Flameboard Rule interpretation

[jamal]

Sneaky said it better than I could.

Than read the quote.
This wouldn't be the thread it is if no one fucking cared.
Jesus christ, open your fucking eyes.

 

[Arctyrael]

They are open. I haven't told you to stfu yet. Stop acting like your opinion is the only correct opinion.

I'm afraid I don't see the point of reading the quote. If I quoted you and claim it as my own quote - it'd hold just as much validity.

I understand your frustration, but my God, it is the FB and I don't see it more than a stupid comment. Not harassment or a RL threat.

Ok, as I said back on page three or something... It isn't harassment. Harassment is a persistent action. Morwen made a single comment. Stop classifying it as harassment because it's incorrect, by the very definition of the word.

Edit: Oh and don't disagree with me because I have cancer.

3) This forum is not to be used to flame or harass someone's real life. Any thread that containing this will be deleted.


If the above truely is the quote, making fun of the fact someones brother died in real life should fall under the catagory of harassing someone's real life.

I'm not the only one that sees it as harassment. If someone calls me on the phone, I tell them who I am, then they say I hope you and your brother die, I'm pretty sure the Cops would find that as harassment, first time offense or not.

 

[Kagemusha]

To you it isn't. To me, and other people, it is. There's a divide between those who say its important, and those who say its not, and both sides feel strongly.

Your wanting to stop the discussion on this is pretty weak.

You have a really strange obsessiveness with this topic. The fact that your title and LS is a really immature attack on Morwen reminds me of Neolink.

 

[Rappa]

It isn't harassment but it IS flaming, which according to the guidelines isn't allowed. That's all I've been pointing out in this topic. According to cmdr the rules are being re-evaluated so hopefully something good comes out of all of this.

To be fair, to me AND others, it isn't. We have a few people making a stink over this. Some, yourself included, more than others. The vast majority of people that couldn't care less won't even post. Remember that. I posted because this is fucking ridiculous. That's all. I think the discussion should stop for the greater good, and especially for your sake.

Call a women at your work a slut. Just do it once no more and see if it is taken as harassment.

One could easily label your attitude to some people in this thread as harassment if this were the case.

I've been punished already for breaking the rules. And I made the joyeuse post right after yours the most popular thread on the forums before my punishment was brought on. I'm not wishing death to anyone, I'm saying I disagree with their views and think she should receive a punishment for it.

HAY KAGE! I CAN PLAY TITLES TOO, CAN ME AND JAMAL HAVE COOKIES!? :O

Also for Duncan... "Harassment" and "Sexual Harassment" are two different things.

2: to worry and impede by repeated raids <harassed the enemy>
synonyms see worry
— ha·rass·er noun
— ha·rass·ment \-mənt\ noun

You can try and argue 1a-2, but he invited and welcomed it by even bringing such a sensitive topic to the board, even with his penchant for lying and his general jackassery, and the brother welcomed it by diving into the shit in that thread and dragging out the brother comment instead of letting it GO after it was made reference to.

Main Entry: sexual harassment
Function: noun
Date: 1975
: uninvited and unwelcome verbal or physical behavior of a sexual nature especially by a person in authority toward a subordinate (as an employee or student)

Ugh it's not the OED, but it will suffice.

 

[Arctyrael]

flaming on the flame board != illegal

Wait what?

Thanks. My point exactly.

Kink was banned for the exact type of thing Morwen(i'm cuter if i put-ny on my name teehee) said. We have precedent. I think its offensive that she make sexual inuendo's at nearly every post, but I just mind my business. Now she's gone too far, and should receive punishment for it

So you're equating a straw-that-broke-the-camel's-back comment from Kink with the first-time offense from Morwen? I'll agree that they look equally hideous when compared side-by-side without context, but that's exactly what they are... without context.

 

[Lukas]

If we're on a crusade to defend BBT's hurt feelings here, why not target those people with the BBT sigs? Or just Romper, maybe?

 

[Arctyrael]

..

Context is the 'relative information' killer of any mod decision made on these boards.

Heh. No kidding.

There's a reason I oppose mandatory minimum sentences and no-tolerance policies. They tend to throw the concept of justice right out the window.

 

[Lecreuset]

Thanks. My point exactly.

I already illustrated how it was made invited and welcome.

You're on a crusade to get someone banned because you get no internet play and apparently someone musta shot you down hard to be this heated.

Stand-up guy in-game from what I know like others said, but you're really ruining your credibility as someone who can stay cool and respectable over issues you feel passionately about.

You're acting like a fucking toddler who wants his binky back.

Grow up son.

 

[Mirewen]

Just like Kink.

Kink wasn't banned for being, don't know how to put it so I'll just say "that way".

She was banned for "continual harrasment and aggrivation of the general community and moderators". If all she did was derail threads to talk about herself and flirt constantly with anything that moves, she wouldn't have ben banned.

And, for the record, I'm not saying that only guys get banned.
