I'm done with blatant trolling and assholes ruining it for everyone. I hate to do it, but I have to ban the worst offender to show I'm serious and to put all the others on alert. There may be others right behind them too. No less than 10 active members have left because of just one member. That math doesn't add up to an awesome forum. Things are going to change for the better and we're going to get back to having fun around here, or else!
No more trolling, no more pictures of crying babies, no more mall ninja pictures, no more avatars and sigs that are there only to annoy others, no more trying to infuriate Christians or atheists for no good reason, no more nit picking people's grammar to the point where they don't even want to post anymore. That time is over. If losing those things upsets you then you should look at yourself and ask why you are here. This is a place to trade and have fun, not have someone call you a whiner, a crybaby, a mall ninja, insult your intelligence, criticize your beliefs outside of a healthy debate, etc. Pardon my censored language, but it's just bull****.
I really donât care about anyoneâs complaints about fairness and censorship in regards to these policies. Iâm not running a country here, Iâm running a forum, and my goal is to keep it friendly and fun. If you have to throw your beliefs in someoneâs face whenever they are mentioned or start an argument whenever someone says clip instead of mag, you will be censored, cause thatâs just not fun anymore, and from now on goal numero uno is to have fun! Well, maybe numero dos, numero uno is trading!
I've always hated banning folks but I just have no choice. I've tried to make rules and workarounds to keep everyone happy, but it is readily apparent that that isn't going to work. Too many people that I really like are being run off because I won't do anything about it, and for that I apologize to everyone.
From now on I promise to listen to complaints a lot more than I have before, and moderators can request a vote anytime in the mod forum to request a ban, for which a 75% majority is needed. If I had listened to them a long time ago a lot of the members missing today would still be here.
If you know someone who left for the reasons I mentioned, let âem know Iâm sorry and that Iâm going to do something about it.
And for folks that need justification for the first ban, the vote was unanimous. Not a single vote against this ban.
Anyway, letâs get back to having some fun around here! Iâll round up some stuff for some Christmas giveawayâs this evening! (I know I at least have some t-shirts and Glock 33 rd mags.)
