'Cause it's not being a dumbass. It's saying that any time you post something, you have to be sure that [censored] likes it, otherwise you can get banned.

Granted, if he wants to ban me, I'm not gonna lose any sleep over it, I just think it's a dumb idea because people are just going to stop posting period.

Exactly. I think the greatest possibility of this is only the people who don't give a [censored] about being banned post here. A ton of people adding fun/smart/humorous (generally) non offensive posts to worthwhile threads. I mean, if you are thinking of posting something, and you think [censored] might ban you because of it, either a) you're a pussy and we don't want you here or b)the idea probably isn't that good.

You've been around long enough to see how bad this place has gotten, 1, maybe 2 days a week we have some fun. Why not give this is a shot?

I agree with you, in part. There is a lot of garbage in here, and I think that it would be one thing to clean up actually worthless threads, but I think that otherwise, you just have to take the good with the bad.

As it is, with things that [censored] has said in the main thread about this, a lot of really, very good threads would never have been started. The Pic War thread never would have been started because [censored] has said that people starting stupid threads about worthless pics would be banned. How many 5 year olds? That's like our claim to fame and if the guy who started it had said "Eh, maybe it's a stupid idea, I don't wanna start it, I could get banned," we would never have ANY fun.

My biggest issue is that [censored] hasn't said what he'll ban people for. He's put out some very broad guidelines, but he's basically leaving it up to his discretion. I'm not totally averse to the idea of banning people, but making a single mod for the sole purpose of having carte blanche to ban whoever he wants seems ridiculous.

Exactly! That's why its so great! People will have to think before their idiotic little hands reach for the keyboard in order to dribble their idiocy across OOT.

For instance, comparing anything - anything! - in this forum to "Nazi Germany" is idiocy. Worrying about your post getting you banned is a good thing: it makes you think about the quality of your post. Worrying about your post getting you sent to a gulag, or getting your family sent to a dank, dark prison somewhere, is so retarded it should never be mentioned. Hence the idiocy of bringing up any sort of genocidal regime here.

One of the major faults of internet forums is the complete lack of accountability. This is why people will type "YSSCKY" here, but never, ever say that to a coworker. [censored] 's idea adds some level of accountability for what is posted here, and that will inevitably raise the quality of the forum.

I've kept this inside for long enough:

You, sir, are one sharp mother-fucker.

Obviously I'm with your sentiment. This was a difficult choice for me; I don't think I've ever come down on the side of dictatorial power in anything in my life.

But so many posters suck so much.

It all rests in the hands of [censored]; dubious hands, certainly, but his taste in rhetoric seems to be better than most's. There exists an excellent probability that I'll regret ever getting behind this thing, but for the sake of not having to read anything PorscheNGuns ever writes ever again, I'm willing to try.

word. I am in favor of self-policing in forums. Let the masses shout the douchebags down. That's half the fun.

There does need to be somebody with moderator powers, to say for instance delete awful photos that somebody posted from ogrish.... and give us the poster's address so we can go to his house and kick his ass.

Not that it matters but this account is not I, nor did I sign his petition. I made my feelings pretty clear in another thread.

See this is an awesome example of why this idea rules so much. Here bob has voiced a negative opinion of me three times. Yet guess what, while he is clearly wrong in this case, his posts don't usually suck - so no banning. I'm firm but fair.

Mostly I see myself as strict but loving father figure who 3 times per month will be taking some posters to the woodshed.

Also it seems there is some significant interest it opening it up beyond 3. Hopefully Mat takes that into account.
=====================
Something I just thought of that will be pretty sweet for those of you who get banned. When you try and log on and it tells you reason you're banned it will say " You have been [censored] " See how sweet that will be?

Let me put this on the record.

Should the United States of America, which I consider Planet Earth's best attempt at civilization thus far, ever deliberately set out to destroy Mecca, Jerusalem, the Vatican, or any other irreplaceable site of of one of the great world religions, I will instantly defect, devoting the rest of my public life to the downfall of this country in whatever way I can be most effective.

That is all.

