People who compare this to Sculli obviously weren't really around much for Sculli.

He got perma banned for something else, not for the suicide topic. Sorry, you lose. But yes you can undo the 2 month ban, but it won't do much, now will it? Don't be a smart-ass.

You are just cuddling members like an overprotective mother. If OP didn't complain than there is absolutely no reason to temp ban. And even if OP complained, the best you can do is slap on the wrist and say to play nice. Well technically you can do whatever you want, I just mean you shouldn't.

If you can't take people being insensitive, go to a psychiatrist and pay money for advice, otherwise take what you get.

Ladies and gents, I give you the new Shaunessy. (Not saying this is him but saying his attitude is the same)

Did you once see me insult anyone who is upset or in trouble seeking advice? Don't fucking compare me to that asshole. I stay away from topics where someone is upset and I don't have anything cheerful to say. I'm saying that if you post on a board, you have to expect both positive and negative, and not to expect to be carebeared and shielded from simple truth that most people aren't nice.

I think you are retarded for not seeing the difference between acting like an ass to someone, and accepting that there will always be people that will act like an ass to someone.

artem isn't anything like shaun. thats pretty stupid to say.

 

[Myrrh]

Then wouldn't being unhappy about a ONE week ban fall under that, Artem? I'm not saying what road did was okay nor am i saying his banning is okay but if you don't punish rude things like that then people will get worse and worse.

Sculli was an idiot and banned people for saying shit. Puting someone on a temp ban for making fun of someone nearing kill themselves is reasonable.

DD was seeking ADVISE not humor. If he wanted funny replies i'm sure he would have called his thread "Lmao my friend is such a stupid Emo" or something along those lines.

 

[Raesvelg]

What makes the ban seem kinda silly for me was this line from the original post:

She denied everything, he went all emo and stalkerish.

So people get offended at him classifying the subject of the OP as emo even though the OP did so himself, you ban him for making an arguably offensive post of an old video that he apologizes for a page later...

Was it rather tasteless? Yes.

So what?

We've had tons of tasteless activity on this board. We've had the infamous porn threads, which a lot of the female members of the board find tasteless, yet nobody has really gotten a ban over that.

There's tons of stuff that someone can find offensive that slides by all the time. If the OP didn't complain about the post, why did it result in a ban?

Number 1 rule of the internet.

Don't post about anything that's emotional to you. You will get offended and in the end it's your own fault.

Rule Number 2:

It's never your fault, your the victim. It's everyone elses no matter what the situation.

Hmmm, seems to be alot of that going around.

Honestly, who cares? Its a 1 week suspension from a forum, not likes hes banned from the game. Mods run the site, and considering the admin is awol, I'd say they are doing a decent job.

The reason he got perma banned was because he kept making sock puppets for the TWO MONTH...I repeat TWO MONTH ban from the suicide topic. If you really want me to be fair & shit, I'll just up Roadkills ban to two months. Frankly, I thought I was going easy on him. And yes, I am cuddling my members because if I wrote something about a friend who did something like this, I wouldn't want someone running around goind OMFG HE'S EMOZ LAWL.

I'm sorry if you disagree with my banning, but I still stand by my decision, as I have seen no real argument against it.

i admit, no, just because someone cut themselfs dosent mean thier emo, for that i apoligize. But for ffs, he needs to grow up, seriously. People get dumped everyday, people lose friends and family everyday, things happen. while a loss of life or realationship is never good, SHIT HAPPENS. There is no reason to inflict harm to yourself, or others.

Shit happens isn't something to go posting in RL threads ya know? The OP was asking for advice, not shit happens.

Which is why the ban was 100% in the right.

How is some kid cutting himself equal to someone killing themself? When I posted about my friend's suicide, it was not only personal and emotional (like this) but it was also a player who many interacted with in FFXI on our server. Then another friend of mine passed away 3 months and 4 days later. He also played on this server. Reading Shaunessy's posts actually made me angry enough that I would have lost control had he been in front of me. I've posted this before and what's he do? Rates me down and states that he'd kill me. 2 months is no where near long enough for Shaunessy, the punk shouldn't even be in allowed into society let alone an internet forum. Yes, I post jokes all the time. That was serious. As far as Roady's post, I'm assuming it was this?

i admit, no, just because someone cut themselfs dosent mean thier emo, for that i apoligize. But for ffs, he needs to grow up, seriously.

