i made great friends from this foirum..even in the begging showed like we hate eachother cos we had different opinions..
alot of times,if not all,we see things only from our view..isnt easy to understand theother person opinion..in the end of the day..this is internet and its for fun..no need to suffer or struggle when we are in the forum

Dimitris, you are friends with everyone. I think you know better than most people how to treat people here on the forums. This is a place where we can be serious and where we can be silly too. You are right about the rules. Even if we don't always agree with them, we make a choice whether to live with them or not.

I just hope the people I care about will keep doing that. Speedy made some excellent points in his posts. I'm sure people have reasons to be unhappy or frustrated but I'd rather see people stay and contribute than go away angry.

been here for quite a while and i never thought i'd see speedy as the voice of reason lol

Imagine if this band had followed rules, what kind of pearl jam would we have.

Ha ha!

Know what you mean.

RKCNDY · February 2015

Yes Dimi, there were times when people got warnings...it was a 3 strikes you're out kind of thing. Some people even got fourth, and fifth chances.

Maybe this forum doesn't have the warning system? I think WH deserves a second chance, maybe just give her a month time out, and I'm sure she would behave when she came back. She's such a great person.

+1....
but he is right. lifetime ban means i don't get a chance to make new friends to add to all the great ones that i have found on these forums.

Who Princess · February 2015

Well, we don't even know the details of WH's ban, whether it's permanent or temporary. We're just assuming.

She most DEF DESERVES a second or even third chance cuz I've never seen her post anything worth banning. Even tho I know some of you think her last post was worth it.

it does. or it did, anyway, the last time I got one. mind you, that was a long time ago, but at least it used to be 3 concurrent strikes and you were banned. each strike took I think 90 days to reset.

Hahaha, a young Ed would have had a lifetime ban for sure.

RKCNDY · February 2015

Usually if it's a temporary ban, you get bars over your avatars. A permanent ban is when your avatars is changed to the red one.

we are members of this club and they have rules that they require be respected. just like any club. it really doesn't make a difference what the band has done. Ed has sometimes been disrespectful to politicians, but he isn't part of their club. had he been, he would have been properly reprimanded or banned from that club as well. put it in proper context.

Last person I knew with a "vacation" type ban had the red box of death. I just noticed the bars on an avatar yesterday and they were posting

you know i agree with that Carolyn ..im in the happy position to know even in person most of the people posting here..and to tell u the truth,in person some people are more sweet and kind than their post here..
as an exable i can tell u about Badbrains..some thinks he is agressive,or very passioned or curse alot..
i get it....but in person Nart is a fuckin great guy..someone you can count and be happy he is your friend
and yes..everybody feels a little rebel when comes to rules..maybe helps me the fact im 23 years in Airforce and i know how to deal with rules more easy than others....
and yes..SPEEDY nailed it..

The forums do not have the capability to do a timed ban so it's done with a perm ban that we have to undo manually when a time-out is up.

what's on your mind, right now?
