRESS PEOPLE ON IT. JUST DON'T BE A RETARD. CHRIST.
Copper Feel Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 In his spare time, its been reported that he likes to go out alot. LOL, look at him go!
Gary Floyd Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 Deon's an "aspiring actor"? For fuck's sake...
Guest Tzar Lysergic Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 That was a nice, contrite apology. However, you still need to justify your presence. You need to let us know what you can bring to the table.
Lil' Bitch Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 I'll keep my discussions in Everybody Hurts, movies, and video games.
Lord of The Curry Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 We need this "in writing" so to speak. I don't want to sniff that useless twat in the MMA folder ever again.
Guest Tzar Lysergic Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 Well, we've had an apology and an offer of restraint. Let's put this to the judges. Moderators of all folders, come forth and judge yay or nay.
Lt. Al Giardello Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 Yeah stay the fuck out of the MMA folder you fucking little bitch.
Guest Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 If Mik says that Deon is supposed to stay out of the MMA folder, then he has to stay out. All up to Mik. If he keeps his discussion to the wrestling folders, movies, and video games, then I'm fine with him staying. No more LSD.
Lt. Al Giardello Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 Mik's got our back, he doesn't like that little turd.
The Ghost of bps21 Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 People SHOULD be banned just for sucking. That's why there is a staff of mods and not one guy running around making decisions. They should come together and throw out all of the useless shitty posters that play here.
At Home Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 Well, we've had an apology and an offer of restraint. Let's put this to the judges. Moderators of all folders, come forth and judge yay or nay. Haha, make Metal Ed cast a vote.