There is no reason to inflict harm to yourself, or others.

I fail to see how that's insensitive. That's the adult route, the mature route. If you feel yourself overwhelmed, take a step back and reassess life. Find positives where you feel negatives and fight through it. In 4 months I went through two friends passing away, my uncle and mother having spinal surgery, getting sued for $10,000, and y'know what? I'm stronger for making it through it. Cutting yourself, in my opinion, means you have two problems: Mental issues and attention issues. Either way, see a shrink. Video game nerds on a website can't help you.

There is no need for a moderator to baby anyone.

I’m starting to think this is the main catalyst that troubles this place. Most want to be treated like an adult without any moderation and dictations. Difference is most adults should know self moderation and can respect other people’s boundaries. If you can’t you’re on the verge of acting like a child. And if you’re acting childish with the selfish notion that nothing else matters but yourself then you are asking for someone to dictate your responsibilities… mainly because you’re showing that you can not do so yourself. Someone needs to look out for those people who would rather tear you into nothing just for a “lol”

------------

Common sense? Places to reach out for serious emotional issues... the internet? How do you regulate something like this?

----------

I can understand protecting the feelings of someone who didn't want to make whatever was being discussed public. I can respect personal privacy. It exists for a reason, the reason being that your business is your business, and when you allow it to be other people's business, they unfortunately have the right to say whatever they please about it.

----------

This rule is make believe and not law. You can not expect everyone else to live by your own lines. Especially when your line mainly caters to not having any responsibility for your actions or the well being of others.

Show a little fucking empathy.

 

[Kotsu]

so this is Roady's post. Let me quote what I'm reading.

hey, life isnt fair. driveing drunk in a mad rage dosent solve anything, killing in vengence dosent solve anything, and certainly cutting yourself dosent solve anything. I dont condone anything that has a utterly foolish outcome. i mean com'on, what was his excuse btw? just because he was sad? i'm sorry he did it, but, he did do it, and no one can control free will.

This is the truth, hide from it or accept it. It's not your fault and you can't change the past. That's life, too bad. When you find a way to change the past, let me know. I'll go back in time and bring my friends back. Otherwise, if the kids is still alive from cutting himself then it's not too late.

i admit, no, just because someone cut themselfs dosent mean thier emo, for that i apoligize. But for ffs, he needs to grow up, seriously. People get dumped everyday, people lose friends and family everyday, things happen. while a loss of life or realationship is never good, SHIT HAPPENS. There is no reason to inflict harm to yourself, or others.

His opinion for DD's friends who committed the act.

Few years ago, my best friend was into drugs, with the wrong crowd. He calls me up asking about a red pickup truck i'm supposed to give this black guy i dont even know. i thought he was just mesing with me. well next morning, i come to found out his mother finds him hanging from the garage. yeah it sucks, but things happen. i'm not looking for sympathy because i have something my neck holds up, a brain, and i use it. I toke a day to give my respects and moarn his death, collected myself and DEALT WITH IT. i didnt bother taking out my sorrow on my own body or others, because that would not have solved anything.

A personal experience with someone harming themself. Drugs, instead of cutting. How he handled it was exactly that, the way he handled it. We're all different people with different capacities for emotional stress and trauma.

So again, i'm sorry about your friend, but something bordering suicide is nothing to mess around with. esp. over a girlfriend (or boyfriend for you females)

His condolences that it happened, but as he's made clear. It's too late. In life your actions are everything. If you have to make an action to fight for a friends life or death and hesitate. Well, it's too late, stop dwelling on it. If you didn't immediately make the action, then you made the wrong decision.

 

[Elemmire]

wait, was it a first time offense? if it was a first time offense than just a warning woulda done (aka a PM). But with that "if you don't care about the person's life, don't post" what if he did care about it but has a negative response? Negatives can be a positive, I guess. In which case I guess there really shouldn't be any warning or banning. Banning seems like it should be if it's a multiple offense.. then again, the banning does get the point across.. (honestly I have no stance on this, just seems like there's good points on both sides). Hmm, anyways, who cares if it's just a week? A week is nothing and I'm sure it could be better spent on homework or work or something.

and lol at the Artem is like Shaunessy thing.
