I go away for a while and you all turn into total retards.
It's just a forum. Stop being twats.
"Respect other members, and their opinions.
Spamming is not tolerated.
Do not threaten the safety of the forums or server.
Do not discuss bans with others.
Do not post anything directed at single members."
1: respect is subjective.
2: the definition of "spam" is subjective, but I beleive the "dictionary" description of spam should be used to describe and identify it, rather than simply "whatever a mod deems useless".
3: I've already threatened and compromised the security of the forums' server several times in the past, yet I am still here, why is that?
4: Why should we not discuss bans with the others? This is a community, you can't just remove it's members and expect life to go on as if nothing happened. There is simply no way you can regulate or enforce that rule unless you start policing PM's, which is something the vBulletin architecture isn't designed to do.
5: How the hell are we supposed to address individual points in discussions then?
I don't see this enforcement as anything more than a limitation on the scope and possibilities of future discussion. And frankly Alcar as much as I am releived to see you taking a more active stance against your staff as well as the members, I don't fully trust your perceptions with so many very subjective and unclear areas.
I'm not going to use a forum which takes "rule enforcement" with the same seriousness as post-911 USA takes "war on terrorism".
