No-harrassment rules only apply to moderators. You cannot say anything about a moderator on these forums; even gentle ribbing. Moderators should have thicker skin but they are constantly given a free pass by the administration who applauds moderators who lay down the law rather than utilize proper enforcement.

Also in response to Justin's rule, these "posters" dont act like asshats then they wont get "harassed". Pretty simple to me, not my fault the board doesn't like ppl.

The whole "harrass" thing is blown way out of proportion too. Are people really that butthurt that they get backlash for making stupid comments or acting like a know it all douche? If so, perhaps they grow up and realize the internet is merely giving them feedback on how retarded they sound so they don't make the same mistakes in person. Instead of infractions, I think a simple "Thank you" is in order. :thumbup:

And once again, it's not trolling if its true. Telling ND fans that "so and so recruit" won't pan out because typically 5 star talents that go to ND never win a BCS bowl game or a Heisman(check the last 20 years for evidence). Literally, you could go into every ND thread and post the same thing over and over again because ND fans don't realize they sound absolutely retarded when they say shit like "Oh this is our year, we are going to win a BCS bowl" or "Man, this guy is really talented, he'll be a Heisman candidate in year 2". FALSE. :thumbup:

ND fans do the same thing to Ohio State threads, except they constantly have to mold their argument to circumvent any success that OSU has year in year out. With ND, nothing changes; therefore the logic still dictates they are not any good and they won't win anything.FatHobbit;1418477 wrote:What do you mean by "you could"? You did.

Fucking this.
You know how many times I get "harassed" on random threads about mike Sam and will, of the tow truck thing (see tigerfan's post just now), my Kansas bandwagon thing...name it. But I don't give a fuck because who cares? Anyone who complains about harassment on a forum is a straight loser and the admins shouldn't bend over for them.

The only way "harrass" should ever be infracted is if its seriously derailing the thread. If it derails the thread entirely, a mod can issue a warning to cut the shit. If the user continues to derail a thread, then a ban is in order. The way it's done now is a joke and seriously reeks of J-J-HUDDLE.

So you agree if you're warned to cut the shit and continue, that a ban is in order?sleeper;1418499 wrote:If it derails the thread entirely, a mod can issue a warning to cut the shit. If the user continues to derail a thread, then a ban is in order.

Also, I should clarify, I meant thread ban. The whole notion of "banning to the basement" is an absolute joke. Bans should be permanent with no posting rights and should be reserved for situations that violate TOS of the forum(porn is the easiest example).

I don't know why they were banned or if they were warned. But I do know that sleeper continuously trolls and/or derails many threads. (Anything Notre Dame or religion. There may be more topics but he definitely kills any thread along those lines.)like_that;1418514 wrote:Do you actually believe sleeper (or deydurkie previously) deserves to be basement bant for over 9 months?

You call it "killing", I call it "cornering the market of logic and reason and then looking down upon inferior arguments from my ivory tower". :thumbup:FatHobbit;1418520 wrote:I don't know why they were banned or if they were warned.

I look at it this way. Say User A makes a post about how gravity is false and that we are being held up rather than down by God and Jesus. I come in and give overwhelming amounts of evidence that highly correlate with gravity being real. User A continues to post his made up theories, just with different opinions and different angles while I continue to post the exact same evidence to every response. Why should I edit a perfectly rational response that's cited with overwhelmingly evidence to his point of view? That's a lot of work for little return and is completely unnecessary to have any deviation from my initial argument which is factual and logical accurate.FatHobbit;1418548 wrote:Call it whatever you like, but it's the reason why you are stuck in the basement.
Now take the same example, substitute User A talking about Notre Dame football and you'll quickly see my point of view and why its infallibility shouldn't be called into question ever again.
