if defenestrator did break the rules, are you not supposed to take it up with an admin in a pm, with a link pointing out where he broke the rules. I thourght that was the process by which these things were to be sorted out. this way flame wars are not started and it avoids posts like the one above. that way its better for everyone
You see this admins? defenstrator has said nothing so far that isn't offensive in anyway.
I would pm the admin, but as wished by JP, I am adressing it to the public. Besides, by posting it here, it shows just what kind of person defenstrator is.
One more thing, my name is Gilgamesh, I took the time to say your name right, please say mine right.
The problem with typing is you can't tell the tone of a persons voice. I assure you I am quite chill. Of cource I have no way of knowing if he's flipping out. But of cource I would like to consider it babysitting, but of course I really don't see anything really being done about it.
Your no angel yourself Gilg (nor am I, but thats irrelevent) however you are also not following the correct procedure in making a complaint. You shouldnt need to prove defenstrator's character, leave that to the admins.
That is all.
'oh yeah? he's thrown a kettle over a pub, what have you done?'
I agree, what JP did was wrong. But surely a warning system would be a far better punishment. Banning someone from the forums alone, or suspending them would be much better, and reform people.
Also, I believe Natress to be a hypocrit. Why? Because he spends alot of time in the forums trying to argue his left-wing views to people, but when it comes to actually running something he is Adolf Bloody Hitler.
That said I am middle wing, or you might say, a left wing authoritarian.
What does this have to do with this thread? Bugger all. What does the government of this site have to do with making games? Bugger all. What does JP's crime have to do with his potential game creation ability? Bugger all.
People may post their personal information in order to register to a site or service or generally to give their address out on their own website in the event that there is someone who wants to contact the author or send them something such as a donation, but if you go posting personal information of others without consent on an easily public accessible message board place such as this (or especially the server board for EQ I go to) where as there's a lot of immature or generally naughty people hanging around the shadows you're going to get into some real trouble such as that which I listed. It's against the forum rules on my server's board to post personal information, and I remember that when people found out real life information about people, such as living addresses, people who the forum didn't like to have around you would see lots of "Just signed him up to about a dozen porn spam mails." before the admin took the post with the information down.
CRUSH!!

Damien, your point of view is frankly ludicrous. I suppose you would suggest that if a man murders someone, he would merely be given a warning about it and asked not to do it again? Or perhaps allowed two warnings? What JP did was clearly wrong and action has been taken to prevent it happening again.
And HERE WE GO again with the "Adolf Hitler" line. Oh what joy and rapture. Maybe you would like to actually read some history books, or read Mein Kampf, and learn about what Hitler was really like. Then you'd probably think twice about comparing him to anyone running this site. Waltzing around branding anyone you disagree with as "Hitler" is blatantly naive and immature, showing that all you've done is watch a few comic book films and come to the conclusion that decisive action must equate to Nazism. Are you trying to suggest that a left wing politician would never be severe and quick to act?
As for what this has to do with game creation, you are correct in saying that this has nothing to do with it. But your comment "What does the government of this site have to do with making games?" confuses me a little, because last time I checked, Muz, Shab, Circy, Andi and myself are all actively creating games. And again this "crime" has nothing to do with JP's ability, but again, so what?
How dare you call me ridiculous. And even if I were ridiculous, what's wrong with that? Are you being fascist against ridiculous people? Are you, huh? Huh? What're you going to do? Put me in a camp with all the other ridiculous people? And turn me into soap, specially crafted for use on Circy's saggy bits?
And for your information, he did ask. OK, he didn't ask to be called Hitler... but I could tell it was in the subtext. He loves it really.
