Yes. Point taken.

I think the main two problems with the rape thread was that it could have been construed to be a deliberately controversial thread, made for the sake of laughing at peoples reactions (At which point it would become a flame war and need to be closed) or a spam thread (And given your last two threads this would not have surprised me) which it became.?

To be honest, I really just wanted to make a new thread. In the 24 hours before I made that thread there were only three threads (please, I want to stop saying thread) in off topic that had new posts. I was bored and couldn't think of anything very interesting. So, I made a semi-funny thread. I didn't intend for anyone to get offended. I guess I sometimes forget that people aren't always as nonchalant about things as I am. I did make one other stupid thread like this before but the one before that was meant to be serious. I didn't intend that to become a spamfest. It just sort of happened. The new forum game is no different from Oddtour thread. I was merely letting people know that a forum member has been staying with me. The thread degenerated before I could say who, however.

Also as a side note; where the fuck do personal attacks into Max's social life come into this? I did a quick comparison of MF's profile and postbit compared to that of banned members (Codek, Dino) and noticed that banned members have NO rep power and their posts cannot be repped, MF does not fit either category so I would assume he isn't banned.Argumentum ad Hominum: a personal attack on the opposition instead of attacking his argument. This fallacy of logic makes it look like you have no decent counter argument against Max.

I was not making a personal attack on Max. My point is, if he is willing to bring his personal feelings about someone that he pseudo-dated for a bit into the forums and try to get all the mods to ban him (I read your thread in Employee Lounge, Nate. Figure that one out.) then I have no interest in what he thinks is good eticate. I didn't bring his personal life into anything. I merely have a problem with the way he has carried himself as a mod and don't feel I should give a shit about his opinion. He brought his own personal shit here.
In the end, yes. About 60 percent of my posts are silly and/or trollish. But when the majority of the mods are giving you good rep for them you can't honestly say that I should be expecting infractions.
