What the hell do you expect will happen if you do the exact samething Billy Joe just got banned for?
jack, you know by your sentence:Jack wrote:The next person that posts about mod actions in this thread is going to be given two warnings, and thus banned according to the "special server war" rules.
you would give 2 official warnings, so banning, cause of 1 post, that is breaking the special rules, since the rules say 2 warnings, those are oficial warnings, by giving both warnings cause of 1 post is not following the rules, is abusing your power, thats how i see it, but alas im only a user, im guessing the rest of the forum staff agrees with you
but ok, from what i saw, you didnt enforce that action, maybe that sentence worked, dunno, i might be wrong and you right
Of course, and I would have enforced it had someone gone and violated the rules anyway. If it is so hard to follow such a simple rule then the person should not be posting here anyway.
What I meant to say was "People are routinely issued 2(TWO) warnings for deliberately disobeying a mod", this is especially true if they have repeatedly done so. It is not "abusing my power" it is enforcing the rules.
If an administrator thinks that I have acted unfairly or harshly they can, and will, overrule me. This is obviously not one of those cases, as I specifically linked the post to various admins. Not only did they not overrule me, they agreed with the hardline stance. This is because they(the posters) had been repeatedly told NOT to do the very thing they were doing.

lol, ofc we all know that i always thought the idea of having a big staff, is having ppl from different timezones, so there would be always at least one mod online
Even so, this is a big ass forum, with lots and lots of posts. One mod, even 4 mods can not cover the entire forum 24/7 and catch everysingle rule violation, it's simply impossible. But I do believe that we do a good job catching the majority.
Nox wrote:and about the gc section, lol, i modded that section, and while your right, i didnt see what ppl did, to make you guys create these special rules, probably it was really bad seing both sides, but still, i always believed in letting some spam in the war threads, its part of it, from all the wars ive been involved here, the best ones were always the ones where we spammed the war threads, along with our enemies, ofc all being funny and respectable, but still spam lol, cause if its just war talk, is just: "i massed you, ahah" - "i massed you back, ehehe" lol, thats boring, specialy being a farm fest nowadays loll
You're not listening, it has been said countless times. The "special rules" were created because people were being wildly disrespectful, and rude. They were breaking rules left and right, and there was semi-chaos.
Nox wrote:about the end of the war, it will be forever, cause the only way the war to end is fuall disbanding and surrendering, and i dont see that happening, from our side, trust me, we're here for as long as it takes, forever included
That's fine by me. People need to learn accountability. They CHOSE to break the rules, even knowing the consequences. Now they are being held accountable for those actions, they have no one to blame but themselves.

if you loath that section, why dont you leave it to other mods to mod it ?? thats why there are sections, even being a gm, you can leave it alone, there are other mods you know
and close the thread if you want, lol, its the same for me the war will still be on
Because, even though I might loath the section, I still have a responsibility to mod there.
So you're saying I should lock this thread?
Anyway, I'm done with you. Over the course of this discussion you shown me that you are either...
A. A complete and utter dolt.
or
B. You actually realize that what those you are defending, did was wrong, and that the punishments they face is just. But you do not care, because they are your friends, and members of your "coalition" or whatever you want to call it. This is evidenced by your ignoring of many facts, this is the action of a debater, and as we know, a debater's goal is not to find the truth, but to win the debate.
Since I have no patience for stupidity, and not the time to be wasted arguing with someone whom does not care for the truth, but merely seeks immunity from the rules for himself, and his friends/alliance mates, I am done.
Goodbye.