We don't need to drag this onto OOT, but, to summarize:

1) States are impermanent. Men and their souls are what last forever. Yet we are perversely made to behave as though the opposite were true. Weird.

2) You don't know anything about Islam, or any other world religion. Anything.

3) My contempt for your person is in no way emotional or inspired by hurt. You just seem like a douchebag. That's all.

I like the way you speak in absolutes, it really dilutes your message and shows a true lack of understanding.

Religion is for the weak of mind, for those who need an invisiblle crutch. Believing in God is just plain silly.

I still don't see where I might have offended you in the past but after reading a random selection of your posts I'm quite pleased that I have.

i think the point that is getting lost here is that 2p2 is a site to post for help in p*k*r. that is why the p*k*r forums are on top, and why OOT is at the very bottom.

i'll admit, i was drawn to this site by the 5 yr old thread, and spend 95% of my time in Sporting Events and OOT (although, this is starting to change, go STTs!), but for many people this is just a place to come when they are tired of telling noobs to fold J2s to a 3bet.

Granted, i know there are a few too many immature sex threads, but instead of banning the poster, why not just lock/delete the thread until people get the point that this immature crap is getting old?

Would you prefer:

"Your understanding of any matter theological (as evidenced by your second blanket statement (huh, blanket statements) above)is obviously too weak to make it worth mine or anyone else's time to debate you on the matter, as argument in the face of complete, abject, willful ignorance is doomed to fall on deaf ears, and we all know about scattering pearls before swine."

This is a far more unwieldy sentence, and lacks street flava, while it's at it.

Again: You have not offended me. You have offended my aesthetics. You sound bad. You write poorly, you never bring anything enjoyable to the table, and you're just a total drag. That's all I'm saying.

You wrote more absolutes in any single runon sentence than I have witnessed in quite some time. Yet you criticize my grammar and composition? If not so sad it would be funny.

You have only been posting here for six months so it is unlikely you have read every single one of my posts but that alone does not excuse your ignorance.

That's not a runon. That's a sentence with a lot of clauses. Do you know the difference? No, you do not.

for example, someone has bad taste in music... banned. someone say something stupid like "i just found out my friend is gay, can i still say hi to him in the halls?" banned.

Oh, and go Cowboys. Oakland was a blow, but we shall soldier on.

I act smug primarily I am better than you and the majority of the posters in OOT, and many of the other forums as well.

I mean, if you are thinking of posting something, and you think [censored] might ban you because of it, either a) you're a pussy and we don't want you here or b)the idea probably isn't that good.

[/ QUOTE ]
Exactly! That's why its so great! People will have to think before their idiotic little hands reach for the keyboard in order to dribble their idiocy across OOT.

For instance, comparing anything - anything! - in this forum to "Nazi Germany" is idiocy. Worrying about your post getting you banned is a good thing: it makes you think about the quality of your post. Worrying about your post getting you sent to a gulag, or getting your family sent to a dank, dark prison somewhere, is so retarded it should never be mentioned. Hence the idiocy of bringing up any sort of genocidal regime here.

One of the major faults of internet forums is the complete lack of accountability. This is why people will type "YSSCKY" here, but never, ever say that to a coworker. [censored] 's idea adds some level of accountability for what is posted here, and that will inevitably raise the quality of the forum.

[/ QUOTE ]

while i dont agree with [censored] getting "executive oot powers" i do agree with much of what u wrote, particularly the last part. which i why i am in full support of keeping SIIHP. I say this all the time to people. Like a hot chic comes by, Me: "i would SIIHP" Buddy: "shes so fine, i would lick her pooper" Me: "whatever dude, lets go get some beer" etc.

No seriously, dont you think the whole banning thing is out of control? You should be banned, no you should be banned, no he is banned, no you are banned. There are like 50 mods running around here banning people and have no accountablity. People get on here to have a good time, not to be harrassed and threatend with bannings. Im supprised I havent been banned yet, and I havent even done anything. I mean, sh it, what, will I wake up next thursday and try to log on to 2+2 and read "you have been banned?" for no reason?
