Yes, because there's no middle ground between the police state that was JJ and total anarchy. :rolleyes:

Welcome to the club Hoops! lol if they reverse it, no one knows what the fucking rules are here.

Also - fuck wildcats, that idiot should've been banned from what he posted in the initial rules thread.

Why? Seriously, how was I the only one who's been banned for doing shit people on here do everyday. You fuckers are retards at enforcing the "new" rules.

no idea what you are talking about. I just read that hoops had an infraction reversed but it still kept him banned....so I made it right. Sorry for being retarded.

yeah, apparently...the software allowed them to reverse the infraction, but it didn't kick out the basement ban. So I went into the administrative shit and manually took off the ban.

I reversed the infraction. I can't reverse the ban. I assumed it was all one process, obviously it wasn't.

Right - but why reverse the infraction and ban? There's no structure with the rules. He calls someone a liberal piece of garbage it's cool i call someone fucking lame I'm banned.

I really have no idea because I didn't read the thread, but they said he was just joking around. They infracted and then discussed it in the mod lounge...decided to reverse it.

My only thing was that I can get in the admin thing...whereas some mods can't. As for your infraction, I never saw it.....so I really couldn't tell you what happened.

Do you guys have TV's and vending machines in the mod lounge?

I remember ts1227(C4F 2.0) giving me a warning for saying "the OP is an idiot" after mcburg started a thread saying that exact same thing and it was clearly just a joke and mcburg didnt even say anything about it.

Im guessing ts1227 was bored and there was no one around in the mod lounge to discuss it with so he deleted my post and gave me a warning over nothing.

Agree, I gave the original infraction to hoops23 based on rule #1.
1.) No personal attacks or unwarranted name-calling. Just because someone has a different opinion doesn't mean they're an idiot.
Then it was reversed?

Yep, someone reversed it, so I lifted the ban.

The precedent has now been set that you can call someone a "Liberal piece of trash" without getting an infraction.

This is why the rules are broken.

Should redundancy be against the rules?

Some of this shit will happen simply because the rules are somewhat grey. By not making a laundry list of overly restrictive rules ala JJ, there will be a grey area by nature. It's just being exploited more because the mods are actually enforcing instead of being lax as fuck as the site spun out of control like we were for the past year. But we have the ability to reverse if other mods think it was BS. It all works out.

I believe that is the OC's reasoning behind reversing the infraction. 2 negatives equals a positive, so in OC logic this was a compliment.

JJ has less rules than the OC.

You mean like the unwritten rule that you can't call LJ an expert?

lol...JJ had a list of 23 or 24 rules. When they made the site free, they made a bit deal out of condensing them into 3 or 4 rules. But the old guard still enforced all those rules that supposedly no longer existed. The only place anything really changed there was on the surface --- but the enforcing and general douchebaggery stayed the same.

Or how about the unwritten rule that if you are not an North Dakota fan and you post in a North Dakota thread, you are banned. But if you are not a fan of an Ohio based team, you can troll, thread de-rail, etc. any thread you want.
