How the fuck are at pictures 10x more annoying and worth perma ban over people talking shit about chicken/bacon, fried food of every variety and flirting over and over and over in no contructive way repeatedly by the same people or a large group how is that better?
I'd say the main reason is that about 60% of topics end up haveing cat pictures in them. If it happened every once in awhile, sure, thats just great. This has been an on going issue for awhile.
As far as the fast food goes, i covered it in another thread. People were actually contributing to the discussion, and more then the same 3 people. That thread was pretty active for awhile. I said it before, that thread is still serving a semi-active purpose. It would be better to delete the first post, change the thread title, and move it to off-topic or something. It wouldn't get anywhere near as much response, but thats the way it goes i guess.
So if you don't like that alot of people are holding a discussion about something you don't like, then just don't read it. How many people still go in to the WoW forum and start out, "lolWow < FFXI N00bs11!!". Its pretty much what you are doing, but to a lesser extent.
However, the multiple derails by the same people talking about the same night they hung out with eachother over multiple threads does get a bit much. I will agree with you on that, and i know most other people do judging by the thread where this was started.
And lets not forget the warning on my acct (I think everyone can view it by checking my profile) for using the word "faggot". Now, if that constitutes a warning, there are a lot of people in trouble.
This is also a very good point. I can't even count the number of times, even while Meeze was banned, that people would just make the racial remarks about him. I didn't care at all, but if you are going to give a warning out for something like this, then you have to keep it uniform and equal across the whole board.
P.S. I can't see the warning on your account, but i don't really know where to look either.
