Yes, but I've heard of a thing called a life, too, and felt that was worth more.

Klegg must have more lolcat resources bookmarked than I have electronic/robotics bookmarks, and that's saying something.
Every person has something to teach us. Sometimes those lessons are valuable. Other times....well....not so much. Still, I have no problem recognizing a talent when I see one. He's the Tiger Woods of his own scategory.
Moderators can still see the post, and thus the image/caption too, and obscene is a perfectly valid description for it.
Despite what some people think, moderators don't want to ban people - we would be much happier if they just kept to the rules instead, as it would mean less work for us to do.
We have better things that we could do with our time than trying to get people to act in a reasonable manner. You already know what the rules are (or if not, should check), and it isn't hard to stick to them - especially after you have already been warned.
If you don't like the rules here, feel free to find another site that has rules you do like.
Walk the line long enough and eventually you'll step over.
Is the ban length final or can I convince you to make it permanent?
For once, we think as one.Quote:

You know, i had the moderators ask me to remove a link from my signature once. They considered a link to david hasselhoff borderline offensive. (although he was showing chest hair). And the link was titled "creepiest gif ever"

I also posted an image yesterday with certain profanity in it, and I quickly edited the post to remove the image. dClamp saw it, I know, and I apologize. Should I be permanently banned for that?
I think the case here is that this wasnt kreggs "first offense", he has been banned before. Think what would happen if Kregg wouldnt be a regular, say he would be a 13 year old that comes onto the VB6 section every now and then to post the most questionable threads. Then he probably wouldnt get as many chances as most of the people on here, simply because; he would not be one of the CC-"goons" and not a known name. I do believe the CC-goons have been given far more chances than the average member, so they should thank their lucky star.Quote:

Though I'm happy he didnt get a permabann:afrog:
Folks, we could debate this until the cows come home (as previous threads have shown!).
The bottom line is that everyone here has different levels of tolerance and different people can be offended by different things. Everything you post on here is immediately visible; before hitting the submit button, take a few seconds to consider whether what you're posting is appropriate for a global audience. If you often find yourself deleting or editing posts after you have submitted them, that is a sign that you ought to be paying more attention to what you post. If you cannot extend even that simple courtesy to others, then you should not be posting on the forums at all.
We understand too that everyone makes mistakes, which is why we don't permanently ban for minor first offences. But we can't have different rules for different people, and we can't be constantly babysitting certain people because that's not our job. If you offend repeatedly, bans will increase in duration, and eventually you will be permanently banned. I can tell you that there are several other members who frequent this section who are very close to that point. It's also interesting to note that it is always a certain group of members (who shall remain nameless) who offend and who protest when the moderators take action. There are many more who would visit this section if it were not for the behaviour of a few and I personally think that is a shame.
Kreggs only contribution to this forum is a thin layer of trash. :wave:Quote:
