water Posted January 27, 2008 Author CID Share Posted January 27, 2008 pardon me, but, what happened? P.S.>i agree to this, the rules should be reminded to a lot of people(that includes me too) Nothing big enough to speak of, but people do need to be reminded from time to time that the place where they sit is not necessarily their own home.

tommie gorman Posted January 27, 2008 CID Share Posted January 27, 2008 pardon me, but, what happened? P.S.>i agree to this, the rules should be reminded to a lot of people(that includes me too) Nothing big enough to speak of, but people do need to be reminded from time to time that the place where they sit is not necessarily their own home. You mean I might actually be in a girls house? I understand. Even though I might be in my jammies, I might be in some nekked gals house I mean some other persons house at the same time.

water Posted January 27, 2008 Author CID Share Posted January 27, 2008 LOL Nah Peep, sarcasm isn't against the rules. Sending mean PM's, posting derogatory comments against another member, making posts that state you are in a fight with someone, that kind of stuff is what needs to be addressed. Ganging up on people, you know the basic drama bullshit that anyone with integrity wouldn't do anyway.... that's what this forum is not about. Fight the drama!

Shug7272 Posted January 28, 2008 CID Share Posted January 28, 2008 So, sarcasm is against the rules now? This post was edited by Shug7272 The rules of this forum state you must be polite. If you cannot be polite then your stay at this forum will not last long. This post is not directed at peep, but at everyone, including myself. no offense but seems like every post from you recently has been sarcastic or uncalled for....but, being the nice guy i am, i will explain 'be polite' Means Dont make sarcastic or unneeded posts/comments. and treat others as you would like to be treated. and just generally be Nice to the other members. Thank you for the well written post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shug7272 Posted January 29, 2008 CID Share Posted January 29, 2008 Oh good lord. I knew when someone got out of line peep would be by to ask why they were punished. "What, you mean I cant be rude and try to piss people off? WELL HELL.." Your never around to help moderate the forum or contribute anything positive at all so why try to make the jobs of those here that DO try to moderate the forum harder? See ya again in 6 months when someone starts yelling "fuck this forum" again so you can ask more idiotic questions. If you cant figure out what "be polite" means, maybe you should go elsewhere and educate yourself some more. My 5 year old understands how to be polite. <--- please note no sarcasm here. Its just.... well... the truth. Just do what everyone else here has always done and ignore him man. He is one of the biggest antagonizer this forum has ever had. This post was reported as inappropriate with a note saying "who will mod the mods." If anyone other than the reporter feels this post is out of line. Please tell me, I will publicly appologize and modify it.There will be no hard feelings. Period. If nobody else feels it out of line it will remain unless CA3LE believes it is wrong. The bottom line of this post is be polite or be elsewhere. Not much wiggle room there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommie gorman Posted January 29, 2008 CID Share Posted January 29, 2008 You know its right. I wouldn't worry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shug7272 Posted January 29, 2008 CID Share Posted January 29, 2008 You know its right. I wouldn't worry. Thank you, and that means alot coming from you, considering we have had HEATED disagreements in the past. I know you would have no trouble telling me it is wrong. If anyone else believes it is wrong and you dont want to put it here you can pm me. Im not looking for everyone to come to my defense, I want the opinion of the members who are here day in and day out and know what they expect from me and the other mods.

water Posted January 29, 2008 Author CID Share Posted January 29, 2008 I don't know why you have an issue with the report Shug. You know that your post was appropriate, and on target. There is no reason for ANYONE to be inciting drama, bullshit, infighting or merely a bad mood toward others on this site. This is "testmy.net" and it is a help site. If everyone can't get along under those two topics, then lets get rid of anything that isn't testing, or support and the rest can go to "post your drama bullshit here". ok joke but funny but still true!

Damn maybe we need that section. I have never liked "flame" sections because it bleeds hard feelings into the rest of the forum. I do appreciate your opinion and what you were trying to accomplish by posting this thread. I feel strongly about the politness rule ( I KNOW I am not perfect, but I assure you I try) and I know you didnt NEED me to post after your OP but wanted everyone to KNOW I supported you in the creation of this post. If your here to start shit GO ELSEWHERE. THEY ALLOW IT ALMOST EVERYWHERE BUT HERE!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
