No he posts a lot and has a lot of reps. That means he is critical to the site.thavoice;1362682 wrote:Think fly4 has reprimanded me a few times, probably even given me a ban to the basement for a bit, but for the most part I dont notice him or her. Heck, maybe its a he/she.
But if he sent like_that to the basement for a week then I have a newfound respect for him/her/it. Like_that and bloviating j/o's like him are the bottom of the barrel type of garbage that ruin message boards and I say good riddance to that fool

The outrage is a built up thing, it's not like I care like that got a basement ban for a week. I Think my life will go on. I think.justincredible;1362672 wrote:I'm not trying to be pompous, or sarcastic. I'm just failing to understand all the outrage over one guy getting a one week basement ban. You make it seem like Fly4Fun is throwing out infractions left and right but he's not. Also, it's not like there is mass outrage over this. I'm not going to run the site based on a vocal minority. I get that some people don't like it, but a lot more people could not care less because it isn't that big of a deal. Maybe the one week ban will be enough to get like_that to chill out a little bit? If certain people decided to chill out a bit and not be dicks the site would be better. If people just got along we wouldn't even need moderators. Of course, this is all my opinion.
Just saying you're fucking crazy if you think F4F is a good mod that is making this place a better place to post.

I do think that like_that is a great member of the site. I don't think his reps or post count have anything to do with it, but he's a valuable member when he isn't being a dick. But that's just my opinion.

I got a week ban, I served it and that was it. It's not a big deal, just saying it's ridiculous someone bans someone on a forum for calling someone a school girl or whatever the hell like that said.justincredible;1362675 wrote:Remember when Raw Dawgin' It got a week ban?

And I think it's crazy to think that removing him as a mod is going to somehow magically make this place better.

His one week ban was based on a build up (you used it as an excuse for your outrage so I can use it here) of him ripping on Fly constantly. Sure, the post that "broke the camels back" was a little weak but it was infracted based on posting history. The fact that like_that had never been banned to the basement before shows how lenient we've been on him, I guess.SportsAndLady;1362695 wrote:I got a week ban, I served it and that was it.

Not saying I hate him or anything, but he as well as a few other believe the sites runs because of them. Saying QQ and Fail over and over doesn't exactly add to discussion.justincredible;1362693 wrote:I do think that like_that is a great member of the site.

Eh..removing him wont do anything to make the site better. If he goes too far and banishes a few people for some not-so-bad posts then so be it. Better than no accountability on here. He got be bannededededededed at least once. I think it was even for making fun of your name sportslady

I don't disagree with you. I'm just saying that when he isn't throwing around "Fail" and "QQ" he does add to the site.xKoToVxSyNdRoMe;1362708 wrote:Not saying I hate him or anything, but he as well as a few other believe the sites runs because of them.
