Here's an example. You see this? ^^^^I'd ban. This isn't technically a shit flinging contest in high intensity. But this is the kind of bullshit I'm talking about. This is the shit that sparks arguments and forum drama. You people don't know when to drop the fucking ball.
Quote from: RC5908 on December 24, 2014, 01:18:47 PMyour incessant aggression and belligerence overshadow any positive contributions you've madeNo, I don't think they do. When I fight with someone, that's not me running down the community, is it? Is it really? What's more destructive? Me fighting with someone I hate, and maybe having three or four users gang up on me in the process, even in threads where I'm not even ASKING FOR TROUBLE...or... someone who posts fifty threads a day that are about nothing--threads that add nothing to the discussion and only inflate the forum's popularity.
your incessant aggression and belligerence overshadow any positive contributions you've made
There would be no one left to post on the site then.

Three days, maximum. If he wants to continue posting on the forum, he wouldn't continue aggravating arguments like he tries to do every time he opens his fat mouth.

He said the exact same thing to me:

In my opinion, any shitpost you make deducts from any positive contributions you might have made in the past. But whatever.
Pay attention to the underlined passage, and tell me how that doesn't continue arguments?
Quote from: Fagcicle on December 24, 2014, 12:38:29 PMWe can only communicate as much as possible. An example was allowing everyone to see the "Warned" title to show that we actually gave out warnings frequently. Of course, then people used it as an accessory and just shitposted to get it.It became less of a punishment.To me, that was a big mistake to remove that. Because if you're willing to shitpost just to get it, that just goes to show how much contributional value THAT user has, if that's how they're gonna treat their forum. That's why if they continue, BAN the fucker. Permanently. They're obviously not fit for intelligent discussion/posting.I mean, I hate to blame Noelle, but that whole trend sort of was her fault, but she was just being vindictive. And just like the sheep that a lot of this community consists of, they followed it.I don't fucking know. I just don't think it has to be this difficult.

Which I used on purpose to see if it caught your eye.Good job. You know how to spot shit. Now what are you going to do about it in the future?
Yeah, it doesn't work that way. If a member doesn't give a shit about being banned - which most of this forum's shitposters don't - they aren't going to care about "three tiers of punishments"

Nah, it was actually me who started the warning thing.
Maybe so, but we both know he was referring to me.
It may not be black or white but it definitely needs streamlining and balancing out.

The Flood has ALWAYS been about shitposting.
Cheat put a stop to it when Noelle started making it a big deal though.

You let them pass through the system and if they don't give two fucks then they shouldn't be welcome here.You know what you do with people who don't care? You give them a chance to care. Give them a chance to slow down a bit and straighten out a bit. And when they run out of chances you put your fucking boot down.
You want to give us stuff we don't?
Quote from: Fagcicle on December 24, 2014, 01:57:48 PMYou want to give us stuff we don't?It's exactly this sort of communication which leads to problems. Yeah, we know you know this because we've been saying it for the past three pages, but you haven't actually communicated any intentions, ideas, or anything really. It feels more like an argument than a discussion/collaboration. . .
